Sun Salutations are yogic asanas {poses} that help awaken the body. Traditionally used as a way to salute the sun {hence the name, sun salutation} they were practiced early in the morning as a ritual to awakening.
I love to use a quick Sun Salutation to work and loosen my entire body before a busy day.
In this video you will learn the two variations of Sun Salutation A, one with a knees-chest-chin variation of chatturanga and another with the more active high to low push-up variation.
Sun Salutation A is a nice quick way to warm your body and release muscles that may seem stiff after a good night rest.
Often practiced in succession, I generally group 5 to 10 rounds of Sun A together as a practice.
When I am really good, I do this before I start my day as a way to revitalize and energize my entire body. {wink}
Like all yoga, you may utilize this practically anywhere. Get creative and have fun with it.
