Ukata Asana = Fierce Pose
🔥Fierce embodies qualities of passion, intensity, and fire; these are all the elements of utkatasana.
If we are only teaching with English, these elements of the asana get lost in translation.
Sanskrit is so much more than language, it’s a vibration, it’s a wisdom and it’s a form that brings to life the story of the practice ✨
I LOVE teaching with Sanskrit - it gives each moment so much more meaning. I am not ignorant enough to think that my pronunciation is perfect! Language matters and I want to give context to the practice beyond the physicality.
Do you use, know or teach with Sanskrit names?
