How to do it
- Lie on your back, knees bent, feet flat. Breathe in, float your arms up and nod your chin.
- Breathe out and peel your head, shoulders and back off the mat, hands behind your thighs to help, up to a C-curve.
- Breathe in. Breathe out and roll back down one part of your back at a time, head last. Feet stay down.
Common mistakes
Feet lift
Feet lifting as you come up. Keep them heavy on the mat, and let your hands help.
Back straight
Back straight, lifting in one piece. Round your back and peel up one part at a time.
Chin leads
Chin poking forward, pulling with your neck. Nod your chin and lead with your belly.
