What is Astavakrasana (Eight-Angle Pose)?
Astavakrasana, or Eight-Angle Pose, is a modern arm balancing yoga asana. This pose requires immense power in the core, back, and arms to balance the body sideways on your arms for even a couple of seconds. This is not a pose for everyone since it demands advanced arm and core strength.
During the eight-angle pose practice, your arms are bent like Chaturanga arms, and your body is balanced sideways on one arm at a time. This pose is perfect for building mind-to-muscle connection, and at the same time, it helps you tone your whole body.
