HOW TO PERFORM

  1. Stand tall, bend one knee and take that ankle in your hand, drawing the heel toward the glute.
  2. Keep the knees together and tuck the pelvis under so the stretch stays on the front of the thigh.
  3. Hold something for balance if you need it.
  4. Hold and breathe, then switch sides.
