Bird of paradise is a pose with a fanciful name that involves some fancy footwork. This pose usually follows bound side angle in a sequence. Try it out when your feeling adventurous and your hamstrings are warm.
Bonus points! Anyone know the Sanskrit name for this pose? Leave it in the comments.
I always refer to it as a krama for standing visvamittrasana
Umm…I think it’s called “Svarga Dvijasana”, right?.
I also think the Sanskrit name for Bird of Paradise is Svarga Dvidasana
I’ve referred to the pose as Svarga Dvijasana..
Visvamittrasana is a completely different pose.
The Bird of Paradise in Sanskrit is: Svarga Dvidasana. A great pose for balance, strength and flexibility.
svarga dvidasana, I believe is the sanskrit name for this pose.
