Form sequence

  1. 01 · setup

    Lie down on the floor placing your feet either under something that will not move or by having a partner hold them. Your legs should be bent at the knees.

  2. 02 · start position · Key step

    Elevate your upper body so that it creates an imaginary V-shape with your thighs. Your arms should be fully extended in front of you perpendicular to your torso and with the hands clasped. This is the starting position.

  3. 03 · twist right

    Twist your torso to the right side until your arms are parallel with the floor while breathing out.

  4. 04 · hold and switch

    Hold the contraction for a second and move back to the starting position while breathing out. Now move to the opposite side performing the same techniques you applied to the right side.

  5. 05 · repeat

    Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.
