@littlebeanbag Thanks for your comment. This variation is not from the primary series and the hip rotation was taught to me by a Sivananda instructor. It's taught both ways as the open hip has lead to wearing of the head of the femur bone for some practitioners. I was a little resistant to this version myself at first and now transition from turning down to opening up when teaching. Each student finds his/her own natural alignment more easily this way. Namaste!

this is the totally incorrect set up for the legs and hips in triangle. you do not want your back hip to face the floor at all, in fact you want the hips to remain open and face the side.
