- Improves daily functional ability like walking, running. Also enhances
performance in a variety of sports.

- Hips are linked to the lower back. so tightness in our hips/ pelvis lead to
stiffness and pain in the lower back. Tight hips put extra load on the
lower back asking for extra effort from the spine, causing back pain, Hip
opening will alleviate that.
-The mobility and openness of our hips are linked to all forward
bends. When our hips are tight, chances are that you will find
forward bending very challenging. Hip opening improves and brings
ease in our forward bends.
A word of caution: Try not to push too much. Be gentle with yourself.
Use your breath. Allow it to move through the poses.
