Hips

Hips, the long way round

Half an hour in and around pigeon, with enough props that nobody has to be brave.

What we do

This session works on the hips, in and around pigeon. We start on the floor, move slowly, and stop at three points where you can stay if the next step is too much today.

I talk through the first round and then keep quiet, so you can hear your own breathing instead of mine.

You will need

  • Two cushions or a folded blanket

  • Clothes you can move in

  • About two metres of floor

Go easy if

Anything pinches, tingles or goes numb. Back off to the last position that felt like work rather than warning, and stay there.
