Hip Circles for Prenatal Yoga

A fun way to open up through the hips is some nice hip circles on your hands and knees. So take the blanket because you want the blanket underneath the knees to be a little bit more comfortable. Always be as comfortable as possible. Take your knees on to your blanket. Elbows drop down to the ground, underneath the shoulders and then just move them up an inch or two, comfortable? Bring in the hands together. Now what she is going to be doing is hip circles. She is going to be working with the breath of course. She is going to be taking her hips very slowly in a clock like movement. Here we go. We are going to go first three, six, nine, and twelve. Take a nice deep inhale, exhale your hips to three, six, inhale, nine and twelve. Exhaling three and six beautiful. Inhale nine and twelve. Stop and let's go in the other direction. Take a deep inhale. Exhale to nine and six, notice her back doesn't move. Inhale to three and twelve. Exhale nine and six. Inhaling three and twelve. Lower it very gently into Child Pose.
