The Fundamentals of Standing Poses
In this hatha yoga class with Rachel, we will explore the key actions necessary to practice standing postures safely and effectively. We will explore the actions of the hips in foundational poses such as warrior II so that you can learn to do these poses optimally for your own body. Note: We recommend using a block for this practice.
This can either be done as a stand-alone class or as Day 3 of Grounding and Strength 14-Day Beginner Yoga Challenge.

Thank you! Wonderful instructions. I was finally able to go a little deeper into Warrior 2; I had no idea my hips/pelvis were so out of alignment. I will use these tips going forward. My body feels great right now!
Love your class and teaching Rachel, very helpful to go back to the basics.
Rachel's instructions are clear. I finished the class feeling energized and better equipped to make the most out of each pose. I learned a little tweak or change of position can make a world of difference.
