The psoas is one of the body's most influential muscles, affecting posture, breathing, spinal stability, and even how we respond to stress. In this course, taught by experienced yoga educator Sandra Anderson, you'll explore the anatomy and function of the psoas while learning why prolonged sitting, chronic tension, and nervous system stress can contribute to tightness, imbalance, and discomfort.
Through Sandra’s clear, thoughtful guidance and yoga-based practices, you'll learn how to release unnecessary tension in the psoas, improve mobility through the hips and pelvis, and build the strength and stability needed for healthy movement. You'll leave with practical tools to support your low back, improve posture, and create greater ease throughout your body and breath.
