Lie on your back and bend one knee, then the other, keeping your feet flat on the floor.
From this position open your hips, dropping both knees out to the side and bring the soles of your feet together.
Take a few seconds to allow your inner thighs to stretch.
Inhale and exhale and very gradually push both knees down towards the edge of the mat.
Hold this position.
Once you have finished the stretch, push your feet away until your legs are straight.
At the end of the motion, bring your toes back up towards your head and stretch your calves.
Relax your feet and return to the neutral position.
