Your Spine Is Stiffer Than You Think

Coaching notes

From full flexion in Cat Pose, initiate extension vertebra by vertebra from pelvis to cervical spine into Cow, then reverse segment by segment.

Key points

  • Move one individual vertebra at a time rather than hinging in blocks
  • Keep arms straight and wrists stacked under shoulders

Common mistakes

Moving the whole spine as a single rigid unit; rushing through transitions.
