Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutation) A, C, and B

This video breaks down Surya Namaskar A, C, and B. Surya Namaskar (or sun salutation) is a good way to warm up the body, stretch and lengthen the muscles, tone, and even break a sweat! These are often introduced, either just sun salutation A or perhaps B and C, in a vinyasa flow class. I made this video to help beginners break it down in the comfort of their own home. Going to a class at a studio or elsewhere and feeling confused when the rest of the class is going through this isn't very comforting, so use this to help you get familiar!
These can be done as slowly as you want, or linking one breath to each movement. Be mindful and intentional of your movements. Surya Namaskar C varies often, sometimes omitting the Plank to low plank to upward facing dog flow. I chose this one to break down, but feel free to look for other variations of Surya Namaskar C.
Introduce these sequences to your home practice. You can even do several rounds of these to make up your practice for the day.
Enjoy and happy practicing yogis Xx

[@jayden8891]

Thank you so Much for this very succinct, easy to follow demonstration of all 3 namaskaras… best video I have found that illustrates each one & the differences…I practice each one, but I get C, A & B mixed up, & am in YTT class so it is especially important to learn these 😅😅

[@MISSJONASFOREVER2]

Amazing! can you please do more yoga videos?

[@taylorjoy5605]

Loved your voice and you taught me how to go from my plank into upwood dog by contracting my tailbone which made it easier because I engaged my core muscles and not just my arms. I just wished you made it longer (two rounds of surya Namaskar C. Namaste, Joy

[@MichelleWeinhofen]

Taylor Joy thank you, glad you enjoyed it. It was simply a how to video... not meant to be an actual practice so that’s why it’s not longer.
