General Pelvic Health Support (Stability)
October Schedule: Week Four
•
40m
In today's class we are moving through many postures that help to create space and stability in the pelvis. We are doing several moves inspired by my own Pelvic Physical Therapy journey that had a huge impact on my own pelvic health. We don't gate-keep around here! We will do a move that helps you ground down through the big toe as well as hip rotations at the wall using a foam roller and I literally do those everyday, or at least every other day.
This is an All Levels Class and if you are new to yoga, there will be some challenging positions but nothing too crazy. Keep coming back and you will get better each time!
You'll need several things for class today:
Light Resistance Band
Tennis Ball
Hand Towel (forgot to list in video!)
Foam Roller (can still do without but get one or something similar eventually because it's a game changer)
Strap
Yoga Blocks
