AsanasTadasana (Mountain Pose): The Foundation of Every Standing Asana
A still, upright stance that trains posture, balance and quiet attention — the starting point of almost every standing practice.
AsanasVrikshasana (Tree Pose): Balance, Focus and Steady Nerves
Stand on one leg like a tree — rooted, tall and still. This classic balancing asana sharpens concentration and strengthens the standing leg.
AsanasTrikonasana (Triangle Pose): Length, Space and a Strong Waist
A wide-legged side stretch that opens the chest, lengthens the hamstrings and teaches you to extend rather than collapse.
AsanasVirabhadrasana I (Warrior I): Strength with an Open Heart
A powerful lunge that builds stamina in the legs, opens the hip flexors and lifts the chest toward the sky.
AsanasVirabhadrasana II (Warrior II): Open Hips and Steady Gaze
A wide, grounded warrior that strengthens the legs, opens the inner thighs and trains you to stay calm in effort.
AsanasUtkatasana (Chair Pose): Fire in the Legs, Lift in the Spine
Sit back into an invisible chair. This heat-building pose strengthens the thighs, ankles and core while teaching you not to collapse the chest.
AsanasPadahastasana (Hand-to-Foot Pose): A Standing Forward Fold for the Spine
Fold from the hips, let the head hang, and give the hamstrings and lower back a long, quiet stretch.
AsanasUtthita Parsvakonasana (Extended Side Angle): A Long Line of Strength
From a warrior stance, the side body becomes one diagonal — a deep stretch for the hips, waist and shoulders.
AsanasVajrasana (Thunderbolt Pose): The Sitting Asana You Can Do After Meals
A simple kneeling seat that steadies the mind and is traditionally practised after eating to support digestion.
AsanasPadmasana (Lotus Pose): A Steady Seat for Meditation
The classic meditation seat. Hips open, spine tall, mind settles — but only when the knees are ready. Approach it patiently.
AsanasSukhasana (Easy Pose): A Comfortable Seat for Breath and Stillness
Cross the shins, sit tall, and let the practice begin. The most welcoming seat for pranayama, chanting and short meditation.
AsanasBaddha Konasana (Bound Angle / Butterfly Pose): Open Hips, Quiet Mind
Soles of the feet together, knees dropping out — a classic hip opener that also soothes the lower back and pelvic region.
