Trikonasana (TREE-kone-AA-SUN-aa) — is an asana (posture) that activates and moves energy through the entire body by stretching the side body and challenging the balance. This asana is named from the Sanskrit words, Trikona, meaning triangle, and asana. The photo you see above is Triangle Pose in its traditional form. There are many variations of triangle pose that may be more accessible than what is shown in this picture (including seated versions and versions with props). Join me for a clinic: Workshopping Trikonasana on November 15th at 1:00. Register here: https://feelthepeaceyoga.lynsirota.com/offerings. This workshop is free to current series students and open to non-series students.
