The main one is the same as the breathing exercise but sitting:
* Sit on a firm chair with feet flat on the floor and knees at 90 deg.
* Roll the hips backwards (Tight abs) and forwards (arched back) to warm things up.
* Engage the abs to flatten the lower back and bring the hips backwards.
* While keeping the lower back flat and absolutely stable (work the abs), raise the thorax. If this is too difficult, go back to lying down version (previous post).
* After mastering this, try adding gentle rotation.
* Always think looooong spine and neck and stable core.
