Pelvic Tilts are fabulous for stretching out the low back and opening up the hips and mobilising the low back.

Starting position

• Lie on your back in your neutral position with your arms relaxed down by your side.

Action

• Breathe in to prepare, breathe out, connect your abdominals and tilt your pelvis towards your face, releasing your low back into the mat.
• Breathe in and return to your starting position.

Tips

• Keep the hip joints soft.
• Visualise your pelvis curling around towards your face.
• Keep some pressure through the base of the big toes as this will help keep your ankles, knees and hips in alignment.
• Think about sending the knees away from you as you pelvic tilt.
