Learn why Vasisthasana (Side Plank) is Mari's favorite pose, and practice with her in this tutorial!
Mari loves Vasisthasana because, as she describes, there are so many ways to modify it — using it as a transition to move into other shapes, educating your side body and beginning to wake it up, and also the movement of your spine as you transition from one side of the body to the other is really potent in letting the practice be fluid, free and feel really good.
Mari offers variations from basic to more complicated, and how Mari likes to use it (as a transition pose).
