I love these Elena Cheung videos - would love to see more with her!!
Elena, you are wonderful as always. 💕 But omgahhh, Inky is wearing an avocado sweater! So cute and cozy! 🥰🥑
Oh heeyy Alan
I was looking for hip mobility videos and this was perfect - thank you!
I am really glad that I found this session :) It was very soothing for my nerves (music and a dog ;)), I especially value time in position with block and tipping of the straight leg (soo chilling).
Great twists on regular yoga, like the block to enhance hip flexor stretch. I'm a physical therapist and I never saw that one before. I loved the cartoon additions to remind us to breathe or show what was working. Inky is cool! A refreshing yoga vid. I'm looking forwards to more.
Glad you enjoyed Elizabeth!
Elena.....yay!
Yay!
This was amazing! Thank you so much. Brilliant hip opening and strengthening session. This is the first video of yours that I have worked with and I’m looking forward to trying more! :)
This was absolutely great. I’ve been running and my hips have gotten really tight and out of place on my left side. This is the only hip yoga that has actually done something to help opening up my hips!! Thank you so much
A great way to start my morning! Such a relaxing yoga practice :)
We're happy it got your morning off to a good start!
This was amazing! The balance part was very difficult for me. Hopefully next time it will be easier. Thanks so much for your videos!
Feel free to use a sturdy chair, table, counter, or even simply a wall to help out with the balance until it gets easier! Thank you!
Boy do I need this.
We hope that you'll feel refreshed afterward! 😌
This was taxing for me, because my hips are not really mobile. I liked the poses and variations. I love the inclusion of the dog and didn't find it distracting at all, but I think I'm used to dogs in yoga videos because of "Yoga with Adriene".
Thanks for joining us and for your feedback! It's not unusual to have tight hips. Always go at your own pace.
It'll come with time! Keep it up! It can be challenging to get into but your hips will thank you for it :) Inky says hello!
My squats are pretty terrible. I'm working on my toddler squat to get better flexibility in the hips. Great video. Hi Inky!
wow! you know what youre talking about! i am very grateful to have found your channel!!!
Loved this glad I found it
Great movement. I’d never done the bridge/block, one knee in and slight up and down with opposite leg, could really feel that. Reminds me of KInstretch.
Such an amazing flow! I look forward to a flow for anxiety, digestion, energy, and grounding!
Thanks for the suggestions, Sarah!
This was perfect for my tight flexors. I love that awareness exercise with the bent knee. Do something for quads next - mine are always barking at me.
Thanks for the feedback, Leah and the suggestion! 👍
Thanks!
I loved this session looking for more on hips and mobility we also love Inky 😍
Thank you Tracy! 🥰
Loved this!
🙌😎 Glad you enjoyed it Mark!
Great!
Great exercises! I look forward to improving my mobility. Thanks you very much!
Love everything about this!
Inky is unbelievable cute, but still second cutest in this video. Loved the session, this was so great for my hips and it went at a really reasonable pace. Somehow I came away with my back feeling better as well, so two thumbs up!
The bit towards the end with the block was amazing! Really helped release the tension in my hips
Oh good, Tarryn!
Woof woof
I'm sad that rei doesn't have this show anymore. The vibes are so nice
I'm going to give this a try. I'm big into Jiu-Jitsu and after my motorcycle accident I don't move like I used to. Thank you.
Hey Andrew, thanks for watching! Let us know how it goes!🙂
Thanks for this! Great mobility stuff for tight hips and helpful pointers for awareness. And the smile-inducing doggie is great for both mood and breath work :)
Hey Claire, thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed!😀
Great video! loved the 90-90 movement. Maybe some pigeon next time?
LOVED this flow! (And inky)
🙌
Ok, so I have osteoarthritis in my knees and hips and I've had really bad luck with any kind of stretching exercises aggravating the injury. I know not to bend and twist my hips at the same time as that makes it worse but do you think this would be effective for me without making the hip pain worse? Also, you're lil doggie is so adorable. 4:00 That lil hop back in the dog bed is so cute.
Hey, thanks for the question! If you have any concerns it’s always best to ask your doctor. This hip session is meant to be accessible, and I would always say to move at your own pace and do what feels right for your body.
@@elenac4077 Thank you. I'll give it a try but I will find someone locally to help guide me. Ya the doctors weren't much help. They just want to prescribe prescribe prescribe and the stretching they recommended me put me down for 3 days. Thank you for the advice, I'll let you know how it goes.
Eland, I have a really stiff lower spine, what would you suggest
The flow was a bit fast for me, but the poses were fun!
Thanks for practicing with us!
