Stand up on your knees so that they are closer than hip-width apart. Press your hands against the back of your pelvis. Lean your head and shoulders back as far as you can keeping the position of your hips. Gradually tilt your head back. Bring your hands forward and reach toward the floor behind you over your head. Keep your thighs perpendicular to the floor as you go backward. Put your hands on the floor, fingers pointing toward your feet, then lower the crown of your head to the floor. Lifting your pelvis, walk your hands to your feet. Lower your forearms to the floor. Draw your elbows toward each other and put your forehead on the floor. Go back in the reverse order.
