TRU Core Class 11: Spinal Extension and Hip Mobility
Join instructor Alicia Gilbert for a dynamic blend of mat and reformer work designed to relieve trap tightness and support a tender lower back. The session focuses on the differential between the pelvis and femur, incorporating deep hip joint work, footwork, and spinal articulation exercises like the shoulder bridge. Students will also explore extension movements, including single leg kicks and rowing preparations, to combat forward head posture and strengthen the upper back. Modifications are provided throughout, making this flow adaptable for home practitioners using a mat, resistance bands, and a stability ball.
