Step the right foot over the left leg and stand it on the floor outside your left hip. The right knee must be pointing directly up at the ceiling.
- Breathe out or exhale twisting toward the inside of your right thigh. Press the right hand against the floor just behind your right buttock, and set your left upper arm on the outside of your right thigh near the knee. Pull the front of your torso and inner right thigh together.
