The Ashtanga Half Primary Series is a guided practice following a set sequence of foundational postures from the Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series. It incorporates the Tristhana method — breath, bandha (energetic locks), and drishti (gaze) — to draw the senses inward and cultivate awareness and presence throughout the practice. The sequence combines standing postures, selected seated postures, and the closing sequence, bringing breath and movement together in a moving meditation.
