  2. The literal meaning of ‘Surya Namaskar‘ is salutation or Namaskar to the Sun. Surya Namaskar has both asanas and pranayama. It is a combination of asanas or mudras and breathing exercises. It is a complete yogic exercise, also known as Sarvanga Vyayam. The practice of ‘Surya Namaskar’ yoga for beginners is the best way to learn other yogic exercises. Surya Namaskar is a combination of 12 powerful yoga asanas, which are capable of delivering the benefits of a complete yoga exercise and are beneficial for health.

  3. Types of Surya Namaskar: In fact, Surya Namaskar has evolved with different types of yoga styles. It is one such yoga practice, whose postures are different in different styles and variations. Basically, three types of Surya Namaskar are practiced- Ashtanga Surya Namaskar: A total of eight parts of the body touch the ground while doing this yoga asana. That is why this asana is also called Ashtanga or the salutation done with eight limbs. This asana is a beginner-level yoga posture of Vinyasa style, which is considered one of the Yogasanas of Surya Namaskar.

  4. Hatha Surya Namaskar: Over time, many variations of Surya Namaskar have evolved, although Hatha Yoga is one of the more prevalent Surya Namaskar styles. It is primarily the science of the harmony of breath and movement. Iyengar Surya Namaskar: This can be a complete exercise similar to Hatha practice, but with subtle variations. Iyengar’s Surya Namaskar is a bit more intense in terms of energy expenditure. Since it is done at a faster pace than other Surya Namaskar types, this yoga may not be suitable for beginners.
