Bend your right knee so it’s directly above the ankle.
Place your right hand on the floor outside the right foot, or on a block.

Stretch your left arm over your left ear, creating a straight diagonal line from the left foot to the fingertips.
Press the outer edge of the left foot firmly down.
Keep the chest open and the spine lengthened.
