Video of the Week: Happy Baby Pose Nina Zolotow This pose is an excellent hip opener, as it deeply folds your hip joints, improves the rotation of your thighbones in the joints, and stretches the inner thigh muscles, which can increase your range of motion in these directions. And even though your knees are bent, many of you will also feel some stretch in your hamstrings. Happy Baby pose is a good preparation for poses that also include similar hip movements, such as Extended Side Angle pose, Sage’s Twist 3 (Marichyasana 3), Lunge pose, Cobbler’s pose (Baddha Konasana), Seated Wide Angle Pose (Upavista Konasana), and Garland Pose (Malasana).
