How to do Toe Touch Twist
StandingFlowing movementBeginner
Toe Touch Twist is a standing flowing stretch for your abdomen, glutes and hamstrings.
Step by step
- 1Step your feet out nice and wide and stretch your arms out to the sides at shoulder height, like a big star.
What you should feel
Let your top arm float up to the sky.
Form tips
- Top arm reaches straight up, open the chest. Hinge from the hips, keep the spine long. Smooth and controlled, no bouncing.
- Soft knees are fine.
- Move with your breath… slow and easy.
Make it easier
If your back needs a gentler day, reach for your shin instead of your foot.
Coming out of it
Come back up to standing… arms down… and step your feet together.
Muscles it works
Move slowly and stop if anything hurts. This is general guidance, not medical advice; check with a professional if you're injured or recovering.
