Sage Visvamitra's on the Knee - Ardha visvamitrasana

STEPS : Begin in Lizard with Straight Arms and drop-down to your back knee. Shorten your stance between your back knee and your front ankle. Bring the top of your inside arm and elbow slightly under your front thigh then create a strong base with your arm by spreading your fingers wide. Micro bend your elbow to create a shelf for your front thigh to rest softly on. Catch hold of the outside edge of your foot with your free hand and begin to straighten your front leg and your supporting arm as much as possible. Expand your chest through your extended leg and arm. Take your gaze upward.
