seiza
Formal Japanese sitting position. Formed by kneeling on the floor and then resting the buttocks on the heels, keeping the legs folded under the thighs and the top side of the feet flat on the ground.
If the legs are folded out to either side, it's wariza instead. If they are only to one side, it's called yokozuwari. If it's done while bowing, it's zarei.
