This mild, slow-paced practice focuses on your hips to cultivate ease and spaciousness in your lower back. You'll gently release and stabilize the entire hip area — back, sides, front, and outer hips — breathing deeply to help create more ease and spaciousness. This is the first class in Annie's three-part series that supports the lower back, offering gentle movement after pain, injury, or tenderness. We suggest consulting with your doctor or physical therapist before practicing if necessary.
