Re:What is your favorite pose? - 2007/09/07 21:12 I have never really though about this until now but I suppose my favourite pose would have to be the Chakra-asana.

"Translation: Chakra, from the root cak ("to move") means wheel and therefore this is the Wheel Posture.
The cakra-asana is also known as the urdhva-dhanurasana. Urdhva means raised, elevated or upright and dhanur means bow. Both "wheel posture" and "raised bow posture" describe the appearance of this asana."

Source http://www.santosha.com/asanas/chakra.html

Anyways as you can tell from the description and picture from the source it is a good way to stretch your back muscles which is why I enjoy it so much.
