Instructions

Setup

  • Sit on a mat with your legs crossed in a comfortable position.

  • Place your hands on your knees to maintain stability.

Movement

  • Start by leaning your torso forward, hinging at the hips while keeping your spine straight.

  • Begin a circular motion by leaning toward one side, moving your torso back, and then toward the opposite side.

  • Imagine moving your ribcage around your pelvis as you complete the circle.

  • Keep your shoulders relaxed and maintain a consistent, controlled depth throughout the movement.

  • Perform the rotations for the specified time or number of repetitions in one direction before switching to the opposite direction.
