Week 5: Learning and Practicing Iyengar Yoga for Beginners

Описание: At first glance Week 5 sequence looks like it has a whole lot of asanas. However on practising you will notice most of it to prepare the shoulders and legs to do full Salamba Sarvangasana. The previous weeks we did Eka Pada sarvangasana learning to lift one leg away from the wall in Ardha halasana. This week we will take both legs off the wall.
