    Yoga Upload with Maris Aylward - This is a hip opening yoga sequence for both intermediate and beginner students. There are many benefits from this practice, especially if you have been feeling some tightness or tension in the hip area or if you have been sitting for long periods of time. We "open the hips" by focusing on our lower body - stretching the hip flexors, quadriceps, inner and outer thighs, hamstrings, glutes, lower back, IT band, and more. There are also twists, mild backbends, and other poses to balance the practice. This yoga class can be used as a post-workout stretch routine as well.
    We do mostly floor and seated poses (no standing sequence except for forward fold). The pace is slow and allows you to breathe and settle into the poses. Focus on truly being in the body and feeling the subtle energy and sensations in the postures.
    If your knees are sensitive, make sure you have a towel or blanket to cushion the knees. Also, yoga props such as a block or blanket may be useful in some poses if you choose to use them. Modifications are offered for some of the poses so you can work at the intensity that is safe for you. A small screen will appear on the right to show you alternatives for the pose or how to use the props.
    The class is approximately 40 minutes, with a few minutes of Savasana music included at the end to help you relax. If you prefer my Guided 6-Minute Savasana video, click below:

    It's all in the hips! Try this sequence where we linger in poses designed to stretch the lower body. Let me know about your experience here in the comments section. Thanks everyone! :) - Maris

      +Yoga Upload hip opening is just the best! Don't you think, you switch between standing and lying postures a lot? Check out my channel if you want anyway!

      +Hie Kim Yoga Hi there! Do you mean we should switch between standing and lying postures a lot? Or that I do that a lot in this video? This hip opening class is mostly floor poses with almost no standing poses. Sorry if I misunderstood your comment. Thanks for checking out the channel. :)

    I do a 20-30 minute practice after my at home HIIT workouts but when I saw this was a hip opening one I found the 40 minutes and glad I did. My hips feel much more open and less tight now. Thanks Maris. I will return to this one.

    Another morning lockdown group session for the WholeHealth team-one of them had requested a hip flexibility practice, and this was perfect. We noticed a difference from doing regular practice, and will come back to this one to see if there is any further improvement! Time well spent at the start of the day-thank you. Namaste!

    This was even more relaxing than I had anticipated! Is it because we store so much tension in the hips? I'm going to try to do this kind of restorative yoga at least once a week. Namaste, Maris!

    • @YogaUpload
      @YogaUpload  8 лет назад

      Namaste! I've heard from a lot of yoga teachers that we do store tension and emotions in the hips but I haven't really studied that topic in depth. I'm glad you found it relaxing. :)

    • @YogaUpload
      @YogaUpload  7 лет назад

      Thanks! Are you subscribed to the channel? It's free to do so. Also, make sure you turn on the notifications so you don't miss it when I post videos. I have over a hundred videos so all the classes are organized into playlists and sections on the main channel page - ruclips.net/user/yogaupload - so you can easily find what you are looking for. You can also create your own playlists of RUclips videos that you like or save them to the "Watch Later" (below a video on the left there is a plus sign that says "Add to"). Hope that helps.
