This class is all about the psoas (ya know, that tight muscle in the front of your hips). We'll slow down + create some space in the body while releasing tension that causes tightness and pain. Deepening our breath, we'll create a calming energy throughout the body + mind.
Props: 3 thick pillows or a bolster / couch cushion + a pillow
(it seems like a lot, but trust us, it's worth it!)
