Yoga for Dancers

I'm all about incorporating yoga into a dance warm up. There are probably people out there who do not believe in it; some may argue that it isn't really yoga any more. However, I have seen an article about an Indian lady who has basically made a dance out of yoga asanas.

In my dance class today, we stretched the body first with uttanasana, parighasana, sun salutations, then into warrior II, parsvokonasana, and parsvatanasana. At the end of class, we finished with prasarita padottanasana, paschimottanasana, janu sirsana and upavista konasana.
