Title
Description
Begin in Mountain pose with feet together. Inhale and raise your arms overhead. Transfer the weight of your body onto your left leg and then step your right foot straight behind you so the toes are barely touching the floor. Remain balanced for a couple of breaths. Stay mindful of keeping your hips squared and level. Inhale and length the spine. Exhale as you slowly begin to fold forward from your left hip, lifting your right leg off the ground and lowering your torso until both are parallel to the ground. With each breath in, continue to expand and lengthen through the arms, torso, and the extended back leg. On each exhalation, square the hip of the lifted leg toward the floor. Gaze straight ahead. Pull your shoulders down and away from your ears. Repeat on other side.
