Pelvic alignment in yoga
The thing is… although our bodies are intelligent they also do what is easiest. If we have tight hips, glutes and hamstrings or our IT (iliotibial) band is tight or perhaps weak we will probably compensate. Joints that moves easily and are very mobile will also compensate for those restricted joints and muscles. On top of that our ego wants our “poses” to look deep and advanced.
One place we often neglect to stabilise is our pelvis
We can swing our pelvis around but the surrounding muscles like the IT band, glutes, hip flexors, hamstrings, adductors are often weak and tight. So we compensate.
On top of that many of us have over time started to create “bad habits” and our pelvis has been misaligned.
Let’s create space and stability
In this video, I talk about how we can explore our pelvic alignment again and how you can use this simple technique in your daily routine to stabilise your pelvis and create better structure in your yoga practice too.
