Sun Salutation Workshop

Sun Salutation (Surya Namaskar) is the heart of a vinyasa practice. We often begin our asana practice with Sun Salutations. Is there a reason behind it? And, do you really know how to practice Sun Salutation safely? In this Back 2 Basics series, we will explore the meaning of Surya Namaskar and develop a functional understanding of every asana involved in this flowing sequence. You will be taught the correct alignment for each asana found in Surya Namaskar A & B and the Jivamukti Surya Namaskar. You will learn to use your bandha, gaze (drishti) and flow together with your breath. All levels welcome.

4. Accessing the asanas safely without overtaxing the wrists, shoulders, elbows, lower back and neck.
