Planks and dolphins

Happy New Year!
These poses create heat in our core and strengthen our shoulders.
Picture
Forearm plank:
Starting on all fours, bring forearms to mat with elbows under shoulders.  Interlace fingers and energetically draw arms towards each other.  Lift belly button towards the spine and extend right leg back with toes tucked.  Extend left leg back moving into forearm plank.  


Picture
Dolphin:
From forearm plank begin to slowly walk toes toward head, lifting the hips into downward dog type position.  Head stays lifted off the mat!  Belly draws up and in while arms push into the mat moving shoulders away from ears.  Knees can remain as bent as needed.
