SURYA NAMASKARA

Salute to the Sun

PADAHASTASANA

Position 3 Padahastasana or 'band to foot pose'

In a continuous movement, bend forward from the hips. Bring the hands to the floor on either side of the feet and the head as close as possible to the kness. The legs should remain straight. The breath is exhaled while moving into this position. Try to keep the back straight, focusing your awareness at the pelvis, the pivoting point for the stretch of the back and leg muscles.
