How to do it

  1. Kneel on one knee with the other foot in front, then ease your hips forward.
  2. Stand tall and move your hips forward, not down.
  3. Tuck your tailbone under a little and you will feel it more. A folded towel under the knee is nice.
  4. Switch sides and repeat. The app tells you when.

Move within a range that feels comfortable and stop if something feels wrong. Movemint plays this with a 3D guide, a spoken countdown and a rest timer, free and offline.
