Then stretching to splits (depending on age/ability) V-Sit ups, ankle Rolls, Bridge Up then Roll or Tables for boys and little ones. Arms Out roll neck from side to side up and down. Total Wram Up should be at least 10-15 Minutes with Cool Down at end of class which usually consists of some sit ups, Push Ups or some easy Handstands up on wall mat.
