F 59 Unilateral Open Flex Inflection EN

From your reclining transition, bending the right knee so the sole of the foot comes in toward the inside of that left leg, actively pressing the ball of that left foot forward as that left leg lowers to the ground and the outside edge of that right foot lowers to the ground beside it.

Slowly reach one arm forward at a time again, initiating the movement from the shoulder girdle as you flex the upper spine.

Now the center of the chest, the chin, the nose should be all in line with the pubis.

As you start to flex the upper spine, you come forward.

You’re moving down to the center of both legs.

You’re thinking more like the pubis line, center chest, navel, head, sorry, nose and chin.

The arms just reach down to wherever they’re comfortable to the side of the body and with that spinal flexion as you come forward, again you’re trying to gauge just how far you can go forward and keeping the lower part of the back from feeling compressed.

Again you can do micro movement through the spine and also through the shoulders slightly as you move through the neck and relax and then as we go from spinal flexion to spinal extension continue to draw the shoulders down as we lift upright again, engaging where you need to maybe adjust to compensate for inflexibility in the hamstrings to lift the spine upright and straight so that you feel that the lower back is very free.

Now the shoulders draw down and again the neck moves slightly but the back of the neck is extending upwards and the crown of the head is moving up as well.

To release here now, flex the upper spine as you continue to draw the shoulders back.

Teter-totter back finding the balance where the legs just automatically lift up off the floor, then gently lowering the forearms down as you extend the right leg, finding your way back to a dynamic and active reclining transition.
