Sun Salutation
Morning yoga flow
Sun Salutation is a sequence of yoga poses performed in a flowing series, traditionally done at sunrise as a greeting to the day.
The poses move through standing, bending, and plank positions in a set order, then reverse back to standing.
Practitioners use it as a warm-up or complete workout: I do five Sun Salutations every morning.
Also called by its Sanskrit name, Surya Namaskar.
