Flow of the Week - Wide-Legged Forward Fold
Aug 30
1 min read
I love a good wide-legged forward fold. Apart from being a really satisfying stretch, there are lots of great transitions from this pose. Some ideas:
Various types of folds - grab big toes, hands under feet, hands interlaced behind back
Twists left and right, option to grab opposite ankle
Swivel to pyramid or really, any standing pose on either side of the mat, by adjusting the feet. It's a great way to transition from one end of the mat to the other too.
Swivel and drop to a half monkey
Skandasana
Jump in to Malasana
Bend knees to Goddess
Shift weight into one foot and gently slide the other foot along to come into a balancing pose of your choice
Float into a headstand
Slide out into the middle splits
What else can you think of?
