To Get into This Pose:
To Get into This Pose:
From Tadasana, Inhale the arms up overhead
Exhale, open the arms out to a "T," extending the spine folding forward at the hips,
It's always a good idea to keep the feeling of "cow pose" in your back when doing forward folds to aid in the spinal extension, keeping the back as flat as possible.
