What is Firefly I?

Tittibhasana A is a named arm-balance variation. Lettered Firefly forms differ across sources, so confirm the intended shape with a qualified teacher before practicing.

How should this posture be approached?

This page does not provide a lift-off sequence. Learn the specific setup and exit under direct supervision.

  • Keep the hands grounded while learning placement; do not jump.
  • Use a clear padded area and avoid placing the face near hard surfaces.
  • Stop for wrist, shoulder, or hip pain, numbness, or loss of control.
  • Leave the legs bent rather than forcing extension if a teacher has approved a supported variation.

What is a lower-demand alternative?

Use a supported squat with hands on blocks, or practice a stable hands-and-knees position.

Common question: Are all Tittibhasana A cues identical?

No. Verify the particular lineage or method before detailed instructions are added.
