VYAGRASANA

TIGER POSE
When i used to work in school as yoga teacher ,this was one among the kids favorite poses.They loved roaring like lion when doing the second part of the pose.... METHOD:
  • Sit in vajrasana and come to kneeling position just like cat pose.
  • Inhale and stretch the right leg back,in such a way that its parallel to the ground.
  • Then bend the right knee and point the toes towards the head and raise the chin high.
  • Now exhale and bring the knee under the chest.( photo courtesy from book yoga education for children)
  • Lower the chin so that the nose touches the knee.
  • Repeat this process about 5-6 times and then practise with the other leg.
BENEFITS:
  1. This excersises the spine.
  2. Tones reproductive organs.
  3. Reduces excess fat in hip,abdomen and thighs.
