Pigeon 1

TRANSITION: Get up
on your hands and knees... Bring your right knee
forward and up and put your right foot on the outside of
your left knee with the top of your right foot on the
ground. (It's not as bad as it looks!)

Hold for
10-20 seconds. Focus on arching your back and
stretching your left leg back. |
Right
Pigeon 2

TRANSITION: Just
lift your back leg -- if you can. I couldn't do this
at all when I first tried. Frighteningly, the full
posture has your left knee way off the ground and your left
foot ON THE TOP OF YOUR HEAD! Yeah, uh, good luck with
that.
Hold for
10-20 seconds. Still focus on arching your back and
point that toe! This one will really work on that
caboose. |
Right
Pigeon 3

TRANSITION: Put your
left leg back down (whew!) and fold forward.
Hold for
10-20 seconds. Focus on stretching your arms way out
in front of you and remember to breathe. |
Left
Pigeon 1

TRANSITION:
Now for the other side... From the last posture, slide your
hands back. Get up on your hands and knees again...
Bring your left knee forward and up and put your left foot
on the outside of your right knee with the top of your left
foot on the ground.
Hold for
10-20 seconds. Focus on arching your back and
stretching your right leg back. |

lopsided, do you? |
