  • Begin in Hero Pose. 
  • Inhale deeply. 
  • On exhale, open your mouth wide, stick out your tongue, eyes look up, and make a breathy roar!
  • Variation: wide legged hero pose, with hands on the mat between knees, with fingers pointing behind you. 
  • Variation: As you exhale, you leap forward as if to pounce.
