8 Essential Standing Poses – Weekly Intermediate Class 283

This class condenses eight essential standing poses into a 40 minute practice session. Consolidate basic standing poses whilst shedding new light on more challenging poses such as virabhadrasana III. Explore some shoulder opening variations of parsvottanasana. Standing poses are ideal poses to concentrate on when you have a limited amount of time in which to practice. They help to combat stress, boost energy and maintain strength and flexibility. Keeping your practice simple during times when you have a busy schedule can be helpful in terms of maintaining your home practice momentum. Regular but short practice sessions such as this one may be more beneficial than complicated sequences that demand extra time.
