Partner Yoga Pose: Flying Bow

FitSugar — Fri, 25 Apr 2008 14:30:00 PDT

When you do Bow pose on your own while lying on your belly, it's really difficult to get a good stretch in your spine because gravity is working against you. Flipping the pose over with help from a partner and trying it upside down feels amazing. The person on top will get an unbelievable stretch in her torso, chest, and shoulders, and the person on the bottom will greatly appreciate the pressure and support on his lower back.

I know this pose looks like a really advanced move, but if you learn how to do it a step at a time, you'll be flying in no time. Keep reading to find out how to get into this safely.

Partner Yoga Pose: Seated Bow

FitSugar — Fri, 11 Apr 2008 14:00:00 PDT

One of my favorite backbends in yoga is Bow pose. If you have a hard time holding your ankles with your hands, then you won't even be able to feel the amazing stretch in your chest and shoulders. So that's why doing this pose with a friend is so great. This is actually a move your therapist might do with you if you had a Thai massage.

You're asking and I'm answering . . .

"Hi Fit!! I'm taking a yoga class at the university gym. Once every class, the teacher will ask us to do the wheel and everybody either can or can't do it. I can't but would love to learn how. How can I build up to be able to do the wheel? Thanks!!"

Celebrity Style: Nicky Hilton

FabSugar — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 12:00:22 PST

While big sis Paris wore next to nothing for her Vegas birthday bash, Nicky Hilton opted for a classier ensemble with her Sass & Bide bow dress. The mix of silver accessories gives the look a relaxed feel. Some girls would be intimidated by a sexily dressed sister, but Nicky seems comfortable being the cute and covered-up sibling.

Cheap & Chic: Bow-tiful Tops

FabSugar — Wed, 30 Jan 2008 03:00:22 PST

Bows are über girlie, but when paired with masculine pieces, they create an outfit nothing short of perfection. Elisha Cuthbert has achieved just that. Her feminine, oversized, Phillip Lim satin bow top is downplayed by her high-waisted trouser jeans. Genius. Should you desire to tie yourself a bow, follow Elisha's lead, and do so for under $100.

Strike a Yoga Pose: Bow

FitSugar — Wed, 26 Dec 2007 04:00:00 PST

I thought it would be fitting to do a pose called Bow the day after Christmas. OK, so maybe this pose has nothing to do with ribbons or presents, and the bow instead is referring to a bow and arrow, but I thought it would be cute anyway. This pose is best done on an empty stomach, and really works on increasing flexibility in your spine. I also love how it gives you a great stretch in your chest and shoulders.

Sanskrit Name: Dhanurasana
English Translation: Bow Pose

Want to give it a try? Then

Lie flat on your stomach, pressing your belly button into the ground.
Bend your knees and grab onto the outside edge of your right ankle, and then your left.
Once you have a firm hold of each ankle, try to keep your toes together, either pointing or flexing your feet. Now lift your feet up as high as you can, and shift your weight forward so that you're resting on your naval instead of on your pubic bone.
Hold for five deep breaths and then slowly lower and lie flat. Turn your head to one side and shake your hips from side to side to release your lower back.
Repeat again or relax in Child's Pose.
