High Plank - Santolasana
This posture is a transitional posture found between Adho Mukha Svanasana (downward facing dog) and Ashtanga Pranam (8 point salutation) or Chaturanga Dandasana (the four limbed staff).
This posture will strengthen the upper body and core. It features throughout Vinyasa style classes and in many Strong or Core based classes.
This posture is very similar to a press-up position.
