- Stand in the center of your mat, facing the long edge.
- Step your feet about 3 ½ feet apart, turning your right toes to the short edge of the mat and your left toes in about 30°
- Inhale: raise the arms to shoulder height. Exhale: shift the left hip back toward the left foot and reach the right arm long toward the front of your mat
- Inhale: lengthen the side body. Exhale: hinge at the right hip, reaching your right hand toward your shin or the floor and your left hand toward the sky

- Inhale: press both feet firmly into the mat to rise back upright
- Exhale: turn both toes to the long edge, gently bend knees and step back to mountain pose.
