Starting in a standing position, keep your left leg straight and take a small step with your right leg, bringing it toward the left. Maintain a slight bend in the right knee.
With control, begin to hinge (bending at the hips) forward as you push your left hip toward a wall (or another object) behind you.
Maintain a neutral spine as you slowly begin to reach your right hand down, inside your shin. Your left hand should simultaneously reach up toward the ceiling.
As you rotate through your thoracic spine, be sure to follow your hand and look up toward the ceiling to maintain a neutral spine and prevent injury.
