Ardha Chandrasana: Stability, Balance & Neck Rotation – Weekly Advanced Class 388

This class offers a detailed and progressive exploration of Ardha Chandrasana (Half Moon Pose), with a particular focus on stability and balance. While consolidating foundational techniques, it addresses a common challenge many practitioners face-turning the head to look upward while maintaining balance. This action often destabilises the pose, so the class introduces supported variations using a chair, then a block and wall, to isolate and refine the head-turning action in a stable environment. Step by step, these preparatory stages build confidence, balance, and neck mobility, leading to a more composed and integrated experience of the full pose. The techniques presented will help make Ardha Chandrasana feel steadier and more accessible, while enhancing both alignment and freedom in the upper body.
