≤15 min. Sun Salutes, or Surya Namaskar is a sequence that flows. Although there are many forms - some fast, others slow, but most have elements of the classic 12 postures. This practice gives you a basic understanding of the salute that you can customize. The poses include tadasana, urdhva hastasana, uttanasana, anjayneasana, adho mukha svanasana, palankasana, and bhujangasana.
