Seated Half-Crescent Moon Stretch in Partner Yoga

Video Transcript

Now moving to warm up the sides of the body we are again going to come back to back easy seated pose, suka sama, good. So just take your hands to your thighs and lengthen your long spine. Reach your arms down and then reach them up to the sky, good. Find your partner's hands and press in to the palms of her hands, maybe the outsides, maybe the insides. If you have a particularly tall partner, sometimes you may be pressing into their forearm. We're going to inhale, lengthen up, and as you exhale take your front arm down and reach over with the back arm pressing your back hip right down into the earth rolling your shoulder over and reaching your arm forward. A really great stretch all the way from your hip to your fingertips. Take care that you're not mashing your partner's hand down on the ground. Good, inhale all the way back up and exhale and then roll over to the other side again pressing your hip right down as you open your trunk, open the side door to the heart, the side rib cage, lengthening long, good inhale reaching back up and we're going to do that again, just reaching over to the side, feeling that nice long side stretch and one more time over into the other direction, good, inhale, reach the arms up and as you exhale draw the energy into the heart center.
