Let’s Pay Salutation To The Sun

Firstly, let’s start with the Surya Namaskar pose that is a salutation to the sun which will help your body stretch from head to toe. It is as similar to warm up you do before any dance or exercise workout.

• All you have to do is stand straight with legs joined together and also joining both the hands just like a praying position. Hold it for 3-5 seconds and take a deep breath as you inhale and exhale.
• Secondly stretch towards your backward side with your hands up that slowly goes back. Keep stretching towards your back, hold it for 3-5 seconds and you will feel a little pain which means you doing right.
• Now bend your upper portion body downwards with both hands touching the floor that is just beside your legs. Make sure that you keep your legs join straight and try not to bend your knees while you will feel the pain on the nerves of your legs that stretches. Again, you need to hold it for 3-5 seconds.
• Take your right leg behind while you slowly come little downwards and let the leg lie behind and keep your back spinal cord straight with 3-5 seconds count.
• Take the next left leg back to the plank position while your hands will be underneath your shoulder. This might be little difficult but I am sure you can maintain that position for 3-5 seconds.
• Slowly bring your knees, chest and forehand on the floor while your shoulder will be off the floor. As you inhale and exhale for 3-5 second counts.
• Next you will be letting your thighs and legs that is the entire lower body portion rest on the floor. While you will stretch your upper body portion slide upwards with heads up and hands on the floor to get the support. Do it with 3-5 seconds count.
• Tuck your toes on the floor with your hips raised up. Try not to bend your knees, a little bend is fine.
• Now take your right leg forward near your shoulders just as shown in the image. You can feel the stretch when you point out your left leg toe.
