Begin in basic stance:
Your feet
are positioned directly under your hip bones, parallel to each other, and your
weight is centered and distributed evenly over both soles. Your knees are
slightly bent (soft), and your pelvis is tucked slightly under (pubic bone
toward the navel) in the neutral
position. Your ribcage is pulled up out of your waist; your shoulder
blades are pulled together and slightly down the spine. Your neck is long, in
extension of your spine.
Ribcage
drop:
Breathe out and allow your ribcage to sink down slightly without allowing
your shoulders to slump forward.
