The Ashtanga Primary Series, also known as "Yoga Chikitsa" or "Yoga Therapy," is the foundational series in the Ashtanga Yoga system. It consists of a set sequence of postures designed to detoxify and align the body.The Primary Series typically includes standing poses, seated poses, and finishing poses, with each posture flowing into the next in a specific sequence. The practice is usually performed in a heated room, and the sequence is intended to be learned gradually, with more advanced postures introduced as the practitioner develops strength and flexibility.
