Figures of plastic Classic Toy soldiers have been adored among boys for ages. They were used for all kind of war games and battle strategies, but the last thing on your mind when you think on these rigid, plastic pieces is probably yoga. Dan Abramson did exactly the last thing on our minds when it comes to toy soldiers and put them in various yoga positions, making otherwise rigid soldiers, look doing them with a grace and ease.
Check in the gallery below firefly, advanced side plank, scorpion, peacock, king pigeon — mermaid arm variation, and lotus headstand — spherical helmet variation which are very advanced poses in yoga and part of a Abramson’s recent work, as well as some classics such as headstands, and downward-facing dog which dating from 2014.

“My hope is that advanced yoga joes inspire beginners to reach for the stars or, at the very least, to reach for their foot backward over their head. “
“hope they inspire seasoned yoga masters to expand their own practice by showing off next to them on Instagram.”
“but whatever your skill level, I truly hope they inspire calm and focus, and hopefully more than a few smiles and laughs.”
Let me just stretch here on this hard rock
Head stand? Sure no prob
Can you do this? I can
Even the lizards are impressed
Head stand on top of the earth
I’m not even scared
No war, do Yoga
Great exercise for your lower back
Now relax at the end and steady your breathing
