Bhujangasana (Cobra Pose) is a heart-opening backbend that allows you to stretch your entire upper body. You cau adjust the intensity of the backbend by straightening or bending your elbows to suit your needs This pose is typically practiced early in class as a warm-up and precursor to more intense backbends, including Urdhva Mukha Svanasana (Upward-Facing Dog Pose) and Ustrasana (Camel) Bhujanga, the Sanskrit word for snake, is derived from the root bhuj, which means “to bend or curve.” The king cobra, revered in Indian myths, can glide forward while lifting the upper third of its body upright. When you practice Cobra Pose, try to emulate this animal’s powerful yet fluid motion when you practice. Imagine your legs as the snake’s tail, reaching long behind you as you curve your spine to lift your chest majestically. Cobra can help you set a strong foundation for more complex backbends like Urdhva Dhanurasana (Upward-Facing Bow Pose) by teaching you how to properly engage your legs, pelvis, and abdominal muscles. #bhujangasana #cobrapose #aerialyoga #anahatasanakoridalos #aerialyoga #yoga #yogapose
