Moving Through May: Free-Flow Hips and The Movement Explored
In May, we explored the ‘Free-Flow Hips’ theme, focusing on unlocking hip mobility through dynamic, flowing movements. This reflection shares the sequence’s key poses, the challenge of smooth transitions, and how the practice offers options for all bodies. It’s about breaking free from the seated stiffness many of us experience, building warmth, and creating a versatile routine that fits into busy lives while preparing us for the whole-body journey ahead.

But some movements really stood out, and after the first week, I went back to the drawing board and worked with what was in front of me. I learnt a lot from this one—and I’m looking forward to how it kickstarted a journey and influenced the themes for May and June.
