Start in mountain pose, standing with your feet hip-width apart and arms at your sides.
Step your left foot back about 3-4 feet and turn it slightly inward, while keeping your right foot facing forward.
Inhale and raise your arms to shoulder height, parallel to the ground, with your palms facing down.
Exhale and bend your right knee, bringing it directly over your ankle while keeping your left leg straight.
Look over your right hand and hold the pose for a few breaths, then inhale and return to mountain pose. Repeat on the other side.
