Chaturanga dandasana known as plank pose derives from sanskrit translated as four limb staff pose. The sanskrit names reveals that all four limbs are activated and the body should be as stiff as a stick. This seemingly easy pose requires an immense amount of strength and activation of the core muscles as well as shoulder strength and stability. The posture is used as a transition typically in vinyasa and ashtanga and can be repeated numerous times during the practice and because of the repetition it is important to learn to do chaturanga in the correct and safe way. Every person performs this asana in their own way considering the strength and limitations of their body.In this workshop we are going to break down chaturanga anatomically to establish a foundation for chaturanga considering the individual challenges one might have. Then we will learn to do chaturanga step by step in order to engage the objective for this asana. We will explore the right way of doing the chaturanga and look at the common cues, alignment and the benefits.
