Wide-Legged Forward Fold illustration

How to do it

Step your feet wide with the toes parallel, then exhale and hinge from the hips to fold your torso down between your legs.

What it should feel like

A long stretch through the inner hamstrings and back while the head hangs heavy. Keep the knees soft, not locked.

Common mistakes

Rounding the back on the way down. The fold starts at the hips, not the waist.
