Movement · The Original 10
The Seal
The short answer
Playful balance and coordination to finish. Hug the ankles from the inside, balance on the sit bones, clap the feet together like a seal, and roll back and up without letting the feet touch down.
8–10 reps
Breath, Inhale to roll back · Exhale to roll up and balance
How to do it
Hug the ankles from the inside, balance on the sit bones, clap the feet together like a seal, and roll back and up without letting the feet touch down.
Breath: inhale to clap and roll back; exhale to clap again at the top, balanced on the sit bones.
Be mindful
- Keep the deep C-curve and hold it as you roll.
- Roll with control from the center, never onto the neck.
- Find your balance at the top before you roll back.
Modification
Skip the claps and simply roll back and up, or hold the balance, until the control comes.
