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!

I love all of Rachel's classes! This one is excellent, it left me feeling both energized and relaxed.
Wonderful class and teacher!
a beautiful class with a lovely rythmn to it. Thank you.
Love your classes! I can't for the life of me get my shoulder to dip under my thigh! I'll keep trying because that pose looks so wonderful!
