Monkey pose or Hanumanasana in sanskrit is about turning the awareness within to find courage and energy of intense devotion to overcome obstacles. Maintaining this quality of inner sincerity when practicing yoga, the mind and the heart expand, the body releases tension and moves into a magnificent pose. According to Hindu legend, Hanuman or Monkey deity is the son of the Wind. His inspirational story of accomplishing the impossible leap into the Himalaya’s shows us that power, strength and flexibility come from the devotion into the heart.

Namaste.
