Flexibility
Forward Bend
The posture consists of standing with feet together, then hinging forward from the hips, letting the head hang, with palms placed flat on the floor near the feet.
Upward Salute
Breaking out the action of raised arms here in simple poses such as Tadasana (Mountain Pose), Virasana (Hero Pose), Vajrasana (Thunderbolt Pose) or Sukhasana (Comfortable Pose) will enable you to begin softening and opening up the shoulder girdle before engaging in poses where the arms bear weight.
