Kneeling Quad Stretch

You can add in a little extra quad flexibility to your Low Crescent Lunge by incorporating an extra quad stretch, said Kelly Clifton Turner, yoga teacher and director of education for YogaSix.

  • Start in a Low Crescent Lunge with your back knee on the ground.
  • Pull your back foot in toward your hip, holding the top of the foot with your hand.
  • Rest your opposite forearm on your thigh, staying here for at least five breaths.
  • Release the back leg, plant your hands on the ground, and step your front foot back.
  • Go into Downward-Facing Dog, then step the opposite foot forward and repeat.
