The lesson begins on the back, reaching with one arm across the body to explore rib and shoulder movement. It transitions to the side, sliding the head and weight off the bottom shoulder while lengthening the top leg. Finally, students return to their back to lift the feet by pressing the back of the hip joint into the floor.
