Another variation of Saddle is Half-Saddle. This pose is much like the Saddle but done with only one leg at a time. The arch on the sacro-lumbar spine is less than in the full Saddle but the stretch on the thigh is more.

Half-Saddle is done with the foot resting alongside rather than under the buttock. The free leg can be positioned as one wishes (A or B).

Hold Half-Saddle one to three minutes each side.

Folded Pose

This pose is a gentle stretch for the spine and a mild exercise for the hip joints. It is a nice way to help unwind any tension in the spine from doing backward bends such as Saddle.

Lying on your back draw your right knee to your chest clasping both hands on the knee (A). For a gentle stretch of the upper spine, you may bring your forehead toward your knee as well.

Hold this posture about three breaths, then change sides. After doing each side do both legs together (B).
