Stage 6
Stage 5: Raise the knees to the vertical position. Keeping the heels near the buttocks, slowly straighten the hips so that the thighs move up and away from the torso.
Raise the knees until they point directly upward and the thighs are in line with the trunk.
Balance the body.
Stage 6: Slowly straighten the knees and raise the calves. The whole body should be in one straight line with the feet relaxed.
This is the final position.
Close the eyes and balance the whole body, relaxing in the final position for as long as is comfortable.
Stage 7: Return to the starting position.
Slowly bend the knees and lower the body with control in the reverse order until the toes touch the floor. Remain with the head on the ground in the kneeling position for a short time, then slowly return to the upright position.
