In our Bowspring practice we try to keep a bow, or curve, in the lower back. We first fill up the ribcage, including the upper back, then we move our hips back creating more of lumbar curve, a "happy tail." Finally we take our head back, creating a neck curve.
We use the muscles in the back of our legs and hips to help create this happy tail. We move the hips back as we take the knees forward, widen the sitz bones as we press the knees toward each other, and finally we mound the glutes up and in as we press the knees apart.
🐕 We'll practice keeping our happy tails this week. Join us! 🐩
