SQUATS CONTD • squats are a helpful skill to have at your disposal. If you can relax into your full squat you are:
• Stretching your pelvic floor and back
• Allowing your tail to just ‘hang’
• Improving range in your hips and ankles
• Living in a primal posture that our ancestors occupied in daily life
Here I’m playing with variations of support in my squat. Your heels may be lifted. Place your hands in front for support. Can you then place them behind you? You can also hold onto a couch arm for support. Or grab a doorknob in each hand (with the door ajar). Let your pelvis hang. Breathe.
How often do you squat? Is this part of your movement practice?
