Primary Series: Asana Names - 1

4/12/2017

0 Comments

 
In the past weeks we made our way through the names of the fundamental asanas! So... now it's time to get to the names of the primary series. Today we will start with the name of the first asana of the primary series. Excited? Alright! Here we go!  

HUZZAH!

Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana

All these words have popped up before in the fundamental asanas. I am sure you can actually puzzle this together yourself  - I believe in you!

Thus, before checking out the name.... go back to the fundamental asana names, I am sure you can easily puzzle this one together then! For checking whether you got it right, you can then (not before) scroll down below the photos.

What do you think about Nick? 
​I think he's got it all figured out!
