Adho Mukha Svanasana (Downward-Facing Dog)
Adho Mukha Svanasana, more commonly referred to as Downward-Facing Dog Pose, is a foundational yoga posture included in almost every yoga practice. The name comes from the Sanskrit words adho (“downward”), mukha (“face”), svana (“dog”), and asana (“pose”). It has been part of yoga practice for centuries and is firmly established in the Hatha yoga tradition.
