Dynamic Yoga – Exercise 1 & 2
Streamlines the waist
and develops balance. Stand with feet 8 inch apart and fix eyes on a point
directly in front of you. Interlock fingers and turn palms outward. Inhale
deeply as you raise arms over your head. As you breathe out, bend from your
waist to your left side, taking care not to reach forwards or backwards. Hold
for a few seconds, then inhale deeply and slowly return to the upright
position.
Kneel and lean
forward to place hands on floor below your shoulders, fingers facing forward,
hands in line with knees. Arms and thighs should be at right angles to the
floor; knees may be slightly separated.
Inhale deeply, raise
head and drop spine so your back is concave. Fill your lungs and hold for three
seconds. As you exhale, lower your head and stretch your spine upwards. At the
end of the breath, pull in your buttocks, contract stomach muscles and place
head between arms.
