Part 2/6:
Each Surya Namaskar consists of specific postures that flow one into another. The following is a breakdown of the main sequence:
Namaste Pose – Bringing the palms together in front of the heart, taking a moment to breathe and set intentions.
Backward Bend – Inhaling and extending the arms upwards before gently arching backward.
Forward Bend – Exhaling and folding forward at the hips, reaching towards the ground.
Right Leg Back – Stepping the right foot back lunge-style, preparing the body for the plank position.
Plank Position – Transitioning into a strong plank, ensuring that the body forms a straight line from head to heels.
Knees-Chest-Chin – Lowering down into this gentle version of Chaturanga, which helps to build upper body strength.
