Let's focus on our hips for whole body benefits! Improve circulation, flexibility, and movement in your hips, back, and legs. Tight hips can be a cause of chronic back pain, knee pain, and more. This slow and focused functional approach to the practice will help ease problematic tension by opening, lengthening, massaging, and relaxing the muscles and connective tissues that surround and support the hips. With Melanie Eldridge.
