  1. Half Moon Pose
    Keep your gaze on a single point on the floor. Exhale and put the
    weight forward into the front leg lifting the back leg parallel with the
    floor. Place the front hand onto a brick, your fingertips or even flat on
    the floor. For those with the hand flat to the floor you can challenge
    yourself further by lifting the gaze. For an even stronger variation you
    can bend the top leg and grab hold of the shin, ankle or foot and then
    kick it away from you. Come back down to Warrior 2 and repeat on
    the other side.

  2. Bowing Triangle


Come back through Warrior 2 then square the feet. Interlace the hands
behind your back and fold forwards. If your head is on the floor, step
the feet closer together.



  1. Standing Balance
    Transfer the weight into your left leg. Bend the right knee and take hold
    of the outside edge of the ankle. Bring the knees together, tuck the tail
    bone under and squeeze the glutes. Reach the left hand out in front
    of you and make a mudra – join the tips of the thumb and forefinger –
    then lift the back leg up towards the ceiling. Take a breath and repeat
    on the opposite side.
