Begin in a low squat with your knees wide. Place your hands on the floor in front of you, shoulder-width apart. Hug your knees against your upper arms. Rise onto your toes. Focus your gaze at one point below you, shift forward and lift your toes from the floor. Draw your feet toward your buttocks and try to touch your toes together. Balance in the pose and take slow, deep breaths. Lower with an exhale.
