August Schedule: Week Four
There are 6 classes in this playlist. 3 stability classes and 3 Opening type classes.
Recommendation:
- Take 4 classes per week (more if you want!)
- If you are hypertonic - please make sure you've done at least 3 weeks of Restore Your Pelvic Floor, focusing on creating space in the pelvis and pelvic floor. Then gently add stability type of work. Pay attention to what lands well. I recommend a daily journal where you jot down what you did and how you felt. Especially in the beginning.
- Take 1-3 opening type classes and 2-3 stability (add anything else that your body is asking for)
- On days off, get on the floor! Spend 10 minutes doing moves that feel good in your body. Focus on the ones that target what you're working on. Email me if you need help figuring that out!
Don't forget to add classes to your favorites. If you take a class and it made you feel incredible, save it and come back to it again and again. I promise, it's always better then 2nd time around! Your body is already familiar with the flow and the transitions.

TLC for Psoas & Hip Flexors
Today we are giving some love and attention to the deep core muscle, the psoas alongside the other hip flexors. Yes the psoas is a hip flexor but it's also a spine stabalizer amongst other roles. Because a muscle is more apt to releasing when you've gently engaged it, we will be doing some stab...

Creating Pelvic Awareness & Space
Before we can create stability and strength in the pelvic floor, we must first create space. Many people who come to pelvic health yoga have been struggling with a pelvic floor that is what we call, hypertonic, or in a state of tension. It leads to many symptoms and a lot discomfort. This flow...
