Downward-Facing Dog
One of the most recognised yoga postures and an excellent full-body stretch. Downward Dog is both a resting pose and an active posture that builds strength and flexibility simultaneously.
Warrior II
A powerful standing pose that builds stamina, strength, and concentration. Warrior II opens the hips and chest while building heat and cultivating mental fortitude.
Boat Pose
A core-strengthening posture that builds abdominal and lower back strength, stimulates the kidneys and intestines, and improves digestion. The definitive posture for building Manipura (solar plexus) fire.
Garland Pose (Squat)
A deep squat that opens the hips, groin, and lower back while stimulating digestion. Malasana is the natural human resting posture found in most traditional cultures — and largely lost to chair-sitting.
Shoulderstand
Often called the 'Queen of Asanas', Shoulderstand nourishes the thyroid and parathyroid glands, reverses blood flow, calms the nervous system, and is one of the most powerful postures for whole-body health.
