Welcome to this short but potent practice that will bring you to fly to create spaciousness in the inner groin and thigh area.
We'll explore different shapes,
Including compass poles in a seated position,
As well as bird of paradise.
So in this practice,
It will be possible for you to come into a half or full bind,
But please choose the option that works for you,
That is accessible for you.
So we're going to begin in a comfortable seated position.
We'll take three deep breaths here.
Exhaling through your nose,
Inhaling growing up to the back of your head with your spine.
Let's try that.
Deep breath in.
Long breath out,
Relaxing the shoulders down,
Sending the breath down to the space of your inner groin.
Your inner hips.
And then inhale,
Visualizing those spaces growing more.
Open.
Let's try that two more times.
Exhale to release and soften that area.
And then inhale growing that area up.
One last time,
Exhale,
Send the breath to your inner groin and thigh.
And inhale,
Roll the back of your head up to the sky.
Now very slowly and gently,
If your eyes are closed,
Let them blink open.
Or let your hands come to the outer knees.
Keeping the connection with your outer knees,
We'll come into a couple rounds of Sufi rolls.
About 10 of these rolls in each direction.
Feel free to add some movements in your wrists,
Your shoulders,
Your spine.
And when you come to the end of that 10th round,
Let's reverse the direction.
Same movement in an opposite direction.
I like to breathe out to fall forward and breathe in to rise up.
See if that feels good for you.
When you come to the end of that last round,
Give your shoulders a little shake,
A little wiggle.
Now we'll come into a few rounds of seated cat cow.
As you breathe in,
Roll the shoulder blades back,
Lift your chest,
Shine your heart to the sky.
As you breathe out,
Round the spine and hollow in.
Let's try two more of these.
And very last one following your own rhythm,
Your own pace.
Great.
Now slowly and gently,
We're going to bring your feet together in a baddha konasana position.
Start by flapping your wings.
We'll flap them for the next 10.
9.
Seven.
Bye.
Fall.
Three.
To.
.
.
One.
Good.
Now from here,
Press down through the fingertips.
Let them connect with either your legs or the ground.
Breathe in to find a length.
And then breathe out.
We'll gently begin to fold.
We won't stay here for long.
Just about five breaths.
Every breath in,
See if you can create some spaciousness and length through the sides of your waist.
Every breath out,
Find a little give,
A little softness.
Now slowly and gently,
With your next breath in,
Rise through your spine.
From here,
We're going to step your left foot out.
So we come into a half.
Malasana-like position with one foot and the other foot is in a cross-legged position.
Let your left hand or the outer left arm press against the inside of the left thigh.
If your left fingertips can connect with the ground,
Let them connect with the ground.
If not,
You can let them touch onto a block or some form of support.
Let the two magnetize and connect with each other.
Connecting with the earth,
Lengthen your spine and see if you can let your heart and your right hand shine all the way up to the sky.
We'll stay here breathing in and out,
Looking up to the sky for the next.
Three,
Two.
One.
Now the option is to stay here or you might bend your right elbow and let it wrap behind you.
Keep rolling your shoulder blades back,
Finding lift and openness through the heart.
You might stay with your left palm and left fingertips on the ground,
Or you might let them loop underneath your leg.
And bend the left elbow to come into either a half or full bind,
Whatever is accessible for you today.
Once you find that bind,
Find extra lift through the spine.
And we'll stay here breathing in and out for the next three.
To One.
Now,
Keeping this lift,
You might stay here.
You might also lean slightly towards your right bum.
And you find that your left foot can gently begin to lift off,
Maybe just slightly,
Even with the half bind.
Maybe you stay here.
Maybe you start to lengthen and lift that leg up.
Or stay here,
Breathing in and out for three.
To One.
Good.
Now slowly and gently release that foot down.
Slide that leg long.
And we'll point the toes,
Then flex the ankle and really activate all five of your toes.
Let your left palm once again connect with the earth.
And as you breathe in,
Shine your right palm up to the sky,
Your right lungs,
Your right ribs,
Reach up.
And as you breathe out,
See if you can create some spaciousness through the side of the body.
And you'll find that perhaps you want to round in,
See if you can keep reaching up and beyond.
So it's really a side stretch here to create spaciousness through the right lung,
Right armpit,
Intercostal muscles,
And underneath your left leg.
Staying here for three.
To.
One.
Great.
Breathe in.
Rise up.
Point the left toes.
Press down through your right palm behind you.
And then see if you can find the lift as you shine your hips up.
Lengthen your left fingertips up to the sky for three.
To One,
Breathing out release.
Begin to flow between these.
We'll reach towards your extended leg,
Right arm comes to the side.
And then breath in,
Rise up.
Push through the right palm,
Lift the hips up.
And then softly release.
Let's try this one more time.
Left arm on the inside of the left thigh,
Right side of the waist long and spatial.
And rise up with your breath.
Plant the right palms down.
Shine your heart up to the sky in your back bend.
And then exhale and slowly release.
Great.
Now we'll cross both feet,
Coming back into the butterfly position.
Just take a moment to flap out any differences.
And now we'll balance out the other side.
From here,
Lengthening your right foot onto the ground and your left foot is in a cross-legged position.
Take a moment to find this position that feels stable for you.
And then you can bring your right arm on the inside of your right thigh.
Feel them connect and attract each other,
Resist each other.
Let your right fingertips connect with the earth.
Pressing down,
Feeling that connection and anchoring through the earth.
Inhale,
Lift your heart,
Shine your chest and your fingertips up to the sky.
Keep looking beyond your left shoulder,
Your left fingers.
For five.
All.
Three two.
One.
Again,
On this side,
The option is to stay here or you might bend your left elbow and let it rest behind you.
Find lift with the spine,
Length with your inhale.
Exhale soften and see if you can let your right palm thread underneath your right leg.
Maybe just halfway or maybe you can bend the elbow and find that connection with your left fingertips and adjust the position of your foot so you find that stability.
Left bum to find that the right foot can lift off slightly.
Once you find that,
Anchor through your left sit bones and lengthen through your spine,
Then reach your right leg away from you for three.
Two.
One.
And slowly release.
Let that go.
Great.
Now we'll slide your right leg out through the side.
Let your right fingertips come on the inside of your right thigh,
Calf.
Or ankle and then sweep your left hand up.
And off through this side.
Keep rolling your chest upwards towards the sky.
Feel the whole lateral flexion,
The side stretch from the left waist towards the left armpit and the left palm for three.
To One.
With the next breath in,
Rise with your breath.
Let the left palm come behind you.
We'll point the right toes now.
As you press down through the back palm,
Breathe in to find lift.
Rise onto the right toes,
Left knee and left palm.
Shine your heart up to the sky.
Three.
Two.
One,
Exhale,
Release.
And now we'll move between the two,
Reaching to the side,
Coming into the side stretch.
Let your breath in bring you up.
And then breath out,
Shine your heart back up.
And slowly release.
Let's try this one more time following your own rhythm,
Your own breath.
A whole side stretch.
Feel the length underneath your right leg.
And then feel the heart opening as you point your right toes.
Shine your heart up to the sky.
Then when you're ready to release,
Let everything come back down.
Good.
Now slowly and gently,
We're going to bring the feet.
Slightly wider than hip distance apart and see if you can bring the outer corners of your arms against the insides of the thighs.
And you might let the palms touch if that is accessible for you,
Or you might hold on to your forearms,
Whatever feels good.
And we're going to activate,
Keep resisting.
The outsides of your arms against the insides of the thighs and find length through the spine here.
Breathing in and out for the next five.
Ball.
Three.
Two One.
Great.
Now slowly and gently release.
Bring the feet together.
You can give yourself a big hug and rock side to side if that feels good for you.
And then very slowly and gently,
We're going to rise to stand to come for the next part of today's session.
For the next part of the class,
It might be helpful to prepare the yoga mat horizontally so we explore left and right rather than front and back.
And this part of the class will be mandala style where we start on one side,
We finish off on the other,
We start on the other side and we finish off where we began.
So let's start with your feet about hip distance apart.
Exhale to relax the shoulders down.
Connect with the earth.
Inhale,
Lengthen the back of your head.
The whole of your spine,
Your heart connecting with the heavens.
With the next breath in let your hands sweep up Maybe coming into a slight backbend.
And then as you breathe out,
Folding forward,
Coming as low as it feels good for you.
With the next breath in,
Lengthen the spine forward,
Halfway lift.
As you exhale,
Step your right foot back.
Let the right knee drop down.
Anjaneyasana,
Low lunge position.
Breathing in,
Sweep the arms up towards the sky.
Inhaling,
Finding lift through the spine.
Exhaling finding softness in the pelvis and the shoulders.
Staying here for five.
For three,
To One.
Now slowly and gently let the palms come down to the ground.
We'll shift the hips slightly back as you tuck the back toes under for extra support if that feels good for you.
And slide the front heel away from you coming into half splits.
Breathing in,
Finding lift through the spine.
Breathing out,
Finding surrender and softness as you bow to the earth.
For five.
Ball.
Three.
To One.
Slowly with your next breath in,
Coming back briefly into a low lunge position.
Then place your left hand on the inside of the left thigh and your right hand right underneath your shoulder.
You might step your left foot out slightly.
To the edge or even outside of your yoga mat as you come into a variation of a lizard lunge position.
From here,
We'll tuck the back toes under and lift the back knee off the ground.
If you would like to,
You can stay in the stationary lizard or you can join me as we pulse backwards.
Lengthening both legs,
Shifting both hips back and then lunging forwards as you reach the front knee and back heel away from you.
If you're pulsing we'll do this two more times.
And when you come to the end of that very last round,
You're welcome to stay.
You're welcome to come into a lower lizard,
Maybe with the forearms down onto the ground.
Staying here for five.
Four,
Three,
Two.
One.
Good.
Now slowly let the back knee drop down.
Let the hands come back onto the ground,
Connecting you with the earth.
Let the back foot turn towards your bum.
So that you turn towards the camera and walk your hands between your legs so they come closer towards your right thigh and see if you can sit as if you're in a child's pose position on your right leg and your left foot instead is in almost like a malasana squat-like position.
So we return to the same groin opening movement in a slightly different orientation.
Let the left palm anchor down to the earth,
Connecting left outer arm with the inner thigh and then reach your right hand up to the sky.
Let's stay here breathing in and out for three.
Two.
One.
Option to stay here.
Option to bend the right elbow and reach it behind you.
Find lift first.
And then breathe out,
Maybe soften and thread your left arm underneath you.

Shine your heart.
Stay for three.
Two.

Good.
Let's slowly release from here.
Breathe in.
Rise up.
Breathe out,
Release.
Breath in.
Imagine you gather this breath into your heart and breathe out and release.
One last time,
Breath in.
And breath out.
And now this time,
Instead of turning towards your left,
We turn towards what was the back of your yoga mat,
Towards the right side this time.
Step back into plank,
Briefly.
Come into downward facing dog.
And from here,
Gently and slowly cycle through your downward facing dog into chaturanga position or half push-up or knees,
Chest,
Chin.
Back into cobra or up dog downward facing dog.
And then we'll stay for five breaths here,
Breathing in and out,
Finding that spaciousness through the spine.
Finger pads connected with the earth,

Tailbone reaching up to the sky.
One more breath.
Slowly looking forward towards your palms.
Softly begin to step forward or jump forward.
Exhale to fold.

Lengthen the spine.
Breathing out,
Folding forward as you step your left foot back this time.

Every inhale gives you a bit of lift.
Every exhale gives you some softness in the groin,
In the shoulders and the heart.
Staying here for five.
Ball.
Three,
To.
One.
With your next exhale gracefully,
Let the palms float down.
Tuck the back toes under and shift the hips back as you glide the front heel forward.
You might use some blocks for support if your fingers can't quite reach the ground.
If the back knee feels quite uncomfortable,
You're welcome to double pad.
A yoga mat with a blanket or towel to support the back knee.
Press through the fingertips to find lift.
Draw the belly in.
And exhale,
Folding forward as you find and create that spaciousness underneath your right leg for the next five.
Fall.
Three,
Two.
One.
Great.
With the next breath,
Softly shift forward back briefly into a low lunge position.
And now replace your right hand so it comes on the inside of your right thigh.
And you can shift your right foot off to the side.
So maybe it touches the border or even comes off the yoga mat.
Your left palm is right underneath you.
You might stay here or you might tuck the back toes under and lengthen the back heel while you bend the front knee to come into that lunge position.
Maybe you stay here in a lizard lunge variation or maybe you pulse as you breathe in.
Lift the hips up and straighten both legs.
Exhale,
Rainbow the hips as you spread and anchor through the back heel and bend through the front knee.
If you're pulsing we'll do this two more times.
Great.
Now,
As you come to the end of that last round,
You might stay here.
You might drop the back knee down,
Untuck the back toes and come into your forearm lizard position.
Creating spaciousness here for the next five.
Or three,
To One.
With the next inhale let the palms reconnect with the air lift the back knee off,
Find that connection.
And then maybe the back knee comes back down.
You turn the back foot in the direction towards your bum.
So you step the foot towards the side of the yoga mat lengthwise.
And you start to walk your hands so that they are right between both of your legs so that you can sit your left bum on your left heel and you can inch your right foot.
In the malasana like position,
Garland pose like position here.
In the yogic squat position.
Let the Right other arm begin to magnetize and connect with the inner right thigh.
And as you keep that connection,
Press through the fingertips,
Fine lift.

Maybe you bend the left elbow and you place it right behind your back.
Maybe you thread that palm so it comes towards the back of the middle of the thigh.
Or maybe you reach your right palm underneath.
You can lean slightly forward.
And then once again,
Once you found that bind,
Find that lift and openness through the heart space.
For the next five.
For relaxing your feet.
Three,
Maybe the corners of your mouth turn up.

Good.
Let's slowly and gently release.
From here,

Bring the palms together.
As you breathe out,
Let your heart shine outwards.
Breath in,
You receive some shine.
Breath out,
You send it out into the wall.
One last time in.
And from the hips through the heart,
You shine it up.
From here,
We'll turn towards your left knee,
The side we started from,
And then come briefly into a plank position.
Plank to downward facing dog.
And then from downward facing dog,
Shifting forward into a plank.
Moving through your vinyasa,
Whatever that looks like.
And gently coming into downward facing dog.
We'll stay here breathing in and out.
For the next five,
Fall.

From downward facing dog,
Begin to lengthen your left leg up to the sky in a three-legged dog position.
Bend the left knee.
Reach that knee up to the sky.
Then bring the knee into the nose as you step forward into a warrior two position.
Turn the back foot out.
The front foot still faces the left side of the yoga mat.
Front knee bends.
As you breathe in,
Cartwheel the hands up.
To settle into your warrior two position.
Find that spaciousness through the inner left groin and that strength through the left thigh and bum.

You might stay here.
You might let the left palm come on the inside of the left thigh as you push the left arm against the left thigh.
And maybe you stay here.
Maybe you lean slightly forward as you loop and come into a half or full bind.
And if you're able to come into a half a full bind,
Take a moment to find lift through the spine.
Again,
You're welcome to stay here.
The next step is to shift the weight forward to step the back foot to come into Bird of Paradise.
We start by stepping the back foot in one or two steps forward.
Shift the weight towards the right foot.
Let the left.
Heel come off the ground and then slowly rise.
With control,
Without rushing.
At any point of time if you feel like you need to ground you can come back down.

Where you began?
And then begin to from this runner's lunge position.
Lift your left leg up to the sky.
Three-legged dog.
And then come into three-legged plank.
From three-legged plank,

And downward facing dog.
Five deep and full inhalations and exhalations in your downward facing dog at your own pace.
Your own time.
When you feel ready,
Softly bend through the knees and come briefly into child's pose.
Today we'll come into a rounded child's pose with the knees together.
Arms draped by the side and your head touching the ground.
You're welcome to linger here if this feels good.
If you feel ready to transition,
Slowly breathe in,
Rise up.
And breathe out.
Take a moment in hero pose.
Settling here.
Noticing how it feels.
In the inner groin and thigh area.
Through your legs.
And then very slowly and gently,
We'll begin to lie on your back.
Bend both knees.
And from here,
We'll press down through the feet and reach your arms forward.
This is the only core work officially that we'll do for today.
Make sure all 10 toes connect with the earth.
We'll round the spine to really activate the core muscles here as we reach down.
Fingers reaching forward,
Spine rounding,
Draw the belly in,
Magnetize the legs towards each other for the next 10.

Ha.
Last quarter.
And slowly release.
Coming back.
Lying down.
Noticing how that feels.
Taking a moment to feel the support of the ground underneath you.
Feeling your breath.
Now from here,
We're going to come into Eagle Legs.
The option might be to cross your left thigh over your right.
I am your mirror in this case.
And maybe you stay with this option.
You might also double cross your ankles if that is accessible for you.
The point is to squeeze the inner thighs against each other.
Today,
We've done lots of opening abduction,
Meaning moving the legs away from each other.
So we want to finish off by balancing to close and squeeze them into the midline.
Maybe you stay here.
Maybe if you'd like to come into a spinal twist,
You can let the knees fall over to your right side.
And you can adjust how high or how low the knee is with regards to your hip.
It will change where you feel this twist in the spine.
For your hands,
They can rest on your chest.
The sides of your body on the yoga mat.
They can be in a T-shape or packed as arms.
Whatever feels good for you.
I'm going to stay here for five breaths.
You're welcome to linger here.
If it feels good.
If you feel ready to transition to the other side slowly and gently roll back on your spine.
And cross the legs.
Take a moment to notice how that feels coming back into the starting point.
And then now we'll try the other side.
Cross your right thigh over your left this time.
Maybe you stay with the thighs squeezing against each other.
Or maybe you even cross the ankles if that is accessible for you.
Whatever feels best.
And then from here,
Slowly and gently,
Once you've found that midline and connected to that midline,
Then slowly you can shift your hips as you let.
Your right knee fall over towards your left.
The hands can be in any position.
And a tea and cactus on the yoga mat,
Or maybe on your body.
I quite like to rest my hands along the sides of my ribs.
To feel the expansion and the contraction.
Of my breath,
Of my lungs,
Embracing my heart Soften your gaze as we stay here for about four more breaths.
You're also welcome to stay here.
This feels good.
Always welcome.
If you feel ready to transition,
Slowly coming back through the center and crossing those legs.
Maybe you can hug your knees into your chest if that feels good.
You can rock a couple of times massaging the back of the spine.
And then let's take the next five beats for any kind of movement,
Any kind of pulse that feels good for you for five.
Ball.
Breathe.
Two.
One.
If and when you begin to feel ready to come into a very brief Short micro relaxation,
Then slowly and gently let yourself come into the position that feels restful for you.
This might be a more traditional looking savasana where the legs are straight,
Arms are by the sides.
It might be with your knees bent.
And your last part of the tailbone tucked under.
Feet hip distance apart.
If you feel like rounding your spine,
You might widen your knees.
Apologies,
Widen your feet and let the knees come in.
Knocking your knees in.
This will scoop the last part of your tailbone.
Those of you who want to create even more spaciousness in the inner groin,
If you feel that feels good for you,
Then you can choose the opposite,
Where the knees move apart.
And the feet come together in Baddha Konasana.
So you choose what feels good for you.
And we're going to stay for about 15 breaths.
Let the hands rest in any position that feels restful.
Closing your eyes if that feels good for you.
Every exhale imagine you send your breath to the inner groin and thigh area.
Every inhale,
You feel that area pulse and send breath back to your heart.
Every exhale is a letting go.
Every inhale is a blossoming open.
You're very welcome to stay here if this feels good for you.
You're also very welcome to if you feel ready to conclude this practice.
Slowly and gently if your legs are straight,
Letting your fingers,
Your toes,
Your legs begin to move.
Bend one and then both knees.
Slowly.
Roll over to the side of your preference.
Take a moment,
Maybe even lengthen one bicep underneath your ear to form a pillow for your head to rest on.
Exhale to soften against the ground.
And from this softness with the next breath in,
Use the support of your palms to slowly push yourself up into a seated position.
Coming into a seated position,
We'll gently and slowly relax the shoulders down.
Exhale to sink and release the weight of your body down.
Inhale,
Growing the back of your head up to the sky.
We bring both palms together in front of the chest.
From here,
Exhale from the heart.
Send the breath down towards the hips.
Inner groin,
From the inner groin,
Let it blossom and let it shine.
Next breath from the hips all the way back up to the heart.
Feel that connection with the deeper layers,
The lower chakras,
Energy centers.
Of you and your heart space.
Let your head bow down towards your heart,
Taking a moment to send gladness and gratitude to that space.
Of safety,
Of anchoring,
Of fluidity.
And then slowly and gently,
If your eyes are closed,
Let them blink open.
Thank you so much for joining me for this practice.
I hope you enjoyed this fun,
Funky practice where we flew in Bird of Paradise and we were exploring different angles and compass poles.
I'm looking forward to seeing you in the next video.
