Externally Rotated Standing Poses #2

To square or not to square the hips? There is confusion amongst yoga teachers and students when it comes to Virabhadrasana 2 (Warrior 2) and other Externally Rotated Standing Poses, such as Utthita Parsvakonasana (Extended Side Angle Pose) and Utthita Trikonasana (Triangle Pose). If we square the pelvis in these poses, it is quite difficult and if not impossible to truly line up sitting bone to knee to second toe of the front leg. Also, attempting to square the hips, tucking inevitable happens resulting in compression of the si joint(s). So, the answer is: Please do not square your hips. Allow the back hip to come forward enough so that you can line up front knee with second toe.
