Join certified Iyengar Yoga teacher Sean O’Leary for a fun, refreshing, and deeply informative exploration of the hip joint through creative and innovative prop use. Using blocks, straps, chairs, walls, blankets, and more, Sean will guide you through playful yet precise variations of common yoga poses to help you discover what works best for your unique body. In this two-hour workshop, you’ll take a deep dive into hip anatomy and skeletal variation—why some hips can do certain actions and others can’t—and learn how to adapt poses so they remain effective, individualized, and pain-free. You’ll explore the full circumference of the hip joint while developing techniques to stabilize, mobilize, and release tension in the groins, glutes, hamstrings, quads, hip flexors, and the I.T. band. Students will leave with practical tools to support long-term hip health and enhance their yoga practice with confidence and clarity.
