    • Begin in a child's pose position, with your knees wide, allowing your torso to fold over your thighs. Stretch your arms out long in front of you on the mat.
    • Start to move your body side to side, to warm up your hips. Then begin to create circles with your hips, moving forward, to the sides, and back.
    • Continue for 8 breaths, switching directions halfway through.

    Cat-Cow

    • Come to all fours. Ground down through your palms.
    • As you inhale, drop your belly, and bring your gaze up to the sky.

    • From here, move your body intuitively, stretching from side to side as you need.
    • Continue for 8 breaths.

    • Continue for 8 breaths, then continue to low lunge on that side.

    Low Lunge

    • From a downward-dog position, lift your right leg and place your foot in between your hands. Let your back knee, shin, and the top of your left foot rest on the mat.
    • Allow your hips to sink down toward the mat, creating a nice stretch.
    • Stretch your arms into the air, keeping your biceps by your ears. (If you'd like, cactus your arms open for an extra stretch.)

    • Engage your core and begin to lean back, lifting your feet off the floor, balancing on your seat.
