Half Moon

From Triangle pose, step your arm a little away from your body and bring your back leg up. Feel a little curve in your body from your head to your foot just like a curve in a half-moon.

Sun Salutation

Mountain, Wave hi to the sky, come down to the ground. Step back to dog come into an upward dog (aaaarooooo). Come back to downward dog step your feet forward, extend up, and stand tall like a mountain.

Four limbed pose

From Tabletop straighten your arms and legs to form a plank. Keeping your elbows as close to your body as possible, bend your elbows and knees till your chest almost touches the floor. Now all four of your limbs are bending.

Tree

From mountain pose, lift your right foot to the inside of your left thigh. Lift both arms straight to the sky like branches of a tree.

Chair

Stand in Mountain pose. Lift your arms to the sky like you are holding onto the chains of a swing. Now keeping the lift of the arms sit back onto the swing- it's lower than you think!

Twisted Triangle

Snake

Lay on your belly with the palms of your hand on the floor next to your side. Keep the elbows close to the body. Inhale and lift your trunk and chest like a snake.

Frog

Reclined (sleeping) hero

From tabletop bring your knees together and take your feet wide. Sit between your feet. Be like a noble hero who is sitting tall willing to sacrifice for the moral cause. Now gently and slowly lay on your back or a pillow and raise your arms over your head.

Child's pose

From tabletop, sit on your heels and take your knees apart. Walk your hands forward till your chest is near the floor and you resemble a child in a mother’s womb.

Butterfly
