PARIVRTTA SKANDASANA HATHA
Parivrtta Skandasana is a hip-opening and open-twisting posture. It is translated as the twisting side lunge pose. It's a bit like the big sister of Parighasana.
It mixes many elements at the same time; it stretches the rear thigh of the straight leg, works the femoral head of the bent leg, creates a harmonious twist along the entire length of the spine and opens the shoulders. It stretches the side of the upper abdomen and keeps the abdominal muscles and organs in good condition, the skin of the belly relaxes and remains healthy and it softens stiff backs.
It is a posture that is often found in the practice of vinyasa yoga.
