Parivrtta Ardha Chandrasana

Parivrtta Ardha Chandrasana[1] is an Asana. It is translated as Revolved Half Moon Pose from Sanskrit. It is a twisting variation of Ardha Chandrasana.

The name of this pose comes from "parivrtta" meaning "revolved", "ardha" meaning "half", "chandra" meaning "moon", and "asana" meaning "posture" or "seat".

  1. It promotes a sense of balance.
  2. Stimulates the internal organs.
  3. Stretches hamstrings and the outside of the thighs.

Cautions

  • Be careful while doing this pose if you have any spinal injuries, high blood pressure, hamstring injuries, or ankle injuries.
