This is a full Sun Salutation on both sides (Surya Namaskar) that you can follow along

I LOVE Sun Salutations.......You will find many sun salvation variations offered in Yoga & Pilates classes. I use several different variations, don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have about variations or technique. 

"Sun salutations are exhilarating & enjoyable. They develop strength, flexibility, grace, speed, alertness, stamina and coordination. They stimulate the abdominal organs, wake up the spine, build heat for the practice and unleash held energy. Arms & wrists are strengthened, back strengthened & chest opened. Movements coordinated with breath increase awareness of breath and flow. Excellent whole body exercise." ~Erich Schiffman~Yoga -The spirit & practice of moving into stillness. 

"Heat is generated in the body, raising the core temperature and causing the blood vessels on the body's surface to dilate. The increased heat raises blood flow to the muscles and makes the tendons and ligaments more pliable. Lengthens muscles & improves range of motion. The sun salutations alternately contract & relax groups of muscles. This creates a "pumping" action in the veins and improves return of blood to the heart."~Ray Long~The Key poses of Yoga.
