Learn basic postures that engage your hips, inner thighs and lower back. Cultivate steadiness, calm and greater body awareness as you move. Props Needed: A block.

Begin on your back in a supported pose, using your strap (or belt if you don't have a strap) to deeply engage your hamstrings. Use this muscle awareness to learn downward dog and several postures from the traditional sun salutation series. Props Needed: A strap.
