Video of the Week: Side Plank Pose (Vasithasana)

Side Plank pose is a fairly challenging arm balance pose, and this variation done with a chair at the wall makes learning it much more accessible to new practitioners and those with upper body weakness. The pose is a great one to build strength along the slides of your chest and belly, your core, and around your shoulders and arms. Use caution if you have wrist issues, as you bear much of your body weight on your supporting wrist.
