Wednesday hips don't lie

Ruth this was so amazing. I have been driving and gardening a lot and my hips and legs are so tight. Thanks for this. I hope to join your other classes too.

This class made me realize how my hips are weaker than I think and that I use other muscles when I should be using my glutes, also that there is quite a big difference between right and left. Will be coming back to this one to try and strengthen and balance them out. Thank you Ruth!

thank you, that feels so good in my lower spine

Thanks so much, Ruth, for these excellent classes. I have been doing your earlier series regularly, so it’s great to have so many new exercises to try. Your cheerful smile and geranium pink tights are also lovely to help me get moving on these dark, rainy, West Coast winter days! Namaste … 🧘‍♀️🌲💕

Very much enjoyed revisiting this thank you

Getting to the parts never visited thanks. Occasionally couldn't see from video where one leg in relation to other leg should be as a bit 2D on video view.

Dear Ruth, thank you for this extremely beneficial class! I've been struggling with my right hip joint for yers, physio, diagnosed with ostheo-arthritis, and trying to do lots of hip-focused yoga sessions. Your emphasis in this class on strengthening the neighbouring areas using micro-movements proved immediately effective! I want to keep repeating this class as often as possible. Thank you!

What a great and warming class Ruth! Thank you. I've been shying away from strength-work as I feel weak these days, and this class was JUST what I needed to feel empowered and 'sticking with it'. YAY!

Thank you, Ruth, for this great series. I find your guidance very helpful. I had one question - around minute 25:00 when you're on your belly with knees bent and feet touching, I find it very difficult to lift off at all. I've noticed this in other exercises like this (ex. the boat in yoga). Would you be able to tell me which muscle group might need some strengthening? Thank you.

Another super class! Thank you Ruth!

Thank you Ruth, I love your classes. They are so helpful for my spine and hips.

Thank you very much Ruth for this very helpful series! Would this class be suitable with sacro-iliac joint pain as well. I felt some clicking there but no pain so was wondering if I could do any harm. Thanks again!

Thank you Ruth for your clear guidance and enthusiastic encouragement. I love these classes and can feel the difference they make.

These strengthening classes are superb, Ruth, as are all your classes- fun, clear and work so well alongside my yoga practice. I go back regularly to your back health series, it has made such a difference. Big thanks 💙

Thank you so much Ruth! What you said about strengthening rather than just stretching was gold. My back pain really started to dissolve once I discovered your classes a while back (and some other back strengthening yoga ones) rather than carrying on endlessly just stretching and wondering why nothing improved. Great class! Deb :-)

Hi Ruth...decided to work on my ageing hips in particular the left one with osteoarthritis. The class was indeed very good. Sequence around minute 27 was challenging for my left hip (as I have lost range of movement). I did not use a prop under my left buttock and wonder if I should have. I seem to lean quite a lot to the right. Lifting the knee and foot was not too bad. I welcome your thoughts as to how best to strengthen the areas around these joints. Thank you for this very inspiring classes. Teresa x

Amazing movements, precise and effective. And always love the stretchy bits in between. Thank you Ruth ❤️

Really enjoying a little dip into Pilates… thank you

Hi. I’ve been following your classes for a while now and it’s been a genuine help to managing the back niggles. The mermaid looking posture and raising the leg though was a new one, and instant cramp for me. But just raising the knee is easy🤔 Do you have any suggestions for something interim that will help me progress to the slightly bigger movement? Thank you

Thank you Ruth I love working with you on my Pilates journey x

Thank you Ruth - another super duper class for my hips and lower back! Just love keeping up the daily practice with you xx

that last exercise: "just bring one leg up..." bahahahahahhahahaha gravity is a thing, ma'am. Great class, I can look forward to the ache tonight...

Dank je wel voor deze zalige les! Heb nogal last van n de heupen maar deze oefeningen voelen echt heel goed en verstevigende
