The Primary Series is the gateway to the Ashtanga Yoga system. Often referred to as Yoga Chikitsa, or Yoga Therapy, the Primary Series restores health to the physical body through opening the spine and hips and through detoxifying the internal organs using deep forward bends and twists. The practice of the Primary Series includes vinyasa (linking the postures), dristi (focus), pranayama (breathing) and the three bandhas (locks).
