How to do it

From a wide stance, bend the front knee to a right angle, rest the front forearm on the knee or the floor, and draw one long diagonal line from the straight back leg through the raised arm.

What it should feel like

A long stretch through the side body and groin, while the outer edge of the back foot presses firmly into the floor.

Common mistakes

Letting the front knee collapse inward. Keep tracking the knee out over the toes.
