How to do a hip circle
- Stand tall with your feet hip-width apart and hands resting on your hips.
- Shift your weight slightly and lift one knee to about hip height.
- Draw a large circle with the knee, moving it out to the side, back, and around.
- Complete the circles in one direction, then reverse the motion.
- Lower the leg and repeat on the other side.
Form tips
- Keep your standing leg soft and your torso upright.
- Move slowly through the full range of the hip joint.
- Engage your core to stay balanced throughout.
