Many people believe that the only way to create stability & strength in the pelvic floor is to do kegels or core work. This is not true. Any time we draw our bodies outside of a neutral position the pelvic floor engages to support the stabalization of the pelvis and trunk. It's part of the reason why when we lift out foot we don't topple over.
In today's practice we use a chair to help us attain alignment in our postures and help us focus on our awareness of where we are in space, called proprioception. We start with breath work and then visit several variations of a standing balance pose that will challenge our entire body to work together to create stability. All while staying mentally grounded and present.
You'll need: a chair, blocks and a strap
