How to do Dancer Pose | Natarajasana Tutorial with Briohny Smyth
Video taken from the channel: Alo Moves Online Yoga Videos
King Dancer Pose (Natarajasana) requires strong balance, intense backbending, and open shoulders, all of which take time to cultivate. In a backbend sequence, King Dancer Pose would come near the end, and you may follow it with Standing Half Forward Bend (Ardha Uttanasana) as a counter pose.Instructions.
Begin standing in Mountain Pose ( Tadasana ) with your feet together and your arms at your sides. Shift your weight onto your left foot. Bend your right knee and bring your right heel toward your right buttock.
Reach your right hand down and clasp your right foot’s inner ankle.Steps to do a perfect King Dancer Pose Begin this pose by standing in Tadasana or Mountain Pose with your arms at your sides and feet together. While shifting your body weight onto your left foot, bend your right knee and bring your right heel toward your right hip. Bring your right hand down and clasp with your right foot’s inner ankle.Naturajasana falls into the backbending category in which the arms are reaching overhead and holding the foot/feet.
Notable members of this family include the One-Legged King of Pigeon postures (Eka Pada Rajakapotasana postures), the ridiculously difficult arm balance named Kapinjalasana, and Hand-to-Foot Boat Pose (Padangusthasana Dhanurasana).King Dancer is a doozy, but you can do it! This pose requires balance, flexibility, and strength all at once; most importantly, it requires patience, time, and breath. When you are in this pose, your chest opens, your breath grows deeper, and you feel strong and stable with your foot rooting into the ground—it’s exhilarating!
King Dancer with Strap Use the very same actions you did in pigeon to catch your back foot in natarajasana: Start in the natarajasana prep described earlier, bending your left knee and catching hold of the inside of your left foot with your left hand.Once you have the foot with both hands, release the strap to come into full pose. Do your best to keep the hips squaring and drawing the right knee to the midline (it loves to splay out to the side… not so good for your sacrum). Draw the front hip bones up and soften your buns. Careful on the exit as it’s very easy to sling-shot out.
Step 1 Stand in Tadasana(Mountain Pose). Inhale, shift your weight onto your right foot, and lift your left heel toward your left buttock as you bend the knee. Press the head of your right thigh bone back, deep into the hip joint, and pull the knee cap up to keep the standing leg straight and strong.
Notice the opening of your left shoulder. Ground the RIGHT foot. Bend the LEFT knee, foot traveling toward your glutes. With your thumb up (to prevent torquing shoulder) reach behind and capture the inside of LEFT foot wit.
To deepen the pose, you could catch the inner part of your left foot with your right hand swept behind your back. Grab the outer edge of your left foot with your right hand. This is a more challenging stance and will increase your ability to balance better.Make sure your toes are pointing straight forward in parallel and really spread through your feet. Anchor the big toe into the groundthis part is very important.
Often, when the big toe goeseverything else does, too! And then you end up falling over out of your beautiful Dancer’s Pose. And no dancer ever likes to fall Why is this so important?

Your teaching is beyond, no words for it, you are a blessing for every student
I love your tutorials, but I would love for them to include modifications. Most of these are the advanced version, beginners or even those that have been practicing for a while wouuld find this difficult, depending on their own anatomy. But thank you….
Why…. WHY it looks soooo easy when you rotate you hand, but when I tried, it is hard as hell ��
You loookk sooo gorgeous ��
Would love to learn your ways for purnadhanuraasan please ��
Its much less complicated when I do it on ice, but thanks for showing me how to do it on the ground ☺️
Omg. I’ve been trying to get natarajasana for a while. I’m going to try this. Thanks!
Thank you, Shana! You are a really intricate and helpful instructor.:)
I hope you know that you are an awesome teacher. Looked at so many vids on this pose but only your vid was of grt help. Keep up the good work. Let know if you come to india, would love to be your student. ☮️ ��
You’ve explained these poses very well, for us to be able to do it in every steps!! Thank you so much!! I’ll want to master this 1 pose for my upcoming trip in 2 weeks time!!
yoga is great and i love the people who are passionate about it it has so much more soul than any other discipline ie bodybuilding which ive left behind for yoga and parkour and functional training..yoga roxx! thats a nice backyard, i guess u do well for a yoga instructor eh? bravo
Its nice to see her actually get winded for once.. lol. Much love Kino!
Hello AJ,
I have a problem to keep the balance. Do you block your knee or it is not necessarily necessary?
You’re the best teacher. I’ve been following you for a while. Someday, I’ll go and take a class with you!
Shana! smile!
SO I’ve been using a resistance loop band for this pose https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018W6KER2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The band makes it so much easier to get into the pose AND once I’m in the pose the band helps me to work on the asana form. smile.
AS always much thanks from Capitola smile.
Can you please tell me few asanas, kriyas and pranayam known to be helpful in chronic kidney disease?
I have not achieve deep back bend poses till now. can I try this?
waouh! The talking while backbending and keeping stable on one leg is pretty awesome! Inspiring as always Kino:)
First time I’ve ever subscribed to a channel in response to an ad in my inbox. Thanks.
Fantastic video wonderful Shana!! Thank you! I”ll add this pose to my practice:)! And thank you for the wonderful sense of humor!!!
Thank you Marsha, Marsha, Marsha. You made my sunshine day:)
I have not looked up to the end, and not tried, but I can already see that it’s cool! the combination of the belt and the wall should give the result!
Well detailed and easy to follow. Thank you for a great tutorial.
She’s so unbelievably pretty.
But these exercises are much appreciated. Need more flexibility for mixed martial arts.
That’s a great explanation, great to see someone else has similar approach that me. Great! Well done! ��������
Thank you so much for this!! I was looking for details in this pose especially why do some people hold the inside ankle and others the outside. Love the explanations! Much love!
How do we know when our backbend is deep enough? I’m still beginning, but there are days when my muscles just get really into it and I can sort of breathe my postures to stretch longer.
wow! u teaches me a lot
thank u
i want u to teach me naukasana
Thank You Bianca.. finally I can do dance pose after watch this video and practice it..
Thank you for being there for us any time of the day. Love it!
@Shana Meyerson How about a Sarvangasana and Halasana tutorial?
And finally I can touch my feet right on the nose with tbis. So happy yaaayy.
Got Kino’s yoga videos going tonight. I was just now very surprised at how easy this actually was. I had been practicing my extensions on my flexibility rope (it goes on a door). In cheerleading the back pose is called a scorpion, and when the leg is straight along side the back, it is called a needle. I cannot get the back pose with both hands yet, but I was surprised. I do have a ballet barre, and i did not even need to hold on to it for this. I impressed myself tonight, after not being able to pull off fan kicks using a yoga hula hoop yesterday on my rollerskates.
India is a country where cheap actors like sharukh Khan smokes and post a video means it crosses Billions of views but videos of a very ancient powerful arts of this kind is not even getting 100 likes.
Feel pity of our nation and people’s.
Hi kino I m Ur fan u teaching very well.but when I m try ING Natrajan San I can’t trunk my hand in upwards motion
loved this video. especially that you mentioned details like bending the knee slightly for very mobile people. Most tutorials dont bother. Thank you!
“Done your Ross”??? Who was writing the text, good god. She said “Dhanurasana” not done your ross. Again, good god.
Can this be learned if you totally cannot even remotely do it?! ��
i am so close to being able to do this. Lose my balance right after switching my shoulder to the front again. I know.. practice.:) Thanks for the video. Watching is helping me figure this out.
¡Deja que se caiga tu Brassiere “accidentalmente”,para que todos los mirones de esta tu pagina,contemplemos el espectáculo de tus pequeños pero hermosos senos,que aprisionados se dejan libres!
This is a tutorial video on how to do Dancer’s Yoga Pose. We go through proper alignment plus poses and stretches to do to prepare your body for this intermediate standing balance pose. This is a variation on Natarajasana (King Dancer or Lord of the Dance Pose) and Standing Bow Pulling Pose (from the Bikram Yoga series).
60-Minute Vinyasa Flow Yoga Class featuring Dancer Pose will be posted October 8, 2018.
I might even shoot it into my own foot.. which would suck! Thanks for the great video. Very informative with a wonderful sense of humor added in:)
You make this looks effortless, I am impressed how can you talk when you’re doing this tough stretch.
¡Con estos ejercicios de Yoga,kino,nos muestras las posibilidades que tiene el cuerpo humano y sobre todo el de las mujeres para hacer el amor en otras posiciones distintas de las tradicionales!
Shana, in nearly a decade of browsing YouTube anonymously, this is my first ever comment! You have compelled me:) I love your videos, how you break down the poses, how you are so free from vanity (so rare and precious) and yoga mumbo-jumbo. Your practice is like a breath of fresh air. I love you sister!!
How do you turn your shoulder without it hurting? I feel like my shoulder blade is going to pop out it hurts so much! I can’t do it on the right or left. I can do full L&R splits and my back is flexible. I don’t know what I am doing wrong.
you are made of elastic Kino!! I would love to see you train a beginner in this Asana to get a better idea of gradual progression!:)
Difficult to hear you. Pease a little move volume…thanks so much.
Very useful video, nice teaching thank you, how can I improve my hand ballance
Why can’t i kick back, and what can i do to improve the flexibility and strength i need for that?
This is a great explanation! Totally changed my understanding of how to enter King Dancer! Thank you so much!
Yes…Shana…please put up a Sarvangasana tutorial with preparatory poses! Thanks.
I would like to do this pose but I have really problem to catch the leg because of my shoulders. Do you have some good exercises to stretch the shoulders on this way. Thanx =)
is it normal that one of my legs/arm can’t do this as well as the other? and how can i improve this?
Too fast. I can’t understand what she did when switching grips.
Will practice repeatedly as I have no balance at all. Congratulations!! Second baby?
Wow! I almost bust my face on the wall 3 times in a row. Lol! I need more practice
this video taught me how to do it, and after like 10 minutes, I can do it and hold my balance! thank you
Woahhh! This was perfect for me, first time I could actually get into the pose and HOLD it a few breaths. I always felt my legs were too heavy for me to hold somehow. Thank you, thank you Kino. xx
THANK YOU! I truly felt that I could do this pose but I could never hold the full expression. The thumb up tip and horizon gaze “flipped the switch” in my yoga brain and I got it! I’m so thrilled! You are terrific!
You are a good lady shana.i like your innocence. And-of course I enjoy your videos.
������
If you are flexible and capable enough of doing the first part is it likely you should be capable of doing the second part? That is if you are struggling with the higher part is it down to flexibility issues or is it more likely you are just doing it wrong?
I discovered this site, and get the yoga mat bag
->> https://t.co/Fi70Xncymh
The bag is free, we just have to add delivery
See Dhanurasana video. Do the one where the thighs are on the floor. It will help you figure out the kick part without having to balance in a standing position. I hope this helps.
Great video, thanks Shana. I love the tip about leaning into the wall, because I have trouble grabbing my foot with the opposite hand this should help open up the shoulders. BTW, some days I wear sock to help with the grip on the foot… I know it’s cheating but it works at least until I’m flexible and strong enough to flex my toes.
if you grab just above your ankle it releases the stress on your foot! just a heads up.
