Triangle Pose
May 10th, 2007What to say:
- Jump your feet out nice and wide
- Stretch your arms out towards the walls
- Now take a big deep breath in and turn you right foot out to the wall
- Breath out and tip all the way over to the right put your right hand on your leg just below your knee
- Reach your left arm up towards the ceiling
- How high can you lift your left arm with out moving your right arm?
