Hip Opening: External Rotation and Your Arches

Instructor:
Breena Maggio
Description:
Are you a rib thruster? If you are (or used to be) you might have a fair amount of tension around the lower end of the thoracic spine (T12 area)/upper part of the lumbar spine. So, while you are working on “dropping the ribs” they might still need some “ramping”, and that tension may be getting in the way. This class is mostly easing of that area to improve mobility and the natural “ramping” of the ribcage.
