High Crescent Lunge

How do you want to grow?

I’ve seen 2 Sanskrit terms used on Yogapedia for this pose. Ashta chandrasana and Utthita Ashwa Sanchalanasana. Can you comment on which one is correct and thank you!

Hi John,

I learned Crescent lung as either Ashta Chandrasana or Anjaneyasana, which can be done with the knee on or off the floor. I think that utthita ashwa sanchalanasana is usually done with your hands on the ground and your gaze up, but could then become a crescent lunge.

Perfect, thanks Figi!
