SUN SALUTATIONS

FINALLY CLICKING

Sun salutations are supposed to feel as natural as brushing your teeth. For most people, they don't.

Maybe you’ve been there: Sun salutations in the beginning of the class, feel rushed through, and you struggle to straighten your legs, you struggle to keep your torso parralel to the mat when coming down through a chaturanga (yogic push up), or you sink in your shoulders in upward facing dog. You look at others, you compare yourself, negative self chatter comes up.

Because of the repetitiveness of this asana sequence, it is important we learn the foundation right.

  • So Sun salutations feel good in your body - also after months and years of repetition

  • So you can feel at ease and finally relax into your body and breath

  • So you can actually focus on your breath, without disturbing chatter in your head

From insecurity to a moving meditation right at the beginning of class.

  • Module 1: Chest & Abs Module

    Module 1: Chest & Abs Module

    This training module works on building up upper arm and shoulder strength that will up-level your chaturangas and give you that alignment of a perfect line.

    We will be doing:

    • Push-ups on knees

    • Push-ups on feet

    • Core work

  • Module 2: Hamstring Opening

    Module 2: Hamstring Opening

    This module is for you to dive into if you really would like to open up those hamstrings - high heels or intense training, cycling or sitting shorten this area and it is usually the number one struggle as we get into yoga.

    We will:

    • Warm up the hamstrings

    • Lengthen the hamstrings from multiple angles

    Repeat the module as often as needed to see improvements and try to integrate parts of those exercises into your daily routine.

  • Module 3: Chest & Shoulders

    Module 3: Chest & Shoulders

    In this module we open up chest and shoulders - an area that might be tight and inhibits you from opening into the full expression of both Cobra pose and Upward facing dog.

    We will be:

    • Opening the chest

    • Opening the shoulders

    Repeat this module as often as you need to see improvements and incorporate these movements into your daily routines and workouts.
