Here is a step-by-step guide to performing Dolphin Pose (Ardha Pincha Mayurasana) for beginners: 🧘 Step-by-Step Instructions: Starting Position: Begin on your hands and knees in a tabletop position. Align your wrists under your shoulders and knees under your hips. Forearm Placement: Lower your forearms to the mat, keeping them shoulder-width apart. Your elbows should be directly under your shoulders. Press your palms firmly into the ground or bring your hands together in a prayer position. Tuck Your Toes: Curl your toes under and prepare to lift your hips. Lift Your Hips: On an exhale, lift your knees off the mat, straightening your legs as much as possible. Reach your hips toward the ceiling, creating an inverted “V” shape with your body. Adjust Your Feet: Keep your feet hip-width apart and your heels reaching toward the ground (they don't need to touch the floor). Engage Your Core: Draw your belly button toward your spine to support your lower back. Relax Your Neck: Let your head hang freely between your upper arms without any tension in your neck. Keep your gaze toward your feet. Breathe: Hold the pose for 5 to 10 breaths, maintaining a steady and even breath. Release: To exit the pose, slowly lower your knees back to the mat and rest in Child’s Pose. ✅ Tips for Beginners: If your hamstrings feel tight, bend your knees slightly. Press evenly through your forearms to avoid straining your shoulders. Keep your back flat and avoid collapsing into your shoulders.
