Leg Swings

Stand upright, sensing moment by moment for a dynamic, active alignment in your bones.

Touching the wall for balance, shift your weight to the leg farthest from the wall. Begin to swing the leg closest to the wall forward and back from the hip joint, allowing the free arm to swing in the same direction and tempo.

Allow this movement to affect your breath. Allow the breath to drop in all the way to the pelvic floor, and release it generously as you swing the limbs.

When you’re ready, switch to the second side.

When you’re finished, take a few moments to sense your breath and any shifts in your energy or alignment. Try to take this awareness with you into the next thing you do.
