Ankle Stretches for Sitting in Seiza

by michelle

When my son sits in seiza his ankles do not stretch far enough to lie flat on the floor.  Do you know any exercises to stretch the ankles so that he can sit comfortably in seiza?


Answer: I personally don’t know the way we stretch ankles for seiza. I have to turn this to people who actually know about this.  Sorry.

If you know anything about this, please post. I am sure many people have the same problems.

All I can say is to lengthen the time of seiza. The more you do, the ankles get used to. I think.
