ground, bending the spine to the maximum without pain.
While exhaling slowly and keeping the arms straight, raise
the hips, forming an upward arch. Imagine hips being raised to the
sky, heels to the ground, knees locked and back straight. Take

extending the length from heel to bottom of the spine.
Exhale slowly and keeping hands firmly in place, gracefully
jump feet together to align them with the hands. Touch the head to
the knees, if possible.
