Hips are the place where most movement comes from in our bodies. They help us to balance, to sit, to stand, to walk and engage in physical activity. In this class the focus is on strengthening, mobilizing and nourishing the hips. There is a nice slow warm up as we check in on our hips with some gentle movements and then we explore hip movements in different positions (on our back, sitting up, on hands and knees and standing) until we close the class with hip release asana and a nice restful savasana. When the hips are released we will experience improved balance, emotional regulation, improved pelvic floor health, reduced low back pain, support for knees and more ease with physical activity.
