Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Step1
Lie down on your mat, back flat. Your arms should be at your sides, palms down to the floor.
Step2
Lift your legs up in the air creating a 90-degree angle between your legs and the floor. Keep your legs and feet together, toes pointed.
Step3
Inhale, then on the exhale, carefully lift and roll your buttocks, then your back off the floor, extending your legs over your head to try and touch your toes to the floor. Keep all of your weight on your shoulders, not your neck or head. Keep your arms and hands where they started, flush with the floor, palms down.
Step4
When your toes have reached as far to the floor as they can, spread your legs apart as far as they will go. Flex your feet, then slowly roll back down onto the mat – first your upper back, then your lower back, then your buttocks.
Step5
Once your buttocks is back on the floor, bring your legs and feet back together, toes pointed.
Step6
Lower your legs to a 45-degree angle with the floor. Hold it for a moment, then bring them back up to a 90-degree angle.
Step7
Repeat Steps 3 to 6 three to five times.
