Guest guest Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 What are folks' favorite series of asanas for a given yoga practice? I'm interested to know. My own personal favorite is: Downward Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana) Standing Forward Bend (Uttanasana) Four-Limbed Staff (Chaturanga) Upward Facing Dog (Urdhura Mukha Svanasana) Downward Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana) Warrior I & II (Virabhadrasana I & II) Extended Triangle (Utthita Trikonasana) Revolved Side Angle w/Hands in Prayer (Parivrtta Parsvakonasana with hands in Anjali Mudra) Forward Lunge, forward bending variation with hands on either side of foot (Modified Anjaneyasana) Standing Split (Urdhva Prasarita Ekapadasana) Seated Spinal Twist or Half Lord of the Fishes (Ardha Matsyendrasana) Seated Ankle-to-Knee Forward Bend (Modified Paschimottanasana) Compass Pose (Surya Yantrasana) Pigeon (Eka Pada Rajakapotasana) Downward Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana) Forearm Stand or Peacock Feather (Pincha Mayurasana) Headstand (Salamba Sirsasana) Downward Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana) Forward Lunge with Knee on Ground (Modified Anjaneyasana) Monkey Pose (Hanumanasana) Downward Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana) Camel (Ustrasana) Plank (High Chaturanga) Locust Pose (Salabhasana) Bow Pose (Dhanurasana) Wheel (Urdhva Dhanurasana) Little Boat (Pavana Muktasana or Apanasana) Squat (Modified Malasana [garland pose] / Namaskarasana [prayer pose]) Seated Forward Bend (Paschimottansansa) Shoulder Stand (Sarvangasana) Plow (Halasana) Fish (Matsyasana) Corpse (Savasana) I do this one a lot, but would like to change it up a bit so that I don't neglect the benefits of other poses. Any input would be appreciated. Rob Petrone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
