Cat-Cow Stretch

In a quadruped position on hands and knees, alternate between arching the back and lifting the head (cow) and tucking the chin and rounding the spine (cat).

Key points

  • Inhale as the belly softens and gaze lifts in cow pose
  • Exhale as you press the floor away and round through the upper back in cat pose

Common mistakes

Moving too rapidly without coordinating breath with spinal flexion and extension.
