Downward Facing Dog

  • From Twisting Lizard on the left side, step your left foot back and press your hips up, coming into Downward Facing Dog (also called Down Dog).
  • Make sure your hands are shoulder-width distance apart, pressing firmly into your palms to lengthen the spine as much as you can. The feet are hips-width distance apart with the heels slightly wider than the toes so the outside edges of your feet are parallel with the outside edges of your mat.
  • Press your heels down to the floor to stretch the backs of your legs, enjoying this pose for five deep breaths.
