Knee Butterfly
Instructions
Setup
Lie flat on your back on a stable surface or yoga mat.
Position your feet close together, placing the soles of your feet against each other.
Movement
Slowly allow your knees to fall outward toward the floor, keeping your feet touching for as long as possible.
Maintain a neutral spine and ensure your lower back stays against the mat throughout the movement.
Hold the position at the point of mild tension or discomfort, breathing deeply to facilitate relaxation in the hips.
Return to the starting position by bringing the knees back toward the center in a controlled, rhythmic motion.
