Course Overview

Description

This advanced seven-part course is designed for experienced students ready to build on the foundations of the intermediate gluteal strengthening and mobility program. It extends your practice by deepening your understanding and capability with the gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, and gluteus minimus, the three critical muscles in the buttock region responsible for hip and thigh movement, pelvic stability, and hip abduction. The advanced course features two strengthening classes, two dynamic vinyasa-style classes, and a therapeutic session targeting the piriformis muscle alongside the gluteal group.

Experienced practitioners often encounter tightness in the gluteal muscles, leading to hip pain, lower back discomfort, and posture issues. This course addresses these challenges by incorporating advanced techniques to enhance both flexibility and strength. The dynamic vinyasa classes introduce fluid, vigorous sequences to challenge and engage the glutes, while the therapeutic class offers specialised poses to release tension in the piriformis and gluteals, providing relief from conditions such as hip bursitis. By participating in this advanced series, you’ll unlock greater mobility, stability, and strength in your practice, enabling you to perform complex asanas with improved alignment and ease.
