Dog & Cat Pose

Another important Yoga posture is the dog and cat pose. The dog and cat Yoga pose increases flexibility of spine. Dog and cat pose, in fact, consists of two poses, one closely following the other. To practice the dog and cat Yoga pose you have to begin on your hands and knees. Now put your hands just in front of your shoulders and your legs apart. As you start inhaling, incline the tailbone and pelvis upwards and let the spine curve go downward, putting the stomach low, lift your head up. Stretch out smoothly. As you start the exhaling part, move into the cat pose by reversing the spinal bend, sloping the pelvis down, pulling the spine up and drawing the chest and stomach in. Replicate the moves several times ensuring smooth flow from dog into cat and cat back into dog posture.
