Full Hatha Yoga Class
I learned recently from one of my students that if physical therapy clients were given 5 or more exercises by their physical therapists there is no chance they will do them. However if physical therapists give their clients 4 exercises, not only will they do them, but they are much more likely to do them multiple times a day.
This sparked an idea in me to prepare classes that were only 4 poses in length and see what they did not only in my motivation to prepare them as a teacher (it went through the roof by the way) and also your motivation to practice them as my students. I’m looking forward to seeing the results.
Here are 4 yoga poses for tight hips sequenced in a full hatha yoga class.
Keyhole Stretch
Pigeon Pose
Lunge Pose
Cow’s Face Pose
