Dolphin Pose | Ardha Pincha Mayurasana

Dolphin pose (Ardha Pincha Mayurasana) instructions, illustration, and mindfulness practice. Learn about preparatory, complementary and follow-up poses, and discover all health benefits. https://www.spotebi.com/exercise-guide/dolphin-pose/

DOLPHIN POSE INSTRUCTIONS

1. Get down on your hands and knees, with your knees under the hips and your hands under the shoulders.
2. Press your palms and forearms into the floor, place the soles of your feet on the floor and, as you straighten the knees, lift your hips up and back.
3. Stay in dolphin pose for 30 seconds to 1 minute.

MINDFULNESS PRACTICE

Exhale as you straighten the knees, press your thighs back, lift the hips and push your heels down. Press the forearms into the floor, draw your shoulder blades together and be careful not to round your back.

ARDHA PINCHA MAYURASANA BENEFITS

The dolphin pose opens the chest, stretches the back of the legs and shoulders, and strengthens the arms and legs. This pose helps to elongate the spine, relieves stress and calms the brain.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

Ankle or shoulder injury.

PREPARATORY, COMPLEMENTARY AND FOLLOW-UP POSES
