When the ugra-asana is properly performed, all the vertabrae of the spine and each muscle in the back is stretched. This type of stretching is highly beneficial. Try it regularly for a week and you will, without doubt, notice the benefits.
Forward-bend Pose (oo-grah-sa-na) Ugra-asana - The Sanskrit word ugra means powerful, mighty, strong or noble. We usually keep this posture untranslated but it can be called the noble or powerful posture.
It is recommended that, before attempting the Sirsha-asana beginners first mastered some of the more basic postures like Sarvanga-asana, Dhanura-asana, Ugra-asana, etc.
