This sequence focuses on our center of gravity, which lies in our pelvis. Increasing the awareness, connectivity, strength and range of motion available to us in our hips and pelvis will improve our everyday movement. The theme here is creating balanced access to all the possible movements in and around our lower center. This sequence is great for targeting hips, thighs and your lower back in terms of mobility and stability. Note - Not recommended if you have Osteoporosis or Osteoarthritis. Also not recommended if you are pregnant.

Hello Anne!
Thank you for writing about this very common experience in side lying work. There is a large bony protuberance (the Greater Trochanter) that can be aggravated and cause discomfort due to the positioning - it is rubbing into the often sensitive IT (Iliotibial) band. I recommend placing a thin folded blanket under the side of you pelvis to provide cushioning. Let me know if that helps!
Warm regards,
Anita

I really liked this class, but when I was doing the side laying down leg lifts my hip bone keeps digging into the floor and hurting me.. I feel like I am not doing this right but couldn't find a position where it was working... help?

Started off a bit slow, but turned into a great workout. The stretching at the end seems a little rushed however.
