Turning Tuesday 7:45 AM with Eric

The turning salutation is a vinyasa form that is inspired by the structure and sequence of surya namaskar—the sun salutation.

As with sun salutations, downward-facing dog serves as a pivot between other poses in the cycle.

Unlike the sun salutation, turning salutations include asanas that involve rotation and sidebending. Turning salutations encourage healthy movement in the body in all planes and directions.

The turning salutation supports strength, flexibility, endurance and coordination, and is highly adaptable to different needs, interests, and capacities.
