Movement instructions

1
Start off with your feet hip-distance apart.
2
Bend your knees slightly to keep them soft and springy.
3
You may want to move your pelvis forward and backward and back few times before holding the tailbone forward in this stretch.

Technique guidance

Breathe slowly and evenly. Exhale as you ease into a comfortable range, and never use the breath to force a deeper position.

Use only a comfortable range; a stretch may feel like tension but should not feel sharp or joint-specific.
Come out of the position slowly and use support when balance is limited.

General guidance matched from movement type and equipment; it is not individualized coaching or medical advice.
