Hip Opener

Set up laying on your back, legs in tabletop, arms by the sides. Inhale: Open one leg out to the side Exhale: Squeeze leg back to center. Alternate legs. The abdominals are stabilizing the hips and integrated into the movement of the legs. Keep hips and low back stable so the leg can move within the hip socket. Shoulders stay relaxed. For tactile feedback, place your hands on your knee that is not opening to feel if it is staying stable.
