This class is meant to be a part of a series that you can see in our program Establish Your Core Stability and Strength and on our Yoga for Beginners page. In this class, part 2 of our core strength series, David shows you how to keep the core engaged while moving your arms and legs and stretching some of the key groups of muscles around the pelvis that can limit mobility, such as the hamstrings, hips flexors (psoas and quadriceps), hips and lower back.

Thank you David. I have pain in my hip area, and weakens in my back so holding the block between my thighs and raise the legs was not joyful for me. also I have big challenge with balance so having the chair in some poses was very helpful.
I highly appreciate what you present to us and consider myself so fortunate to find your website. thank you so much.

David, those seated streches were delicious! I always wake up with stiff sides and lower back. This whole class has me starting the day feeling great. Thank you so much

I, too, find a chair or even a stool to be a risky proposition as they do slip and slide around. I wonder if you could be pursuaded to offer an alternative for older ladies like me who find it difficult to balance with props?

Thanks for the feedback. Do you mean that you are slipping on the seat of the chair? Would it work if you place something on the chair or wear something that doesn't slide?
