    The Cat series is ideal for loosening and stretching of the spine andhips. Pregnant woman and sufferers of chronic back pain will find theCat series beneficial. During pregnancy, the three traditional posesof Cobra, Locust, and Bow cannot be performed. The stretchesoffered in this series are a good substitute for the three traditionals;or, as my students have discovered, the perfect warm up for thosethree challenging poses.
