WARM UP POSES

  1. Take your right foot forward and hold your left foot up towards back(don’t need to be 90'. Initially you can keep up for 1' from the ground. When you get more balance, you can try to stretch out more)
  2. Stand straight and lock your knees. Look back by dropping your head back and bending your spinal cord back.
  3. Since the spinal cord was bent back in the previous poses, its better to do a forward bent to make it more flexible . Bend Forward by spreading your hands. Lock your knees and loosen your hands down to touch the floor. Remain in this pose for few seconds. Keeping your brain down will relax your mind and soothing. 
  4. Hold a belt on both hands and spread your hands up. Make a letter “n” by moving your hands from front to back up with the belt. You would feel the stretch when your hands start to move down. For more stretch, bring your hands closer.
  5. Loop your strap in right ankle and lift your right leg up on your back. Hold it on this pose for 30seconds – 1 min
  6. Stand straight and cross hands back. Touch your right elbow with left and left with right hand.
  7. Hold hands in prayer position but on your back.
