How to do it
Keeping your torso upright and spine straight, gently rotate your hips in a smooth circle, as if tracing the inside of a barrel — 10 one way, 10 the other.
Keep in mind
Move from the pelvis and hips, keeping your upper back perfectly still.
Every move: lightly lift your pelvic floor — a gentle lift, never a clench — and breathe slow and full (hold the stretches for about 5 easy breaths, at least 30 seconds). New to the lift? →
