Kevin: Love Me Love My Wall (40 minutes)

The Wall is an excellent prop because it won't let you cheat and it will never lie to you. It's just there: steady and solid, offering feedback and support. The perfect boyfriend? Maybe!
Even if Shakira's Hips Don't Lie, most of the rest of us cheat a lot when it comes to the way we use our legs in our yoga practice. This yoga snack is meant to be a tune up for your hips, using the feedback from the wall to trick you into aligning your body properly in poses like Warrior 2 and Half Moon. It's slow and deeply challenging work, but it's necessary for anyone looking to sustain a lifelong yoga practice.
In addition to the wall, I suggest a lot of props: 2 yoga blocks, 1-2 yoga straps, a bolster (or a few blankets) and a sandbag or other 5-10 pound weight. You DO NOT need all of this. Grab whatever you do have and I'll offer modifications along the way.
