| Foundations of
Posture: |
- Begin in Table posture (hands
directly below the shoulders and knees hip width apart and
directly below your hips - feet are straight behind the knees).
- Bring your right leg forward
between your hands so the ankle and knee are in one line and the
shin bone is straight up and down. Use your right arm to brace the
shin inward to the midline of the body.
- Extend the back
leg, curl the back toes under and lift
the knee away from the ground.
- Press back into the left heel as
you lift the left thigh muscle up in to the sky and tailbone root
down and forward. i.e.: Back leg is charged and lifting
while the front leg is soft and surrendering - tailbone tucks into
space between.
- Draw your shoulder blades together
on your back and allow your heart to lift in celebration.
- To release: Bend the back
knee and come back to table pose and repeat on other side.
