Bow Pose: Hip Flexor Release

This class is part two in a 4-part series taking you to bow pose (dhanurasana). Moving on from what you learned in Bow Pose: Core Strength, Rachel alternates between a brisk hatha flow and a series of deep, long holds, warming the body up so you can release the hip flexors and the front of the pelvis, ultimately making it easier for your pelvis to tilt back and your body to move into a backbend. This class also has a peak pose, dancers (natarajasana) and will prepare you for the next classes in this series: Bow Pose: Open the Shoulders, and Bow Pose: Ready for the Peak!

Thank you Rachel. I haven't done this class for quite some time and found it to be an oldie but a goodie! So many delicious and helpful directions in all the many details you provided. So enjoyable.

Love this class! I work on my balance and flexibility! Thank you Rachel!
I've been experiencing some slight pain in my right hip, at times it travels down to my thigh & knee. I had stopped practicing due to more hours at work and fatigue. I thought this practice was wonderful - thank you for making these videos available to me (us). Namaste & much gratitude.🙏🏻
Rachel is awesome. I needed her to push me today.
