Three Legged Dog
In Sankrit this yoga posture is named, " Tri Pada Adho Mukha Svanasana".
I think that this style of figure shows "tribal" influence.
I took yoga classes for about twenty, twenty five, years, from the 70's into the 90's. I seldom do yoga sessions now. But, at times, I am aware of my body, like when I am waiting for the coffee to brew, and do Mountain Pose, just standing straight and balanced with deep breathing. I used to do Mountain Pose while waiting in lines.
I can still touch my toes. I was never able to do a head stand without propping my feet against the wall. The yoga practice that i did is still benefiting me. I think that it taught me more self awareness, and more awareness in general. The practice taught me what little poise that I possess.
These days my exercise is gardening. This is a nice work out for my age. Bending, stooping, hoeing, shoveling. Sometimes i think that i should do more yoga, then i think, that i should not should on myself.
