Head-to-Knee

Head-to-Knee is an excellent stretch for kids of all ages and abilities! Children stretch their legs, as they gently reach for their toes.

Some of our favorite yoga activities that use Head-to-Knee are Cowboy Days and The Snowy Day.

Step 4
Hold onto your left foot, and hold this position for a couple of breaths.

Step 5
Slowly return to upright, then repeat with your opposite side.
