Kneeling warrior 1

Kneeling warrior 1

This short yoga video explains and demonstrates a kneeling version of Warrior 1 for optimal hip and pelvic alignment to allow for stretching into the iliacus muscle. Can you find the same sensation in your standing Warrior 1? The iliacus muscle combines with the psoas major muscle to form iliopsoas, the strongest hip flexor. In many instances when people experience tight hips and hip flexors, it will be the iliacus which in fact will be the tighter one but it is also the harder one to access due to its location. http://www.yogasidsel.com/   / yogasidsel      / yogasidsel     / yogasidsel_supersids
