Bow Pose is an intermediate backbend that tones and strengthens the entire back of the body. An entire class can be sequenced around this one Pose!
Named after an archer's bow, the Sanskrit term for Bow Pose — "Dhanurasana" (DAHN-yoor-AHS-uh-nuh) — comes from two words:
* "Dhanu" — meaning "bow"
* "Asana" — meaning "pose"
