Pancake stretch

Sit in a wide straddle with your knees pointing up towards the ceiling. Engage your quads and don’t let your knees roll forwards – keep your legs engaged in external rotation to keep the knees pointing up at the ceiling! Stick your tail bone out and tilt from your hips, keeping your back flat and going only as low as you can while keeping a flat back. You can take your hands to your ankles or you can have them out in front of you – whatever feels comfortable, but don’t be tempted to round forwards – keep your chest lifted and be strict about keeping your flat back, even if it means coming a little higher in your stretch! You should feel this stretch in your hamstrings and inner thighs.
