In Runner's Lunge, what is the cue for the right foot position?

• A. Raise the right heel off the mat
• B. Toe heel your right foot to the top right corner of your mat
• C. Keep the right foot flat in place
• D. Turn the right foot out to the side

Answer: (B)

Front-foot placement creates a stable, aligned base in Runner's Lunge. The cue to toe-heel your right foot to the top right corner of your mat guides that alignment by positioning the front foot diagonally so the knee tracks over the ankle, the hips stay square, and the spine lengthens. This setup fosters balance and knee safety as you deepen the lunge. Lifting the heel shifts weight and destabilizes the arch; keeping the foot flat misses the diagonal alignment that supports the pose; turning the foot out to the side can twist the knee and hip and disrupt stability.
