Everyone has a pose (or position) that they struggle with... and we blame it on our tight hips!

Most of us feel like our hips are tight. But the reality is there are several factors that affect our hip flexibility.

Some of these factors we can influence/change/adjust... while others... we can't do anything about.

The hip is a deep and complicated joint.

However, the more you can understand these factors and reflect back how they relate to your situation, you'll be better informed about what's possible for your practice related to hip flexibility.

Specifically, as yoga teacher's, it's SUPER important to understand these 4 key elements for your own practice and for the safety of your students.
