Hip Flexor Psoas Yoga - Vinyasa to Stretch & Strengthen Hip Flexors {25 min}

❤ Donations are appreciated and help support my work! Thank you! ❤

Hi yogis, this week we're focusing on hip flexors! If you spend many hours sitting at a desk or do a lot of running, chances are you have tight hip flexors. In this class we will focus not only on stretching the hip flexors but also strengthening them. Just because a muscle is tight does not mean it is strong!

I can personally say that having tight hip flexors negatively affected my posture for years and out of all the yoga poses, lunges are my favorite. On days where I am busy or can't motivate myself to get on my mat and practice yoga, I still do a few lunges. If you suffer from low back pain I encourage you to do these types of movements regularly and see how you feel. The hip flexors are a huge part of your core which most people don't realize!

You can expect to do a lot of lunges, side bends, half moon pose, warrior 2, lizard, supported bridge and dancer's pose in this class. It's an intermediate sequence so students should be familiar with Vinyasa's and flows.

Enjoy :)
