Toe Breaker Pose Purpose of this stretch: Many of my yoga students are runners, so I always include Toe Breaker pose in the sequencing. It's the ultimate stretch for the arches of the feet, but also stretches the front of the thighs. This stretch is intense! Kneel on the floor. Tuck your toes toward your knees. Stay here if this is enough of a stretch, or if you want to go deeper, slowly lower your pelvis to sit on your heels. Hold this stretch for five breaths, leaning the torso back if you want to intensify the stretch. Don't forget to breathe! Image Source: POPSUGAR Photography / Louisa Larson
