This month's focus:

Glutes! Glutes! Glutes!

This practice will be all about functional strength training for the gluteus maximus, medius, and glute minimus.

Glute Max is a powerhouse!

• It generates the force to walk, run, jump, squat and so much more.

• It's a posture muscle that enables sitting and standing

• It's a load distributor dispersing load and movement from the upper body, through the pelvis to the lower body.

Glute Medius is a primary stabilizer!

• It holds the energy of the body in the midline

• Think of it as your river banks

• It externally and internally rotates the hips

Glute Minimus is a movement facilitator!

• It helps extend the hips (think the back leg/hip in High Lunge)

• It helps rotate the legs and hips inward (think of dropping both knees to one side: 1 hip/leg is internally rotated, 1 hip/leg is externally rotated)

Want to reduce back pain and shoulder tension? Work the glute max.

As a bonus, since the knees are like gates for the lower extremity, to improve their function and reduce pain? Work the glute max + glute medius.

Any other questions? The answer is "work the glutes!"

*surprise!! we did some of this in the Bees Knees Yoga Lab in March!

Strong, responsive glutes will help you find comfort and

ease in just about every movement you do.

*You will receive the recording so you can repeat your experience at any time, or in case something comes up, and you have to miss the live session.

**you will also receive a PDF of the practice
