Make it your movement
Keep ribs over hips and shoulders relaxed. Open only within a pain-free range; avoid excessive back arching or holding your breath.
Choose by comfort and ability, not age alone. Clear your space and start slowly. Stop for pain, dizziness, or chest discomfort; seek urgent medical help for chest pain or severe symptoms. Ask a qualified professional about injuries or health concerns. Illustrations are not a substitute for individual form assessment.
