Sieza Sitting Type

The Sieza sitting position is very common in Japan. This position requires one to sit on their legs. This is a position of sitting needed for many ceremonies and rituals. And this requirement presents a challenge for foreigners.

Seiza requires a level of flexibility to master. However, the option of crossing one’s legs in front is also available. Both are not easy to execute. And this makes it difficult for foreigners to participate in ceremonies properly.
