Utkatasana (fierce pose/chair pose) उत्कटासन

Utkaṭa (उत्कट) means ”wild, frightening, above the usual, intense, gigantic, furious, or heavy", and āsana (आसन) means "posture”.

Utkatasana benefits:
-Strengthens the lower body
-Activates the core
-Opens shoulders and chest
-Creates mental focus

Utkatasana is a foundational yet transformational posture, all students can benefit from practicing this āsana. At SBYC we offer a variety of ways to gain the benefits from using props like chairs and ropes to the support of the wall to great greater depth and stability.

Our Yoga for healthy aging program is designed to support physical function in older adults by improving balance, gait, strength, and mobility as well as supporting attention, memory, executive function, and emotional regulation.

Yoga Kurunta, or wall ropes can help deepen your practice.

Have you ever wondered what the ropes on the wall in SBYC are used for in your Yoga practice?

Developed by B.K.S. Iyengar ‘Yoga Kurunta’ means ‘puppet’ in Sanskrit, the use of wall ropes allows practitioners to enhance support and create accessibility in various postures. Our dedicated and certified Iyengar teachers are well trained in sharing the benefits, making it an accessible practice for all students of Yoga.

Yoga is a life long practice that helps you continue to do all the things you love as you age.
