Ganda Bherundasana, often called Chin Stand, is an advanced inversion that can place dangerous pressure on the neck. Do not attempt the full posture from text; use direct qualified instruction and avoid loading the chin or cervical spine.
What is Chin Stand?
Ganda Bherundasana is an advanced inversion often described with the chin near or on the floor. This creates significant neck risk and should not be treated as a self-guided balance.
How should the pose be approached?
This page intentionally provides no entry instructions. Do not attempt the pose without in-person training from a qualified teacher experienced in inversions.
- Never kick into the posture alone.
- Do not use the chin or neck as a weight-bearing point.
- Stop for any neck pressure, pain, numbness, dizziness, or visual symptoms.
- Use safer forearm-supported preparation only under direct guidance.
What is a lower-demand alternative?
Choose a stable standing posture or a teacher-approved forearm-supported shape with the head clear of the floor.
Common question: Can I practice the pose against a wall?
A wall does not remove neck-loading risk or replace direct instruction.
