Description

Get on all fours, resting on your fingertips, with your hands under your shoulders and your knees under your hips, keeping your trunk engaged. Gently shift your body weight onto your hands by moving your shoulders slightly forward over your wrists, and distribute the pressure across your fingertips. Then explore several orientations by turning your hands outward, then inward. Perform the movement gradually and in a controlled manner, without pushing into pain.
