Start with the inner edges of the feet together. Have the toes spread wide and the arches lifted. Energize the legs by lifting the kneecaps. Straighten your arms over your head. The palms face each other. Without bending forward at all, bend the knees as much as you can. Keep the hips knees and feet all in alignment by making sure both feet are together and both knees are together. Plunge the hips down as you lift the chest up. Keep your tail tucked under. Hold as long as you can, then inhale to come up. Strengthens ankles and leg muscles, elevates and massages diaphragm and heart, removes stiffness in the shoulders and expands the chest. |
