From Kareena Kapoor, Katrina Kaif to Alia Bhatt, everyone is a Surya Namaskar fan! And we’re sure you would be one too if you give it a shot! That’s because this yoga flow consists of eight basic yoga poses that work on your body from head to toe.
Urdhva Hastasana aka Upward Salute: From standing, you move to give your body a gentle little stretch by bending backwards with an upward salute. This one opens up your upper body,especially your chest and shoulders. It is also considered great for your belly and side areas plus it aids in better mental well-being too.

Uttanasana aka Standing Forward Bend: Love it or hate it but if you are unable to do it, it is a clear sign that you have a stiff body. It is not necessary that in the first go youwill be able to touch your feet but if you practice it daily then a day will come when you will be able to rock it. Standing forward bend is great for your back muscles, especially the lower back. It releases tension from that area and makes it more flexi. Image courtesy: Shutterstock
Low Lunge aka Anjaneyasana: If you want to tone your legs and get your bums to be back in shape, this yoga pose won’t disappoint you. A low lunge is a full leg stretch that will ensure that every muscle in your lower body is stretched to the T so that the area can be strengthened and you get a toned and more agile body.
