Part 3/7:
As the session transitions into movement, Adriene instructs participants to move into tabletop position, ensuring that the foundation is solid with hands directly under shoulders and knees under hips. The sequence flows through cat-cow stretches, which help to awaken the body and promote spinal flexibility. As they navigate through these introductory postures, the focus remains on engaging the core and tightening the abdominal muscles to support balance.
The warm-up continues with child's pose and side stretches, where participants walk their hands to each side to deepen the lateral stretch of the body. This is complemented by grounding exercises, helping ensure that the body is adequately prepared for the more challenging postures to come.
