Clear FiltersTadasana
ताड़ासन
Mountain Pose — the foundation of all standing poses. Teaches the body to stand with active alertness, improving posture, balance, and the foundational alignment carried through all other asanas.
Surya Namaskar
सूर्य नमस्कार
Sun Salutation — a complete 12-posture flowing sequence. Surya Namaskar addresses the whole body systematically, building heat, strength, and flexibility. It is the single most comprehensive practice in the yoga system.
Vrikshasana
वृक्षासन
Tree Pose — a balancing posture that develops concentration, coordination, and steadiness of mind. The challenge of balancing on one leg is a direct teacher of mental stillness.
Trikonasana
त्रिकोणासन
Triangle Pose — a full-body stretch that improves flexibility in the hips and spine, strengthens the legs, and stimulates digestion. Its open, expansive shape counteracts desk-work posture.
Virabhadrasana III
वीरभद्रासन III
Warrior III — a single-leg balance that demands total-body integration. Builds strength in the standing leg, core, and back while developing the concentration and proprioception that support spinal health.
Utkatasana
उत्कटासन
Chair Pose — a deep squat position that builds heat, strengthens the lower body, and stimulates the heart. The sustained demand on the quadriceps and glutes makes this an efficient posture for weight management.
Padahastasana
पादहस्तासन
Hand-to-Foot Pose — a deeper variation of Uttanasana where the hands are placed beneath the feet. The added weight of the hands pressing into the feet provides a unique feedback that deepens the spinal decompression and hamstring release.
Chakrasana
चक्रासन
Wheel Pose (Upward Bow) — the most complete backbend, opening the front of the body from ankles to throat. Stimulates the nervous system, reverses spinal compression, and is classically associated with rejuvenation and vitality.
Sarvangasana
सर्वांगासन
Shoulderstand — often called the 'Queen of Asanas'. 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.
Halasana
हलासन
Plough Pose — an inversion where legs extend over the head toward the floor. Provides an intense stretch to the entire posterior chain, stimulates the thyroid, and is one of the most effective postures for spinal elongation.
Sirsasana
शीर्षासन
Headstand — the 'King of Asanas'. Reverses the effects of gravity on the entire body, nourishes the brain and pituitary gland, strengthens the core and shoulder girdle, and produces profound mental clarity. Practised under supervision until mastered.
