Experience a deep release and restoration in this Yin Yoga class dedicated to opening the hips and lower back. Using poses like reclined Deer Pose and Frog Pose, we’ll gently target the hips, inner thighs, and quadriceps, while compressing the lower back to bring about therapeutic benefits – especially helpful for those who spend a lot of time sitting or 'hanging' in the lower back during the day.

Opening the hip flexors helps regain the natural tilt of the pelvis, improves hip mobility, and supports a healthier lower back. As you relax into each posture, you'll create space for the body to unwind, release tension, and feel more at ease. As always, José provides various options for each pose, enabling you to adapt them to your abilities and enjoy their full benefits. We will close the class with a calming Savasana or a grounding seated meditation, leaving you feeling open, connected, and deeply restored.

Props: a bolster, belt and a blanket.

Quick question, are there ways to work up to reclined deer pose? I had to give up on the class as even when almost sitting up, I can't do reclined deer pose without the top of my foot hurting from pressing against the floor. I feel I might benefit from this as my quads are probably pretty tight, but in all the years of doing yoga I've never been able to do this pose and similar ones, like saddle pose.

Thank you very much, José, that's very helpful :-)

Thanks for your question Elisabeth! There are 2 more ways to go about it. 1: place a rolled up blanket - not too thick- under the joint of the ankle so your foot is not so much extended. This way your instep might press less into the floor. 2: Or place a folded blanket under the top of the foot. 3: you don't need to go back further if you feel your quads being stretched. But if you don't feel the quads but you only feel the pain in your top foot then adjustments 1 or 2 can be helpfull. 4: flip the pose around, ly on your belly and grab one foot to stretch the quads. Use props under the chest and/or upper thigh to create more extension of the leg and torso to get more stretch. I hope these suggestions help, if not please let me know.
