Yoga in chess?

What about yoga in chess? Ace Mary, in yogic sitting position, is in deep thought (or meditation) in a recent tournament in Edang, Pasay City. His sitting style seemed to be effective since he landed on the second spot in the said tournament, only after Paulo Bersamina (sitting next, blurred), the tournament's champion.

I really don't know if there is a prescribed sitting position in chess tournaments.




But what about a standing position? This photo can be aptly titled "Find the difference." Ren-Ren Villar litterally stands out among all the players since he's the only one standing.

What really matters, I suppose, is the comfort in your position, whether in your sitting or standing position, and much better of course in your position over the board.
