## Resource

This variation on a classic hip mobility exercise adds an isometric element — pressing your hand against the side of your head — to enhance body awareness and grounding as you move through full knee circles. Try pausing at different points in the circle to really feel each position. A simple but effective upgrade to your movement practice. Interested in the philosophy behind these techniques?
