Hasta Bandha (The Hand Lock)

Kirtan Smith

Hasta Bandha (literally “hand lock” in Sanskrit) is a drawing up through the center of the palm with the fingers tented on the ground. Becoming familiar with this bandha is a wonderful way to enhance your practice, and it has changed the way I do many, many poses. Hasta bandha draws energy up the arms and toward the heart, it allows for more rotation in the shoulder joints and length in the arms, and it can relieve some of the constant pressure that yoga puts on our wrists. Explore the many aspects of hasta bandha in this challenging, creative class.
