Move Your Body, Stretch Your Mind

July Pose of the Month

Wild Thing Pose
From Downward Dog, bring your weight into your right hand and roll onto the outer edge of your right foot. Step your left foot back and place your toes on the floor with your knee bent at 90 degrees. Exhale and, keeping your right leg straight, push your body away from the floor. Use your legs and buttocks to lift your tailbone and hips as high as you can, until you are almost standing on your right foot. Keep breathing and curl your head back, extending your left arm from your heart and expressing the freedom from your heart. 


Anatomical Focus
  • Heart
Benefits
  • Opens the shoulders, chest, spine, and hips
  • Strengthens the lower back
  • Exhilarating emotional release
Contraindications and Cautions
  • Back injuries beware.
  • If the head of the arm bone on the foundational arm doesn’t move into the socket, shoulder injury can occur.
  • This pose may very well change you life. Be ready!
