Two more rounds follow with the kneeling lunge Crescent Moon Pose (Anjaneyasana) plus a variation of this, and also a Half Dog aka Puppy Pose (Uttana Shishosana) to stretch the sides of the body. In the next round you'll be doing standing lunges and an extended Standing Forward Bend (Uttanasana). You'll finish this class lying on the floor again for some more variations of Bridge Pose (Setu Bhandasana) before resting in Savasana.
Props needed: A blanket for under your knees plus two bricks.
