Yoga PosesDancers Pose (Natarajasana)Nata means dancer; Raja means lord or king. This beautiful pose is dedicated to Siva, Lord of the Dance, who is the fountain and source of Yoga. It is a great pose to challenge your balance, as well as stretch the front side of the body.

Extended Angle Pose - Adapted (Utthita Parsvakonasana)Parsva means side and kona is an angle. This is a fantastic lateral stretch (for the side of the body). Stretch the whole length of the torso and straight leg while breathing deeply will leave you feeling invigorated and just a little bit taller!
Extended Hand to Big Toe Sequence (Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana)This is a great and very challenging sequence, moving through Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana, as well as variations on the pose. Each variation stretches the legs differently and challenges your ability to remain anchored as you balance on one foot.
Firefly Pose (Tittibhasana A)Firefly is beautiful to watch and a challenge to move into and maintain. It requires a lot of strength in the arm and shoulders, as well as the hip flexors, which straighten the legs. On top of that, the hamstrings and lower back must be very flexible.
