    Bhujangasana (Cobra Pose)
    This posture promotes flexibility in the spine and encourages the chest to open.


    Dolphin Plank Pose
    A modification of Plank Pose, Dolphin Plank Pose strengthens and tones the core, thighs, and arms.


    Sukhasana (Easy Pose)
    Don't let the name fool you. If you're used to sitting in chairs, Sukhasana can be quite challenging.


    Uttana Shishosana (Extended Puppy Pose)
    A cross between Child's Pose and Downward Facing Dog. This pose lengthens the spine and calms the mind.


    Kapotasana (King Pigeon Pose)
    Invigorates your body and gives your spirits a lift. An extremely deep backbend appropriate for advanced practitioners only.

    Setu Bandha Sarvangasana (Bridge Pose)
    Calms the brain and rejuvenates tired legs.


    Utkatasana (Chair Pose)
    Chair Pose clearly works the muscles of the arms and legs, but it also stimulates the diaphragm and heart.

    Cow Pose is an easy, gentle way to warm up the spine.


    Dolphin Pose
    A nice shoulder-opening. Also strengthens the core, arms, and legs.


    Utthita Hasta Padangustasana (Extended Hand-To-Big-Toe Pose)
    Maintaining solid grounding through the standing foot helps keep you steady.


    Ardha Bhekasana (Half Frog Pose)
    This pose is more than a backbend; it opens the shoulders, chest, and thighs all at once.


    Anjali Mudra (Salutation Seal)
    Practicing Anjali Mudra is an excellent way to induce a meditative state of awareness.


    Dandasana (Staff Pose)
    It might look easy, but there's more to Staff Pose than meets the eye.


    Urdhva Mukha Svanasana (Upward-Facing Dog)
    Upward-Facing Dog will challenge you to lift and open your chest.


    Dwi Pada Viparita Dandasana (Upward Facing Two-Foot Staff Pose )
    Can you practice Wheel with straight arms and Headstand without strain? Then, you're ready.


    Purvottanasana (Upward Plank Pose)
