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.

Great class! I have been doing a lot of the beginner classes, but this was a nice transition to an intermediate class; not too difficult, but definitely more work and took more concentration!

Thank you. I have lordosis and I run steps out a lot. This class was wonderfully paced, gently taught but challenging in all the ways necessary to get my hip flexors stretched out. Thanks for the important reminders about engaging the gluts - boy does that make a difference. Thank you for all you do. I have benefited enormously from the classes on this site and told many people about it!

Thank you David! This class was such a wonderful help for my never ending hip tightness. I felt such relief at the end of a long workday doing this class.

This was a great find! I'm a weighlifter so nothing beats yoga to sort out all of my tight spots! And this area is particularly easy to tighten up and for me is very prone to injury if I don't stay on top of my mobility! Thanks!
