From tadasana, the mountain pose, fold forward into the forward bend. From your forward bend
step your right leg back behind you and again take a deep lunge pose, the back knee comes
down to the floor. Now once you come down just check out your hips and square your hips
so they are evenly in line with one another. Then you want to push down into the balls
of your toes so notice how my back toes are tucked under and my front foot is actively
rooting into the Earth. As I push into the feet you can bend your front leg deeper and
hook your right elbow outside your left knee, then place your left hand on top of your right
and as you press into the palms root through your legs so you are extending organic energy
through your legs and allow your front leg to bend a little bit deeper, then pressing
your palms again twist your heart toward the sky and allow yourself to feel the stability
in your legs put the freedom in your breath as you twist the spine and exhale to release
folding forward and inhale and step into utanasana to switch to the second side. Then when you
are done inhale and come back up to standing.
