108 sun salutations
In this workshop we will practice 108 times the sun salutation sequence. Surya Namaskar, known as Sun Salutation, is a sequence of 12 Asanas (body postures) associated with movement, rhythm and breathing and is a holistic body, mind and soul practice. The practice of 108 Sun Salutations is an ancient tradition. They were done in a ritual way during the changing seasons in every equinox and solstice. The purpose was to prepare the body by detoxifying and purifying it to welcome the new age and thank the sun for giving life. The number 108 is an important symbolic number, which you can observe in traditions and customs. The ritual of the 108 Sun Salutations symbolic what we leave behind us and at the same time we will open up us to everything new that is waiting for. A dynamic sequence that makes all internal organs, spine and joints supple and makes the energy in the body flow.
