Sorry about the messed up audio. I had no idea it was sounding like this until I watched the recording. I’ll be sure to double-check my audio settings next time!

Hope you enjoyed this practice! Did you go prop-free, or did you use blocks and cushions?

Tadpole stretches the groin. It's indeed a mild or non-stretch for some people. If you're wanting to feel more, you can always open your feet out into frog.

I just posted this new 35 min Deep Tissue Yoga practice – a yin class to release lower body tension and improve hip mobility. If you’re curious whether yoga can feel as satisfying as massage, give it a try and let me know what you think. 💙

Hi Jaana! What a great pic of you in nature ❤️

OMG Tumbling Tortoise 🤣🤣🤣! I’m glad you got past that phase and have begun to enjoy it!

Here's a version of goddess with a twisty shoulder move...

I love this! ❤️

Great question! Some of my airport favorites are half moon, chest stretch w/clasped hands behind back, standing neck rolls, goddess, squat, standing forward bend, standing wide leg fwd bend… curious to hear what others like to do!

Hi Jayden — thanks for sharing. Since these poses were previously pain-free, it’s possible something shifted recently (like tightness, irritation, or a subtle tweak in the hip or low back) that’s now affecting knee tracking. The knee often takes the hit when the hip isn’t moving freely. Try skipping pigeon and child’s pose for a bit, and explore gentler hip openers like reclined figure four. Props can also help reduce strain. If it persists, a PT can help assess what’s going on. Wishing you ease and healing.
