Chaturanga

What is Chaturanga?

In Vinyasa Yoga, Chaturanga Dandasana (Four-Limbed Staff Pose) is a part of Sun Salutations A and B. Sometimes referred to as a yoga push-up, Chaturanga can strengthen nearly all muscles in the body when performed correctly.

How do you do Chaturanga?

  • ステップ1

    Step your feet back and curl your toes under to come to plank position. Make sure your wrists align under your shoulders and avoid collapsing into your chest or letting your hips sink down.

専門家のコメント

I often ask my students to slow down their chaturanga and suggest that they practice the pose away from the context of sun salutations.

I highly recommend to practice the modifications most suited to you at this point of your journey, and take the time to build the real strength and understanding of the pose. Don't let the complexities of the pose dampen your spirit and try not to get disheartened if you're not at the full pose just yet.
