Hips & Yoga Workshop

How to improve hip flexibility and mobility whilst increasing joint stability in yoga āsana.

In our Yoga practice we are continually challenged to increase the range of movement in our hips to safely and sustainably master Yoga asana.

Traditional Yoga approaches tend to seek greater flexibility through more passive stretching approaches and you will often find it described as hip opening. This kind of approach can lead us to fight the natural processes of the body. Our hips do not need to be opened, but they can be persuaded to yield greater range of movement if we work in a way that the body perceives to be safe.

In this workshop we will look at the anatomy of the hips, sharing intelligent approaches for your yoga practice to safely increase flexibility and mobility, whilst also increasing the strength and stability of the hip joint structure.

This workshop will consist of:
- An anatomical exploration of the hip joint
- Sharing of simple and accessible strategies to work and engage with your hips throughout your yoga practice (not just the postures that you might think of with hips!)
- Practical hands on exploration through key yoga postures

We will also begin the morning with an (optional) led ashtanga primary series practice.

Saturday 13th May
📍
11am - 1pm led practice £15
2.30pm - 4.30pm hips workshop £25

What is The Self Practice Space?

In an assisted self practice class you work 121 with a teacher, in the meditative and nourishing environment of a group practice.

It's a supportive, collaborative and creative teaching space in which students have the opportunity to connect with their Yoga practice and body in a deeper way.

Ashtanga Yoga is traditionally taught in this way, the teacher revealing new poses, information and knowledge when the student is ready to receive it. Working together to enhance and deepen the students experience of yoga.

Join us Tuesday/Thursday mornings for Ashtanga Self Practice at the Wellington Centre. For more info, please DM or email: ashtangayogahastings@gmail.com
