What you'll work on
The wave broken down vertebra by vertebra, from the head to the pelvis and back the other way. You work it against a wall before doing it standing — it's the only way to feel what's actually moving.
How it unfolds
- 0:0001 — Against the wall, vertebra by vertebra
- 4:2002 — Downward
- 8:0003 — Upward
- 10:4004 — With the music

Warm up before you start, and stop at the first sign of joint pain. If you have a recent injury, back problems or a pregnancy, ask a doctor first.
