Moon Sequence Poster: Chandra Krama

Description

This sequence is designed for maximum accessibility for practitioners of any level. It is particularly designed for beginning students, experienced students who want to add variety to their routine, or those who just want a gentler practice for whatever reason.

For experienced practitioners Chandra Krama is intended for practice on the full moon and the new moon. Practicing an alternative gentle sequence at these times of the month is ideal so you can avoid strain and injury. It is also helpful to become aware of your changing internal condition as influenced by the waxing and waning moon. This sequence is also recommended when you are feeling tired or incapable of doing your regular practice. Practiced with patience Chandra Krama is rewarding and strengthening.

Although there are no jumps in this sequence the core principles of movement and breath are maintained. The emphasis of Chandra Krama is on the hips and mid-section of the body, with decreased emphasis on upper body strength and the knees. The Moon sequence is a great alternative if you find the particular focus in the traditional series has caused some instability, injury, or is simply unsuitable for you. This has therapeutic benefits, giving you the chance to continue a regular practice without adding further strain or injury to a problem. You will give your body the chance to heal, and you can then step back into your regular practice sooner rather than later.

This large 22″ in x 34″ in black and white poster has clear, easy to follow details of all the relevant movements and breaths between postures.
