Staff Pose (Dandasana): Stretching the legs out in front with flexed feet.
Bridge Pose: Lifting the hips up off the mat while keeping the feet and shoulders grounded.
Knee Lifts and Drops: Lifting and lowering one knee at a time, targeting the hips and glutes.
Lower Back Massage: Rolling up and down to massage the lower back.
Twists: Twisting the torso and shoulders side to side while seated.
Balancing Poses (Tree Pose and Crane Pose): Standing on one leg while lifting the other, either bringing it up to the inner thigh or keeping it hovering off the ground.
Hip Circles: Rotating the hips in large circles while standing.
Swaying Side to Side: Swaying the arms and torso from side to side while standing.
Forward Bend (Uttanasana): Bending forward at the hips with straight legs, reaching the hands towards the feet or the floor.

Rolling Back Down: Slowly rolling down to the mat, segment by segment, until only the lower back is slightly lifted off the ground.
These poses provide a sequence for a well-rounded yoga practice, incorporating stretches, strengthening exercises, balance work, and relaxation techniques.
