I love these short videos as a booster; I added it to another of your sessions. I have only done Rocking Prep with you; it is not a commonly-used move. I like it: it reminds me of being a kid: we used to do a move like that with such ease! It is challenging, but it is also good stretch. Thank u!

Wonderful! I'm glad you are loving the booster videos 🙌💪💖

Love this video, Mira! So happy to have found you recently. What would be a modified rocking prep? My hip flexors are very tight

[@Catherine-f8i]

Are we supposed to keep our knees closer together during rocking prep, or is it okay to have them wider apart? I have heard conflicting input regarding the proper form for this move, appreciate any help you can provide!

Thank you so much Mira 🙏 I would like to ask you for some advice please. I have a tough time controlling my shoulder blades, so it looks like I have wings alot of the time. Any tips on how to fix this. Thanking you in advance 🌸

Hi James, great question! Firstly, stretch your Rhomboids muscles between the shoulder blades. Focus on finding more connection to your Latissimus Dorsi muscles (also known as Lats) and the Serratus Anterior muscles to stabilize the ‘winging’ scapulae. The lengthen the front lower ribcage to the hips and connect to your deep center. Sorry, if this is a little technical. You may need to google those muscles and see the pictures to get a good sense of the structures. As a practical example, say you’re doing a traditional push-up - Reduce the range of motion to where you can still keep the scapulae stable. Increase the range as you become stronger in the upper girdle.

Does anyone know if I should feel double leg kick and rocking prep mostly in my lower back?
