I was doing some Surya Namaskar prior to taking this course. This course helped in explaining the posture and technique of major individual asanas. I feel that Surya Namaskar has become better where I am able to do it more comfortably without strain and also feel the respective body parts being worked out. I recommend this as a very good starting point for understanding important asanas.
