Lesson Outline
- Lying face down, knees bent, knees and ankles “tied” together. Tilt legs to the L (face looking R).
- Then go down slowly and return quickly. When do you get taller, where?
- Something confusing but perhaps just with your head on the L ear, you lift the head from the ground. Or compare how it lifts on each side, or roll the head from side to side but the same distance each side.
- Tilt to the L, and then take the feet apart (hinging on the knee). When taller? How far apart?
- Then stay to the L, and turn heels and toes of both feet towards and away from the ground, together.
- Tilt to the L, and then take the feet apart (hinging on the knee). Farther?
- Tilt to L, stay, lift head a little. So much you do in the upper chest and ribs that you didn’t before.
