Focus

This class takes a focused approach to hip mobility within standing poses, offering a powerful way to release restrictions and enhance freedom in the hip joints. With minimal props, you’ll work through carefully selected variations of Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana, Trikonasana, Parsvakonasana, and more—each designed to target the hip socket region and improve range of motion. The sequencing blends strength and stability with deep opening, making it an accessible yet effective practice for anyone looking to balance flexibility and support in the hips. The class concludes with Supta Padangusthasana, a reclining pose that allows for a final, hip release. Expect to strengthen your legs, refine your alignment, and unlock greater ease in your hips, all while working within the familiar structure of standing asanas.
