Dancer Pose

Sanskrit: Natarajasana

(not-ah-raj-AHS-anna)

nata = actor, dancer, mime

raja = king

Also known as the Lord of the Dance Pose. This pose is fun and safe for beginners, but take it slow, using progressions to get into the proper alignment. A perfect peak pose! Grab a strap, wall or chair to balance as a beginner in this posture.

Listen & enjoy!

What are Vayus energy centers in the body? Learning about Ayurveda & Chakras was just the beginning...now let’s dig into Vayus! Vayu literally translates to wind.

The five subdivisions of vayu are as follows:

1. Prana vayu - Situated in the head, this is the fundamental energy. Governs the reception of everything from air to food, from senses to thoughts.

2. Apana vayu - Active in the pelvic and lower abdominal areas. Improves digestion, elimination and reproduction.

3. Vyana vayu - Governs the heart and lungs, and supports the function of other vayus.

4. Udana vayu - Situated in the throat region. Promotes self-expression and growth.

5. Samana vayu - Present in the abdomen with the navel as its energy base. Governs digestion of everything from food to thoughts.

Balancing the vayus while practicing yoga poses not only promotes physical strength, but also helps the practitioner move closer to their spiritual aspirations.

Prevent injuries of the wrists and hands with Hasta Bandha by preventing strain because the body's weight is spread evenly through the hand, employing the palm's natural arch to balance the body's weight and connect the body with the earth through the fingertips. Some yogis practice hasta bandha with the pads of the fingers pressed into the earth, all the way to the palm and the inner arch of the palm lifted just slightly.

Bandhas can completely change your yoga practice! Bandhas are energy locks within the body, they help compress and “lock” in prana or life force energy. They also help to enhance your practice in a huge way!

Today we discuss the 3 main Bandhas: Mula Bandha (Root Lock), associated with the pelvic floor, pushes energy up toward your navel while also preventing too much of it from leaking out; Uddiyana Bandha, associated with your core, moves energy farther up; and Jalandhara Bandha, located at the throat, pushes energy down and prevents too much energy from escaping.

As a beginner, you may have noticed a standard standing sequence at the beginning of class. Typically, classes have some variation of one of the most popular yoga sequences called Surya Namaskara or Sun Salutations. There are 3 set sequences, A,B,C. However, there are a bunch of fun variations to play with! They are all perfect for warming up the body, these salutes can be gentle or intense. You can do them as a full practice - as we do today or just as a warm up! Just don’t skip Savasana!

Since they’re so popular, you can find them online and see pictures sequences of the sun salutations! I’ll also link up my website’s blog as well!

Meet you on the mat!
