Peak Pose - Archer Pose -Standing and Seated poses" on Google)

Breath plays an essential role in vinyasa yoga sequences. The smooth flow of the body between poses can only be done when the breathing is right. When this coordination has been achieved the body and mind can work together to remain in balance.A vinyasa flow that focuses on peak poses requires deeper awareness of the body and breath, since the targeted muscles need to gradually work towards the peak pose, making it an easy transition.

Yoga teachers can encourage students to regularly practice Sun Salutation (Surya Namaskar), and its variations to improve the body-breath coordination since these are structured vinyasa sequences.
Focusing on a transition flow from standing yoga poses to sitting yoga poses, the sequence includes a few peak poses. To make it a dynamic and challenging practice, in the sequence the transition happens from Virabhadrasana Archer Arms to Sky Archer Pose, and finally to Akarna Dhanurasana (Shooting Bow Pose).

Fallen Triangle Pose Variation is a combination of Side Plank Pose and Triangle Pose, and incorporates a slight twist to build core and upper body strength by balancing the body in a tripod-like shape. The main focus of including Patita Tarasana Variation in yoga flows is to develop body awareness including the fingers and wrists, and to build hip and leg flexibility (by keeping the shoulders aligned while opening the outer hips and hamstrings).

The Fallen Triangle Pose Variation is a creative arm balancing pose that also acts as a foundation for yoga sequences or poses challenging the biceps and triceps like the Sage Visvamitrasana. Also, the stretch with the twist in the pose, opens the chest and the shoulders, and creates a feeling of high energy, making it a gentle heart opener.

The primary aim of yoga is to restore the mind to simplicity and peace so as to free it from confusion and distress. Asanas cater to the needs of each individual according to his or her specific constitution and physical conditions. These poses involve vertical, horizontal, and cyclical movements of the spine that direct the blood supply to all areas in the body to enhance the energy levels. Apart from toning of the muscles, tissues, ligaments, joints and nerves, yoga also ensures the smooth functioning of various systems in the body. It is only through constant practice that one achieves the final goal in yoga - sthiram: the balance between the body and the mind. Through this stability, one can achieve all the physical and mental benefits of every pose. This Intermediate Iyengar Yoga Sequence has been developed to train the body to balance, and build stamina while being fully aware of the breath and movements in an intelligent way.

This sequence of 75 minutes has 34 asanas to help understand the different changes in the pranic body, and each posture is held for a minimum of one minute. Practitioners can take it longer, if comfortable. With longer holds in each posture, there will be a visible improvement in the strength of the muscles of the spine which leads to a better nervous system.

Position | Supine
Type | Twist, Stretch

Supta Matsyendrasana Ii Flow (Belly Twist Flow Yoga) is a dynamic supine flow. It is a variation of the base pose Supine Spinal Twist Pose II (Supta Matsyendrasana II). So when Supta Matsyendrasana II is practiced on both sides with dynamic movements for 5-6 rounds, it takes the form of a flow. It is all about working toward the main focus of the human body, and that is the digestive fire (Jatharagni). The Agni plays a crucial role in yoga, and every yoga pose or asana has either a direct or an indirect connection to the digestive fire. There are two ways to work with this Agni or metabolism, (a deep stretch to hold a particular yoga pose like in hatha yoga or bring dynamic movement between two or three yoga poses like in vinyasa flow).

Pregnant women and senior citizens need to avoid dynamic movements as this may cause injuries or complications. Postnatal women can practice this flow to relieve lower back stiffness. Yoga teachers can use this flow to cure ailments related to digestion like flatulence, constipation, and lack of appetite with this practice. Yoga teachers can use this flow to strengthen the core and also for physically challenged people with amputated arms or amputated legs or even blind people.

It benefits various muscles, including those in the Core (Abs), Gluteus, Knees, Pelvic.
