When you plan to go for a hike, particularly the kind that involves uneven surfaces and some elevation, you want to make sure that your ankles, knees, and hips are prepared for the challenge. In this short practice, we will warm up your calves and shins, awaken your thighs, and activate your glutes and outer hips so that they can handle going uphill, downhill, and sidestepping for extended periods of time.
Do you feel stable? Do you move with grace and ease? Do you feel lightness in your body? How well do you handle change? According to the yoga tradition, the answers to those questions define our health and wellness.
