Deskworkers Antidote – Part 1 of 2: Unfreeze Hips, Keep Shoulders Mobile

This session is part of a series of classes to strengthen the legs, align the hips, keep the groin area (the hip flexors) soft, and move the shoulders and upper back – in other words, an antidote to sitting on chairs for long hours. This session focusses on moving the hips  (and the shoulders) in different ways.  We focus on extension at the hips, introducing some isometric work leading towards virabhadrasana 1. Shoulder mobility work is added simultaneously with these positions. 

Level: Experienced Beginners/ Intermediate
