How to do it

Steps :

1.) Start by sitting on the ground with your legs out to the sides in a 90-degree angle, knees and toes pointing straight up.

2.) Take your right hand and place it upon your right thigh, then inhale and raise your left arm up and curve it over the right so it create a "C" over the right side of your body.

3.) Keeping your left arm and shoulder in the same plane as your right, start to slide your right hand down your leg, holding this position for a few seconds.

4.) Twist your hips towards the floor and lower your left hand towards your right foot and grasp the foot with both hands.

5.) Hold this position for a few seconds and then walk your hands towards the center of your spread legs keeping the stretch in tact and switch over to the opposite leg.
