I want to discover the various sitting position of human while sitting on the floor.?

Question

Please help me to identify the scientific names of that sitting position too.

Answer 1

try yoga, get some yoga DVD's

Answer 2

Nothing scientific or Yoga-esque just something I do.

I sit in a 'T' position. It's nothing I've been taught but something I just did naturally as a child and therefore do now. Backside on floor, thighs upto the knees touching together, then left lower leg facing out to the left, and right facing out to the right. Eventually you end up with the soles of the feet facing outwards. Thus you're sitting in a 'T' shape.

:-)

Answer 3

i like to sit criss-cross-apple-sauce! :D

Answer 4

Child's pose, resting pose, tortoise shell.

Answer 5

Scientific names? I never thought of sitting positions to have scientific names.

To me, it depends how your body's built and your fitness, like muscle/bone structure and positioning, etc.

I can think of cross legged, sitting with your legs under you (toes pointed or sitting on your heel), with your whole leg crossed over the other (like a stretching pose), legs straight out, legs bent and set to the side with legs opposite each other and only thighs touching (painful for some). I'm lazy to think of others at the moment, so yeah.
