See you on the mat.
Alright,
Let's first start with checking the wrist and ankle.
And breathe deeply in and out for you.
And from here,
Let's roll the shoulder up and back.
Make your feet parallel toward one another.
Can you keep yourself three more times a year?
And one and two and three and chain direction please.

So we're losing it up right here.
And then carefully,
You're going to come to stop.
