- From the starting posture, i.e. both hands on your chest and both feet pointing forward pivot on your left heel turn your left foot out 90 degrees to externally or outwards pointing to the left as you simultaneously open both arms up wide, keeping the arms (elbows) straight and at shoulder height with palms facing up, until you reach the maximum stretch in your chest and arms.
- Return your hands to the starting position and repeat the stretch, i.e. open up in the shape of a cross, as you pivot on your right heel turning externally or outwards to the right.
- Remember to take a deep breath as you open up and exhale as you close in (as you fold your arms into the chest).
