Horizontal Arm Combinations (both arms)

See here for a note on Arm Position Terminology

Position 1,1 both arms in position 1.












Position 1,2, notice that my right arm is in position 1 and my left arm is in position 2.

However, if you mirror this image then your left arm will be in position 1 and your right arm will be in position 2. Then the coordinates (the 1,2) will be correct.









Position 1,3, my right arm is in position 1 and my left arm is in position 3












Position 1,4, my right arm is in position 1 and my left arm is in position 4. (I should also be smiling instead of grimacing:)

Now that's all of the positions with my right arm in position 1. Now I'll show you pictures of me with my right arm in position 2 while my left arm moves through positions 1 through to 4.












Position 2,1

About the dance of shiva and me

When I first read about Andrey Lappa's "Dance of Shiva" I was intrigued by the notion of spiral movements of the arms used to generate the flow of energy and bestow the practitioner with special powers.

I have yet to develop special powers but the Dance of Shiva has helped me to become smarter, improve my mind-body coordination and help me see connections. Perhaps those in and of themselves are "special powers," special enough for me to want to share this art.
