Hip Mobility
August Schedule: Week Two
•
33m
Improving hip mobility can enhance more coordination between the hip and pelvic floor muscles, aka they will "communicate better," which can lead to better function of the muscles, reduced tension within the pelvis, better posture, increased range of motion and overall improve your pelvic health.

If even one of those are compromised, dysfunction starts to set in. While perfection is a myth and we all have nuances to our body, hip mobility definitely deserves our attention!
Some of our mobility classes are more passive - this one is more fiery so keep that in mind!
