The groins are an often overlooked part in terms of their involvement in asanas.
They are, in fact, one of the ‘control centres for all forward extensions. Tightness in the groins not only restricts many actions in asanas, it also sets us up for potential injuries.
In this session, we try to sensitise ourselves to the groin movements.
Note:
People with knee injuries are advised caution in some of the positions.
