Monkey Pose      Monkey pose (Hanumanasana), is the yogic name to the famous front splits: a beautiful posture that requires dedication, flexibility and patience.   Monkey Pose stretches your entire lower body, including your thighs, hamstrings and groin. It also stimulates the abdominal organs and engages your core. While some yogis can still whip out a Monkey Pose without a lot of warm up or effort, most yogis will be challenged. That’s because the pose is very demanding on the hamstrings, glutes and groin. For people who are naturally flexible—meaning that they have long hamstrings—this is a non-issue. But regular folks tend to have shorter muscles in the back of the legs and inside the pelvis. So, think of this pose as a progression. When you try it, go almost to your edge—but not quite—and then back off a bit to keep your legs safe and healthy in Monkey Pose.

  Four-limbed staff pose        The Four-limbed staff pose (chaturanga dandasana),  is an advanced level yoga pose that is focused on improving the upper body strength as well as core stability. It is also called the four-limbed staff pose.         Chaturanga dandasana is a move that combines the benefits of a low plank and a push-up, and can often be tricky to master. It has many benefits, most important being adding strength, making the core stable and improving flexibility.  Four-limbed staff pose is especially useful in strengthening the wrists, arms and shoulders.   Start with a shorter time frame and gradually increase it. You can hold this pose for 10 seconds at first, and then do it for a while each time depending on your comfort. Low plank

Tree pose     Tree pose (Vrikshasana), is a standing pose in yoga that requires balance and coordination.   This yoga pose involves tucking one leg into the other while your hands are in a prayer position, resembling a tree. This pose can improve balance, stability and strengthen your core.   There are a few benefits to tree pose , such as:   1. Stretches your feet. Tree pose can help stretch and strengthen the ligaments and tendons in your feet.   2. Improves balance. Tree pose requires proper weight distribution and posture, which can help provide stability to your groin, thighs, hips and pelvis.   3. Strengthens your core.

  Goddess pose    Goddess pose is considered highly beneficial for the body because it strengthens the muscles of the legs, gluteus, calves and ankles. It simultaneously stretches and opens the hips and chest and lengthens the spine. It is a powerful, warming and energizing posture, stimulating the respiratory and cardiovascular systems.  It is also a strengthening posture, particularly for the lower body.  To enter this pose, begin standing in a wide stance with the toes turned out and the knees bent, bringing the lower body into a wide-legged squat. For a deeper variation, the heels may be lifted off the ground.   A variety of hand and arm positions may be used for this pose, including raising the arms overhead shoulder-distance apart or with the palms touching. The hands can also be placed in prayer position at the heart center or may rest on the hips or thighs. Utkata Konasan     

Camel Pose        Camel Pose  (Ustrasana), is a powerful and energizing back-bend that works your whole body and balances your chakras.      It’s a great counterbalance to forward bends.     Although it’s best not to approach it exactly like a back-bend, it is more about stretching your hips forward, lifting up your heart and drawing your shoulders back.     Hold The Pose For 1 To 3 min.
