How to do it

Lying on your back, stretch your arms along your body. On the inhale, lift your legs vertically up, trying to reach the ceiling with your legs. Lift your back off the floor and raise it towards the ceiling, supporting your weight on your shoulder blades. On the exhale, tilt your pelvis forward, engaging your buttocks and supporting your pelvis with your hands. On the inhale, open your legs wide, with one leg extending forward behind your head and the other leg remaining on the floor. Perform two springy movements. Keep your body still during the exercise. On the exhale, switch legs and repeat the two springy movements. After the exercise, relax in child's pose.
