You are suffering from what is commonly called as knock knee problem. I really do not understand what you mean by the brisk asana so I am going to give you the information that I am aware of and that I know will work for your problem. Yoga does help to improve the knock knee condition but you need to be really dedicated to your yoga practice for achieving the desired results. Do not expect to see the results overnight. Practice regularly and correctly and you will see a great difference in not just your knees but also the entire body. Do remember that all the asanas need to be done in a slow systematic manner. You can practice the Virabhadra asana I and II or the Warrior Pose I and II, and the Trikonasana or the triangle pose.
  • Virabhadra asana I or the Warrior Pose I – This asana or pose focus and targets your neck, shoulders, lungs, chest, stomach, groin, thighs, knees, calves and ankles stretching and strengthening them. It is considered beneficial in treating knock knees and sciatica.
  • Virabhadra asana II or the Warrior Pose II - This asana or pose helps to strengthen and stretch the chest, lungs, shoulders, groin, legs, knees and ankles. It also increases your stamina and stimulates your stomach muscles. Helps to treat back pain, carpel tunnel syndrome, knock knees, flat feet, osteoporosis, infertility and sciatica.
Other yoga asanas or postures those are beneficial for your knees are as mentioned below:
  • Shavasana or the Corpse Pose – This helps to fully relax your body and brings about a sense of calm and peace. It helps to rejuvenate your body and relaxes it completely after the yoga asanas or poses.
  • Pavanmuktasana or the Wind RelievingPose – this asana or pose as the name suggests helps to get rid of excess gas in your body. But along with that it also helps to exercise your knees.
  • Trikonasana or the Triangle Pose – This asana or pose stretches and strengthens your leg muscles and knees. It relieves the tension from your muscles and is helpful in improving the condition of knock knees.
  • Salabhasana or the Locust Pose – This asana or pose works mainly on the lower part of your body. It also helps to strengthen your legs and tone them and relieves stress as well. This does seem like a very easy posture but it is not as easy as it looks. It will greatly improve your posture as well.
