Prasarita padottanasana B is the second of four positions of this wide-legged forward fold, which involve four different expressions of the arms, although the base of the pose and the posture of the spine remain the same throughout the expressions of the asana.
In Sanskrit, prasarita means “expanded,” “stretched out” or “spread.” For padottanasana, pada means “feet,” uttana means “intense stretch” and asana means “posture” or “seat.”
