Mobility for Tight Hips! (follow along)

Healthy hips need movement in all directions 💪✨ 👇 Follow along with me with this gentle hip mobility flow as we explore internal rotation, external rotation, flexion, and hip opening while building mobility, control, and stability. 👀 Moving the hips through a variety of ranges helps maintain joint health, supports balanced strength around the hip, and improves the way your hips move and function in everyday life. Move slowly, stay present, and focus on quality over depth. ⚠️Stop if you have pain. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting any exercise program. ✨ 90/90 Hip Flow: Begin seated with both knees bent in a 90/90 position and the spine tall. Slowly rotate the knees from side to side, moving smoothly through the hips while keeping the chest lifted. Move with control and avoid collapsing through the torso as you transition between sides. Option to perform one side at a time. ✨ Seated Hip Openers: Start seated with one leg extended and the opposite knee bent out to the side. Keeping the spine tall, slowly open and close the bent knee through a comfortable range of motion. Move with control and allow the movement to come from the hip joint. ✨ Seated Leg Lifts: Start in staff pose with both legs extended and the spine upright. Engage the core as you lift one leg and sweep it up and out to the side, then return to center with control. Alternate sides in a slow, steady rhythm. ✨ Dynamic Frog to Leg Lift: Start in a frog position with the knees wide and hips in line. Slowly rock forward and back. As you shift forward, lift one shin slightly off the floor, then lower with control and switch sides on the next repetition. Keep the hips low and the movement smooth and controlled. ✨ Figure 4 Hip Shifts: Sit with your hands behind you and cross one ankle over the opposite knee. Gently shift the hips from side to side while staying tall through the spine. Move slowly and explore the movement without forcing range. 🌀 Supine Hip Circles: Lie on your back with both knees bent and feet lifted off the floor. Keeping the knees together, slowly circle both knees in one direction, allowing the movement to come from the hips. Reverse the direction and continue with smooth, controlled movement. 🌀 Supine Rocking: Lie on your back and gently draw both knees toward your chest. Holding the legs comfortably, slowly rock back and forth along the spine with a smooth, controlled motion. Keep the movement gentle and relaxed. 🎵 Breathe Relax Feel Now on Spotify. ​⁠ ​⁠​⁠ 🎧 https://open.spotify.com/artist/1d1X9... ⸻ #SomaticYoga #HipMobility #MindfulMovement #GentleYoga #RelaxingYoga #MobilityFlow #yogaflow #yogagirl #flexibility #yoga #stretching #fitness #yogainspiration
