A lying posture on the back. Supine work removes the balance demand entirely, which makes it the safest family for beginners, for the injured and for late-stage rehabilitation.
Hold: Hold for about 10 seconds. Beginners should build up to this rather than starting there; come out early if the breath becomes ragged.

The SEGA AI Judge System uses a movement-responsive scanning engine — the scoring window opens the moment the system detects the athlete entering the posture, not on an arbitrary countdown. For Reclined Giant Pose, the scanning trigger works as follows:
Once the trigger fires, the AI evaluates Execution (form geometry), Stability (centre-of-gravity control across the 10-second hold) and Difficulty (multiplied by the SEGA Tariff of 9.0) to produce the final score. The full tamper-evident record is written to the SEGA World Ranking archive.
Master Segar’s Siddha lineage teaches that every asana affects specific vital points and energy pathways in the body. This is the traditional understanding of Reclined Giant Pose according to Varma Kalai and Siddha medicine.
This is a wellness description drawn from the Siddha tradition. It is not a medical claim. For clinical guidance please consult a registered healthcare professional or Prof. Master Segar Guru — a registered Siddha practitioner.
All asanas should be practised with breath awareness, gradual progression, and — where possible — under the guidance of a qualified teacher. If you have any injury, medical condition, are pregnant, or are new to yoga, please consult a qualified instructor before attempting this pose.
