To hold poses in yoga effectively, the most relevant skill-related factors would be **balance, agility, and coordination**. Here's a brief overview of why these factors are important:
- **Balance**: Many yoga poses require the practitioner to maintain stability, often on one leg or in other non-grounded positions.
- **Agility**: While not as critical as balance, agility can help with transitioning between poses smoothly.
- **Coordination**: This is essential for synchronizing breath with movement, as well as maintaining bodily alignment in poses.
While muscular strength and flexibility are also important for overall performance in yoga, the skill-related factors listed originally are more directly tied to holding poses effectively.
