This class targets the hips flexors, a common problem area for many, including runners, athletes, people with desk jobs and those with hyperlordosis. David guides you through a class that builds gradually toward a final series of deep openers for the quads and psoas muscles, starting and finishing with a guided relaxation.

This can either be done as a stand-alone class or as Day 15 of the Daily Dose 30-Day Intermediate Yoga Challenge.

Excellent pre- or post-Olympic weightlifting. Mobility is so key for us to move weight quickly and efficiently. I'm always searching out the best movement practice for my hips. This is quite good within straining my ankles or knees much, especially if I'm using the pad as added support/height.

I'm a snowboarder and just finished a big day riding on the hill. This was a great class to stretch my hip flexors which get a solid workout while snowboarding. I like that there was a bit of shoulder stretching as well since those get stressed while riding too sometimes. I'll be doing this one again, thanks!

I haven't done yoga for a while and chose this tutorial to get back into it, as it was quite short. It was very challenging in parts and I'll be doing it again to see how my flexibility is improving. Already feeling looser.
