Arctic Animal Yoga 

Moose (Warrior Pose)

Stand in mountain pose and step one foot back, slightly angling it outward. Ben your front knee and reach your hands to the sky spreading your fingers out like moose antlers.

Walrus (upward-facing dog pose)

Lay down on your stomach, lift up your head and shoulders off the ground. Place your palms flat on the ground and gently lift up to arch your back like a walrus

Narwhal (locust or superman pose)

Lay down on your stomach, gently lift your chest and shoulders creating a soft arch in your back. Lift your arms forward in front of you and put your palms together creating the narwhal’s horn. 

Polar Bear (Downward facing dog)

Come onto the floor on your hands and knees. Take a deep breath and lift your knees away from the floor, extending your legs creating a V shape. Walk like a polar bear back and forth across the floor. 

Snow Goose (Pigeon Pose)

From polar bear pose, bring your right foot behind your right hand placing your foot slightly inwards. Perch like a snow goose! Switch sides and repeat.

Musk Ox (Cat pose)

Get on all fours with your palms flat on the ground, tuck your chin into your chest and round your back. Walk slow like an ox.

Arctic Fox (Kneeling pose)

Come to kneeling with your arms at your side. Open your chest and reach up with your arms to the moon like a fox. 

Arctic Hare (Hero’s pose)

Rest upright on your feels and place your hands on your thighs. Take a few short and quick breaths through your nose, and then take a long exhale. 

Snowy Owl (Seated Twist)

From the arctic hare pose, bend your right knee and cross your right leg over and place your foot next to your left thigh. Bend your left knee and position your left ankle next to your right glute. Reach your right arm behind you and raise your left arm upward. Hook your left arm around your bent right knee. Take a deep breath. Repeat on the other side. 

Seal (Resting Pose)

Lie on your back with your arms alongside your body and your legs tight together. Pretend that you are a seal resting on a nice rock. Stretch out your arms and legs and rest as long as you like!
