The Moving Joint

Repost from •

SQUATS CONTD • squats are a helpful skill to have at your disposal. If you can relax into your full squat you are:

• Stretching your pelvic floor and back
• Allowing your tail to just ‘hang’
• Improving range in your hips and ankles
• Living in a primal posture that our ancestors occupied in daily life

Here I’m playing with variations of support in my squat. Your heels may be lifted. Place your hands in front for support. Can you then place them behind you? You can also hold onto a couch arm for support. Or grab a doorknob in each hand (with the door ajar). Let your pelvis hang. Breathe.

How often do you squat? Is this part of your movement practice?

Check out our new set-up! We are only allowing 4 persons in class at a time so that we can all keep our distance. We will see you soon! Our class schedule is now live.

We are open and ready for you to join us. What piece of equipment do you miss most?

✧ Back soon! ✧
We can’t wait to get back in the studio very soon!! 🧡 Make sure you’re subscribed to our newsletter (www.themovingjoint.com) so you’ll be notified as soon as we have all the details for our reopening procedures ✨ Until then, see you online!

✧ Get on your feet! ✧
Gaida has been incorporating props into her live classes - but don’t worry if you don’t have them, she’ll give you modifications if not! For this exercise, use a pillow in place of the ball and cans for weights! 🧡

See you on the mat this week! ❂
