Learn the Sun Salutation

Take apart Surya Namaskar pose by pose until the whole sequence flows without thinking.

The sun salutation is the backbone of most flow classes, and most people learn it by copying rather than understanding. This course slows it right down. We work through every shape and every transition, cover the two common versions, and finish with variations for tight shoulders, sore wrists and low energy.
