Crescent High Lunge Pose Yoga (High Lunge Pose), Yoga Sequences, Benefits, Variations, and Sanskrit Pronunciation

By A Mystery Man Writer

In Ashta Chandrasana or Crescent High Lunge Pose, Ashta means Eight and Chandra means Moon in Sanskrit. While the English term for this pose here is Crescent High Lunge Pose, this yoga pose is a standing balancing asana and is close to the Warrior family of poses: Warrior I Pose, Warrior II Pose, Warrior III Pose, and Reverse Warrior Pose. Ashta Chandrasana is also considered as a preparatory pose for Virabhadrasana I or Warrior Pose I. In the title Crescent High Lunge Pose, the word Crescent comes from how the body in this pose resembles the shape of the moon at the waxing or waning period. A high lunge is considered a dynamic pose whereas a low lunge is a beginner pose where the knee rests on the floor behind. To lunge here means throwing of the body towards the floor while not really touching the floor. Wide apart feet create a great stretch to the hamstrings and the hips.
