8m 12s
Join Zakiya to explore cat and cow poses from a chair, the floor, all fours and standing.
In cat and cow poses, you bring the two postures together to create a moving meditation which can be done in coordination with your breath. Cat cow pose increases the flexibility of the neck, shoulders and spine. The movement also stretches the muscles of the hips, back, abdomen and chest. Strengthens your spine.
Make these poses work for you, so try out different variations and adapt your practice to suit your body.
