Full Body Yoga Flow for Control

Move with intention through this yoga-inspired full body workout designed to build strong, stable hips and fluid, active flexibility. You’ll flow through controlled, strength-based sequences that target the hips, inner thighs, obliques, glutes, hamstrings, and deep core all while improving joint stability and control.

Expect a balance of slow, grounded holds and dynamic transitions that challenge your stability, enhance mobility, and teach your body to own every range of motion. This practice focuses on activating the muscles that support your hips—especially the glute medius, deep rotators, and inner thighs—so you can move with greater ease, control, and confidence.

Perfect for dancers and movers, this class helps you develop effortless extensions, stronger balances, and durable, resilient hips that support you in every movement.

💪 Muscles Targeted

Glutes (Max + Medius) + Hamstrings → support lifted extensions, hip stability, and pelvic control
Quadriceps → lower body strength + control
Hip Flexors + Adductors → control range of motion and improve active flexibility
Transverse Abdominis + Obliques → deep core support, rotation control, and full-body coordination
Shoulders + Serratus Anterior → stability and control in weight-bearing positions
Spinal Extensors (Back) → posture, lift, and support for back-line strength

💃 For Dancers

Effortless extensions don’t come from flexibility alone—they come from strength within your range.

This flow trains your body to control every inch of movement, so you’re not just reaching higher—you’re sustaining and placing your lines with clarity.

By combining breath, strength, and mobility, you build the kind of control that translates directly into:
• more stable balances
• smoother transitions
• lifted, supported extensions

Control = Freedom
When your body is supported and stable, your movement feels lighter, more fluid, and fully in your control.

Jenna Tid-Bit: A small Pilates ball is one of my go-to props! It’s incredibly versatile and can be used in so many ways to increase muscular engagement, challenge stability, and enhance proprioception.

By adding an element of instability or gentle resistance, the ball helps you tap into deeper stabilizing muscles that are often overlooked—especially through the core, inner thighs, and hips. It also provides valuable feedback, helping you become more aware of your alignment and movement patterns.

Whether you're squeezing, balancing, or pressing into it, this simple prop can elevate even the most basic exercises into something far more effective and intentional.
