Dhanurasana (Sanskrit: धनुरासन, romanized: Dhanurāsana, lit. 'Bow pose') is a back bending asana in hatha yoga and modern yoga as exercise . Etymology and origins
Akarna Dhanurasana (Sanskrit: आकर्ण धनुरासन; IAST: Ākarṇa Dhanurāsana), also called the Archer pose, [1] Bow and Arrow pose, [2] or Shooting Bow pose [1] is an asana in hatha yoga and modern yoga as exercise. The posture resembles an archer about to release an arrow.
A single asana is listed for each main pose, whether or not there are variations. Thus for Sirsasana (Yoga headstand), only one pose is illustrated, although the pose can be varied by moving the legs apart sideways or front-and-back, by lowering one leg to the floor, by folding the legs into lotus posture, by turning the hips to one side, by placing the hands differently on the ground, and so on.
