Sitting with the hands lightly cupped onto the knees, tilt back a little bit to find that tipping spot, the balance, allow for the feet to lightly lift off the floor.

Make sure initially here to make sure that you’re really hanging off the knees to allow for the abdominal wall to be very soft to start.

Draw the shoulders down towards the hips here and now release the right hand to press the palm forward again, engaging that movement from the shoulder, doing the same with the left hand as you press forward engaging the movement from the shoulder.

This is a very light flexion of the upper spine and the scapula move away from the spine.

Next step here is that we want to straighten the legs.

If it’s not possible to straighten the legs completely it’s okay to keep the knees slightly bent or even a little bit more.

The next step here we’re going to do is to reach the arms out to the side now palms facing forward and allow for yourself to lift the chest here to make the spine a little bit straighter.

Now this Now this is really tough.

As we start to lower, which is what we’re trying to do here, we’re trying to maintain the integrity of the spine being straight.

If you don’t have that much strength, then it’s just gonna be millimeters that the legs are lowering and that the upper torso is lowering.

But essentially you don’t wanna break that arm line.

The arms don’t wanna come up, the arms wanna stay out to the side.

Now to release, lift the legs and the upper torso up together first, extend the arms forward again, Cup onto the knees and relax.
