Join us in exploring Ardha Chandrasana (Half Moon Pose). Prashant Iyengar has introduced the concept of an "Index Pose". The Index Pose is interwoven between other poses to experience the physical, physiological and mental effects of the sequence on the Index Pose. We will use a supported Ardha Chandrasana as our Index Pose and watch it evolve as we progress through the class.

Open to Level 2 and 3 students who are stable in Sirsasana and Sarvangasana for approximately 5 minutes.
