The name comes from the Sanskrit words नट nata meaning "dancer", राज raja meaning "king", āsana (आसन) meaning "pose".
Nataraja is one of the names given to the Hindu God Shiva in his form as the cosmic dancer.
The pose is depicted in 13th - 18th century Bharatnatyam dance statues of the Eastern Gopuram, Nataraja Temple, Chidambaram; some 20 different asanas are depicted, implying according to Ananda Bhavanani both an early origin for these poses and a cultural interchange between mediaeval hatha yoga and dance.
Practicing this asana gives strength to your chest, ankles, hips, and legs.
Improves balance and stability in the legs.
It gives your groin, abdominal organs, and thighs a good stretch.
Do not practice this asana if you have an injury in your knee or lower back.And any injury in the leg, avoid the Asana.
Anyone suffering from low blood pressure, arthritis, do under guidance.
