Five Six Prasara Primer Flows For Full Body Training At Any Level

The Prasara Primer includes six unique Prasara Yoga flows, each designed to tar­get a spe­cific aspect of ath­letic move­ment. By prac­tic­ing them together in the sequence out­lined, you’ll be build­ing your body sys­tem­at­i­cally to improve every facet of your abil­i­ties. You’ll also have a lot of fun dis­cov­er­ing new ways to move your body – the kind of fun you haven’t had since you were a kid.

Five Prasara Yoga Flows for Specific Movement Abilities

  • Cricket –The Cricket flow is ideal for devel­op­ing hip mobil­ity. In addi­tion to greater flex­i­bil­ity, you’ll notice improve­ments in all activ­i­ties that require squat­ting and bend­ing at the knees – every­thing from surfing to pick­ing up your kids.
  • Vine – Like a vine, you’ll root deeply into the ground to increase bal­ance and single-leg sta­bil­ity. Vine is per­fect for kick­ers in mar­tial arts or ball sports as well as run­ners or any­one who spends a lot of time on one leg.
  • Wind – The Wind flow will improve your abil­ity to breathe while twist­ing and turning your body. Useful for sports like surf­ing and snow­board­ing, but also ten­nis, base­ball, and golf. It’s vir­tu­ally impos­si­ble to per­form this flow with­out expe­ri­enc­ing some degree of flow in your breathing.
  • Ocean – Grap­plers will espe­cially appre­ci­ate the Ocean flow’s empha­sis on seam­less tran­si­tions on the ground. Ocean is also a lot of fun for those of us who enjoy rolling around on the floor.
  • See­Saw – See­Saw is all about the core – front and back and all around. This flow proves that yoga is any­thing but pas­sive, as con­sis­tent prac­tice will yield stronger arms and trunk through press­ing move­ments and bal­ance holds.

As of ver­sion 2.1, we’ve added a brand new flow sequence to the mix:

  • Root — Cre­ated espe­cially for begin­ners or peo­ple who are return­ing to train­ing after an injury or time off. Root lays the foun­da­tion for pro­duc­tive Prasara prac­tice with pos­tures any­one can do, build­ing the bal­ance and mobil­ity you’ll need to mas­ter the five orig­i­nal flows in the most direct and effi­cient way possible.

Each of the five orig­i­nal flows has three lev­els of dif­fi­culty and sophis­ti­ca­tion.

Begin with Root Flow to pre­pare your body and get used to how Prasara works (it’s a lit­tle dif­fer­ent from other yoga styles you’ve seen), then move on when you’re ready. As you cycle through the five movement-focused flows at each level, you’ll sys­tem­at­i­cally build your entire body – increasing strength, mobil­ity, and smooth, effort­less Flow.
