You can do any variation if you want to have your hands to the side or under you, whichever variation you feel most comfortable with. So I up, if you're coming all the way up, you put your hands close to your shoulders and lift your head and chest up. So you have a nice lift through the spine.

Take a deep breath in here to fill up the sacred and breathe out. Relax your bones for a minute. One more time, deeper than all through the whole spinal column and breathe out and then lie down on your backs for next neck pool so the hands will be behind the head.
The elbows are why the feet are hip with the part and the feet of flex. We're going to start lying down. You want to really push into the heels to lengthen the legs out and lift your head and chest and roll up. Lifting up. Take your head right down towards your knees.

Close the legs. Very good. Roll Up. Reached towards the toes. Circle the hands behind you. Stretch them and big circle up and over as you float to the floor. And again, roll back, gentle. Push with the hands.
Help to lift those legs up and over. Open and close the legs. Very good. Roll up to a balanced position. Reach big circle of the arms behind you. Give a stretch through the shoulders. Float the legs in the body to the floor. As you circle way over, deepen into that powerhouse and come up and last one roll again.
Lift those legs, opening close. Very good. Roll up and reach towards the feet. Circle the arms behind you. Lift that chest a little further. Stretch the shoulders, circle all the way around as you float to the floor and come up to a sitting position and bring your feet into a cross legged position for crab. So you want to be able to hold onto your big toe, right? Yes. K Roll Up. So you lift your bottom and put your head on the floor.
So your bottoms up and take a moment just to feel the back of the neck. You want to give yourself a little stretch so that hips come quite a bit up that good. Now roll back onto your shoulders. Roll back, open and close in like sideways. So you change the cross and hold your feet and roll back again. Come up on your knees and stretch and sit back down again. Just a little time disk. Pause for a second. We're going to break this up.
Just I just want to cover the other, it's called crab because you know of crabs, they walk sideways and they have this funny movement going on. So we're emulating that when we go back. Opening close. So you want to have a very sharp movement. Then you open the chest so you stay tight with the shift. And I've heard in the old days they used to actually somersaulted all the way.
So you wouldn't just come up to your neck, but you would actually roll through and do it maybe next time. So holding onto your big toe. Come up on your knees, put your head down and stretch. Gentle stretch for the shoulders and back of the neck. Roll back and open and close and come up and stretch and roll back. Open and close. Come up. Very Good Wendy.
And stretch and roll back. Open and close. You've got the feeling and stretch and roll back. Last one. Open and close. Come up and last. Stretch through the shoulders, through the back of the neck.
Come back down to a sitting position and lift your feet up for seal. So wrapping your hands around your ankles. Shoulders are down. Sim, keep it. Get your feet up. So they are almost in line with the knees, but the shoulders are down and the chest is lifted even though you're in a scoop. Yes. Clap your feet three times. Clap, clap, clap. Roll back to your shoulders. Clap again. Clap, clap, roll up, clap, clap, roll back, clap, clap, clap, roll up, clap, clap, roll back, clap, clap, clap. Come up to a balanced position. Very good.
Stretch your legs out and balance. Control. Roll down onto your backs. Lift both legs straight up to the ceiling. And first of all just lift the hips and float the feet to the floor over your head. Circle the arms around and grab your ankles.
Keeping the powerhouse in the hips lifted. Now they've got the right leg up so you're holding onto the left ankle and then switch your leg. The right leg comes down and you lift the other leg up and float the legs and switch your legs and switch your legs. Try to get the like white up one more time and switch. Very good. Take both legs down and slow.
Now actually from here you can come to a standing position the way you do from seal. So if you're here you can cross your feet and stand up. Good. And then if you had your legs crossed, you swivel around so you're facing your back. Lay for the final pushups. That's it. To the arms of long. Pull the powerhouse in up as you roll down towards the Mat.
Walk all the way out with your hands to a nice plank position. Strong hips and three pushups. Bend. Press up one bend, press up to bend, press up three. Pull the powerhouse up as you walk back. Walk back, walk back, roll all the way up. Lift the arms up. Take your left leg up behind you in the air and walk. Roll down towards the floor with the leg up and walk out with both hands to a plank position with your left leg lifted.
Three pushups again and one and two and three. And now walk the hands back at that like up, up, up absolute almost like a standing split. And then see if you can come float your body forward enough to come up, up, up the leg will slowly, reluctantly come down. Stand on both feet. Very good. Lift the right leg up, lifted up high behind you and then lower down the leg lifts as your body goes down. And walk out to plank. Three pushups one and two and three.
Press the leg up as you walk back with the hands. Take a moment to really stretch that leg up. Stretch the hamstring, then reach forward with the arms. And reluctantly the leg will counter balance as you come up with the body down with the legs. Take the arms up, lengthen through the powerhouse, and slowly float the arms out and down. And just take a moment to stand on your legs. Feel the energy of the legs going down into the mat.
Shift your weight forward of your heel so there's a lightness in the ball of the foot. Get a sense of lift and connection between upper and lower trunk. Long waist lifted chest, broad shoulders. The neck is floating. Take a breath in and breathing out. Let everything go. So you did a wonderful, wonderful job. Very well done.
