Downward Dog

One shape that reaches the whole back of the body.

Downward Dog, floor position

30s hold · floor

Hips high. Chest toward your thighs.

  1. Start on hands and knees, hands under your shoulders.
  2. Tuck your toes and lift your hips up and back.
  3. Press the floor away and let your chest drift toward your thighs.
  4. Pedal your heels or hold them still — either works.

Tips: Bend the knees as much as you need to keep your spine long. Spread your fingers and press through the whole hand.

Easier: Hands on a chair seat or wall for a standing version.
