Question

We have a karate dojo. At the end of class, we gradually wind down the taiso over five minutes, with gentle joint movements and gentle stretching as well. Then we sit in seiza for three minutes, closing one nostril ten times, then doing the same with the other, and afterward maintaining the state. What is negative about seiza? Thank you.
