If you often find your SI joints sensitive after walking, this class is tailor-made for you. As you know most of us prefer our right leg. We sense it better and we use it more during gait. We need this asymmetry but we also need the left leg to "win" every once in a while.

Equipment:
You'll need the following equipment:
- A mat.
- A yoga block or thick book
- Some wall space.
- Two small towels.
- A pillow.
- A pilates ball, foam roller (or similar).
- Supportive shoes (recommended).
- A kazoo or straw (optional).
