Geeta: Week Four

1. Samasthiti
2. Urdhva Baddhanguliyasana
3. Utthita Trikonasana
4. Virabhadrasana II
5. Utthita Parsvakonasana
6. Vimanasana
7. Virabhadrasana I (turning the trunk & bending leg)
8. Utkatasana
9. Parsvottanasana (hands down, head down)
10. Uttanasana
    
11. Ardha Halasana (swinging from floor to rest feet on wall)
12. Eka Pada Sarvangasana
13. Paschimottanasana
14. Setu Bandha Sarvangasana
15. Savasana

This week's sequence is very similar to week three. I believe two asanas are added and one eliminated. I like how Geeta introduces Eka Pada Sarvangasana instead of Salamba Sarvangasana; it's easier to get into the latter when adding one leg at a time upward.

I think if I was to teach yoga, I would teach a group of individual asanas separately (like Utthita Trikonasana, Virabhadrasana II and Utthita Parsvakonasana) and then demonstrate in a quicker sequence-like form. I'm starting to practice in this fashion and believe students would appreciate and benefit learning how asanas are grouped together.
