Lesson 3 of 3: Essential Hips
You've made it to the final day of Summer School! 🎓
And for making it to the final lesson, we've made it a little longer as there is so much good stuff to explore when it comes to "true" hip extension and how we can see it in different poses.
Today's lesson explores hip extension, a movement we use in everything from Warrior III to lunges and countless transitions in between.
One of the most common teaching challenges is knowing whether a movement is actually coming from the hip...or whether the pelvis and lower back are doing most of the work instead.
Are you ready to explore simple ways to better understand hip extension? And how a few thoughtful cueing changes can help students move from their hips with more clarity, support, and confidence?

Can you tell the difference between movement coming from your hip versus movement coming from your pelvis or lower back?
