Gina and I are now going to demonstrate another forward pull with one leg. Eka Pada Paschimottanasana that just means one leg forward pull. We are going to face each other coming back to the back of the mat and actually we don't have to be back that far. We are going to bend our left knee and extend our right foot right into your partner's shins. You want to make sure you are not hurting but you just want to press enough to give them a little bit of length. Good. You are going to take your partner by the wrist, inhale and lengthen up and as we exhale Gina is going to lean forward as I draw back so make sure you talk to your partner to see where is that sweet spot, very sweet, how we've doing?
