This text-based course offers a structured, alignment-focused approach to opening your hips and hamstrings safely. You will learn how to prepare your body step-by-step, using active engagement rather than passive stretching to build lasting flexibility. By following this guided method, you will understand how to assess your own range of motion, use props effectively, and maintain structural integrity in your pelvis and spine as you work toward your peak pose.
