Hips
This series is focused on cultivating balance in the hips and pelvis. With a nuanced approach that goes well beyond the outdated notion that what hips require to feel good is endless opening or passive stretching. The aim of this series is to help establish a well rounded range of movement and to highlight how the hips relate to moving well on and off the mat.
