Yoga For Low Back and Hamstrings | 30-Minute Yoga

Join me for this stretchy 30-minute low to the ground yoga practice for the back and hamstrings! This gentle class invites a full body awareness and focuses on a deep opening of the muscles around the hips, lower back, and legs.
Our hamstrings can get tight when we sit too much or when we overtrain the quadriceps. When this happens, the hamstrings begin to pull down on the sit bones, making the pelvis and hips tight and flattening the natural curvature in the low back.
Create stability while welcoming in a relaxing release as we work to invite equilibrium to both mind and body. Build your practice toward Sleeping Vishnu Pose! Breathe deep, move mindfully, and enjoy!
Let me know how it goes for you in the comment section down below!

Every YWA video has so many comments I can’t imagine who might actually happen to read this one; I’ve never commented before but this practice spurred me to write. I’ve done yoga for many years on and off, and been a near-daily YWA practitioner since COVID began in 2020, surfing through her remarkably prolific offerings with no apparent plan, but writing down the name of every video I tried. My lists tell me that I first tried this one in mid-2020, and I remember I just couldn’t get my bod to stop cramping in the last poses. This morning I revisited it like it was a new gift, and fully immersed in every opportunity she provides here for total body awareness. My mind allowed my leg to move from the hip in a way I didn’t think I could - that’s what you get for thinking! What I’m wagging on and on here for is, basically, if you’re just starting, keep going. And if you find a hitch along the way, definitely keep going so later you can say Wow! I get it! Grateful for the myriad and unfolding gifts of Yoga With Adriene.

[@fabiolajuareztoquero2546]

I'm a server and stand up to 8 hours daily. Even though I'm young and strong, standing for many hours puts my legs in deep pain. Today I wanted to release some tension; this practice was like a warm hug for my soul. Also with Adriene's sense of humor, I smiled many times during the practice. Thanks for shining your light with us Adriene. I love you!

These stretches are all quite difficult for me, especially the poses on the sides. I was greeted by a comment from myself a year ago in which I expressed great frustration and a lack of enjoyment of this practice. It's good to know that I have improved in my ability to activate my core muscles and to support my back, but I am also grateful for the opportunity to be more open and move with more ease of mind. Feeling wobbly, rolling around when I was not intending to roll around, led to laughter and smiles rather than tears and frustration. I am grateful to be here! I am grateful for love. Look with love rather than fear ♥

I legit can't put my feelings into words anymore. Each video turns out to be exactly what my mind and body are screaming for time after time, over and over and over again. I've been diagnosed with chronic tightness of all parts of the body as a result of my cerebral palsy but my back and hamstrings are usually the tightest areas I try to stretch out every morning. There's something larger than life in this sense of awareness in this community and that's what makes me love it so much. We all pretty much feel and understand each other without saying a word through our practice together. I am forever grateful to have found this community and to have experienced this sense of awareness with everyone practicing. Thank you, Adriene for the love that never withers. Keep going, everyone. You got this. Much love. Namaste.

I DID the low back and hamstrings today for the first time in 2 years. My attempts then were a dismal failure, too much pain in my hips to pull it off. Today it DID IT; the hip pain was gone, my leg waving is half of what it can be, but I’m thrilled with the progress. The take away is just keep at it, the stronger you get the easier it becomes. Thanks Adriene for being there, you can change our lives!! Love you. Brenda

[@Sunny37o7]

Near the end of this practice I found myself starting to tear up. As Adriene said “life is good” I felt the corners of my mouth turn up and suddenly I felt a genuine smile. I’ve done basic yoga for many years to help condition my body for other sports and keep me feeling loose, but the more complicated yoga shapes were never something I thought I could do. Those laid down stretches were quite difficult, and I felt this small pit of fear that I wouldn’t be able to do it, or I would hurt myself, or we would go too quickly and I wouldn’t understand. But Adriene lead the positions so gently and slowly and kindly that I was able to keep up. I was able to connect in to myself in a way that I’ve never experience in yoga. Sitting there in our end position I felt my shoulder pull down and open more than I’ve ever felt and I genuinely felt so proud of myself. I did that!! I did those hard yoga poses, definitely modified, but I felt them! I benefited from that work, and I felt connected. I just wanted to say thank you so much Adriene, for you kindness and patience in teaching. By namaste I had tears running down my cheek and felt this great sense of relief and pride. Thank you thank you thank you!!

None of your videos have helped me as much as this one. They are all great yoga instructions, but this video is truly phenomenal. The flow is so perfect, your explanations are simple and understandable as possible, the pace is just right, the movements are wonderful in both the relief they provide and the yogic purpose, the focus on breath and presence within the body. This one is truly special to me. I actually realized 1, that as a student it is my duty to look at what you’re trying to teach in order to most utilize our time, and 2, that yoga is not just about relieving back pain or calming down but about treating the body as an aesthetic unit of physical mobility. By that I mean directing one’s attention and effort into positioning the body in beautiful ways, beautiful in the sense that they incite pleasure, relief and oneness, just like any other art form.

Did this on day 118 of COVID quarantine, started crying when you talked about all the "buddies" we have through doing this practice! Thank you for the feeling of connection and love!

[@Hottie4u1987]

me too!

[@bodhisattvah9955]

Ditto 😓

[@redaze150]

I’ve just recently discovered Adriene and it’s been a game changer!! Keeps me grounded and recharged. Thanks so much for this!

[@lilyyoung841]

Same here 💛

[@kelli5339]

For anyone scrolling through looking for a lower back release and relaxation - This is an AMAZING option!! Feels fantastic.

[@allicia9054]

Thank you so much for this .I was doing this one regularly , and then my mom passed and I stopped. That was a year and a half ago. This is the first time doing this since then, and my body feels good after today's session and is going to keep healing. I'm excited for tomorrow's session. Bless you!❤

[@louisesmart2505]

Welcome to day five fellow BRIDGERS 😊 this practice is really giving me something to look forward to everyday. I wish you all well in your practice 🙏 namaste

I begin almost every day with yoga with Adriene- what a wonderful way to start the day! Peaceful mind and strong body. Cant’t beat it!

You've changed my life Adriene, I mean it! Thank you for all you do :)

[@HK-yb6by]

Likewise, 😀

[@kirkmara5]

I have dropped in studio pilates because I'm now 100% at home yoga with Adriene. I feel like I know you and you have helped me with the greatest back and neck pain. Thank you! Pilates didn't help me like just 1 of your class!

[@lobkekoning1528]

Hello from the Netherlands! I'm now almost 20 weeks pregnant and i feel so comfortable and fit because of yoga with Adriene. Thank you!

[@reneevansomerengreve2472]

Gefeliciteerd! Ademhalen is key straks ;-) veel geluk!

[@annafuertsch8661]

This video helped me so much with my menstrual cramps. My periods can be really brutal both in terms of pain and my emotional state. Your videos are so healing and tender. This morning I laid on my kitchen floor with one leg in the air and cried like a baby, but I really needed it. I actually feel like I can face my day now. Your videos have been helping me in this way for years - I hope you know that.

[@freshfunk12]

PREECH!!!

[@TheMariahalyna]

Thanks for being buddies, everyone, and thanks, Adrienne, for bringing our awareness to that and to our bodies and breath! What a great opening I feel now! Wonderful.

[@marianaisdabomb]

This was exactly what I needed today! Thank you Adriene! Refresh day 16, day 105 💗

[@nense7thewitch]

ARE YOU READING MY MIND? I've been having a lot of trouble with my lower back this last week, I check my subscription box today, and here you are with a low back video.😂 Thank you so much ❤️

[@Annie-le1vv]

Nevena Martinovic ....the universal connection, you put your needs and positive energy and thoughts out there and good comes back; as is needed 🙏

[@michstratford]

Of course Adriene read your mind. And mine. It happens so often I just don't ask the question anymore. I just subconciously send my thoughts to Texas (or wherever she may be) and here we are! 🙄. Thank you Adriene - and the love letter yesterday was immensely lovely too ❤

[@paulinaskwara766]

This is by far the loveliest approach to yoga I have come across. I find myself doing these classes with a smile ever time! Thank you Adriene! xx

[@robynmclean4090]

I haven't done yoga for at least a year, and this was such a beautiful practice to come back to. My hamstrings are stupidly tight, and my hips give me a lot of grief. This practice felt like a dream, and I was actually surprised at what I was able to do. Love Adriene's balance of challenge and being with where you're at. What a gift you are!! Thank you.

[@ohkaydoris]

This was very needed today for me. Been experiencing some back pain this last day and also been struggling emotionally. Once we bought hands to heart in the end i had a massive emotional release that I believe was needed. Thank you very much for this today, and to everyone practicing ❤

[@marilynwillems7535]

I’m 79 and this keeps my young fit and stress free

[@adrianasalas423]

Wow! Inspirational

[@SherrisPlace]

Just like ‘Janice Lennard’ on you tube! AMAZING!

[@MM-qn3go]

Yes! That's inspiring!

[@Amy-tt5jg]

Adriene, Benji, the whole online community: Thank you and I love you!!!

[@KarenCLang-sw3ts]

Happy Easter 2024 This was amazing and PERFECT for today. Thank you!

[@jan-ns2ye]

I am thrilled she has a sequence that doesn't require getting on hands and knees or getting up and down repeatedly. With my current injuries most movement sequences are impossible, but this feels SOOOO good!

[@wpwentzell]

I cried tears of love after this video. As a middle-aged male working through some hard times in life right now, this video helped connect me with myself, and the practice was restorative and easy to follow. As I heal, I am indebted to you for your sharing this with me. Thank you, Adrienne.

[@anissiadeclerck8006]

It's so weird how everytime I do yoga with Adriene it's exactly what my body needs. I swear she is in the room with me because she also calls me out everytime I forget to breath. How is this possible!? Lol.

[@lindagray1809]

Yes! And she knows just when my forehead is tight, or my ears are high. Perfect!

[@visualaddictionx]

Same here 🤩

[@deehaller296]

[@sophieanneperniaortoza612]

Apr 16, 2022 05:46 Intention : tap my inner child to be humble I love when Adriene says "chooo" like a child playing with sound effects and I can't help but to smile as I remember the child in me too, the "Cris cross applesauce" sealed the deal, as I am done with this practice I know that the day thus far will be great because I started with a smile and feel good practice. Thank you for a fun practice Adriene See you all tomorrow beautiful souls Namaste🙏🏼

[@williamb7275]

I am still playing with sounds in the classroom with the children!

[@annaradcliffe]

I tried lowering my upper body with my leg in the air and fell to the back, got back up and immediately fell to the front. Thanks for the laugh, Adriene, as well as the stretch!

[@janetwest1244]

We’ve all been there Anna. Don’t give up!👍

[@SofiaSantos7]

Is it just me or Adriene looks more stunning then ever?

[@Fahimisthebestyoutuber]

Yeah she looks beautiful

[@janafabijanic1464]

Totally, and hair is more beautiful than ever

[@thegreenfury_]

Yes! And she let out the best inside me. She is beautiful in and out. 💚

[@AnthonySmith-oe3uf]

Working manual labor and then insisting on lifting heavy, your videos help me decrease pain and increase body awareness and have an overall better quality of life so thank you for your videos and dedication!

[@alyssadigges9496]

I suffer from chronic pain, and your videos allow me to find joy in movement and extend compassion to myself when things don't come as easily as I would like them to. Thank you for all that you do!

[@DarlingHealer33303]

the ending was adorable. i'm watching this during the covid19 shelter in place, so i really needed to hear that point about connecting with people who are also watching this video. Thank you, Adriene

[@maggieroberts2417]

Fantastic session Isolated and alone feeling overwhelmed but after this session I feel more in touch with you all Thank you

[@unciondelsanto08]

I was struggling with my lower back today. Wow! What a difference i felt after this session!!! I've actually tried different yoga videos and none compare to yours! They are easy to follow and i am so thankful for the modifications you provide! Just a side note I am 270 lbs and yoga is now my choice of exercises! Thanks!!!!!

[@rosanapeek2510]

Thank you so much. I'm a breast cancer survivor. You have helped me so much with my back problems, due osteoarthritis. Thank you so much!!!❤️❤️❤️

[@leilasaint-claire8616]

Thank you so much, I’ve had debilitating back pain for the past few weeks (from stress and lack of movement) and I’ve just done the video. My back pain is gone and I can’t stop crying from relief. Thank you for being so approachable and effective, this was great.

[@leajacobsen3574]

*EXPLORE · day 6:* It's getting colder and colder up here in Scandinavia, so I did this session while wearing socks and a fuzzy fleece sweater to keep me warm. It was nice to stay low to the ground on a lazy Sunday. I especially enjoyed the Sleeping Vishnu pose at the end!

[@valsan428]

This is literally me right now in Berlin!

[@raiodeluzsambastudio5523]

I am newer to the Yoga With Adriene community and I am absolutely hooked. As a dancer and first and foremost a human being, these stretches help me to tackle my passion and everyday life

[@lexicol2011]

Adriene seems to be very passionate about yoga and loves to do it. It's refreshing to have such a good teacher who is so inspiring!

[@sanniekim]

Im glad that there's a lot of people around the world practicing with me. Maybe someone clicked on the video at the same time i did and we practiced together without knowing it. Thinking about this makes me realize that im truly not alone. Thank you all for being with me, and huge thanks to Adriene who made it possible. Love you❤❤

[@meiyueliu1400]

I did yoga for gratitude before this video, which helped me to tune in and made me realize how grateful I am for this community and to be exposed to some new poses. This yoga session left me feeling good. The coming week will be a bit hectic, so I am planning to dedicate more time for yoga and thus take care of myself. It brings out the best in me, and sometimes gently nudges me to look at the scary things as well. Yoga has transformed me and my way of living. Along with Buddhist teaching, I feel prepared to help and support others, and to spread my love. ❤️ thank you so much for being an amazing mentor! Have a good day!

[@coritraylor8380]

Thank you! I am finding my way back to the practice and was always accustomed to 60 -75 min of yoga at a time. I am finding these 20 -45 min videos are just what I need right now. The other day I did one for back of yours and felt so good the next day. I just need to keep in mind how good something feels and give myself permission to make yoga a part of my every day.

[@vasileadeladenisa5608]

After a long time , I put my self first! All my pain now is vanish! Thank you for this amazing energy ! Thank you for sharing all this amazing time ! ❤️

[@seankelly9241982]

Reading the comments is like meeting at Starbucks after a class. But less catty 🤣🥰

[@monica-wb1gh]

bwahahah i'm just realizing that's exactly why i like reading the comments under her videos! It's all of us processing how great it felt to stretch lol

[@SherrisPlace]

Yup, I’m really done with in person classes now that we have such an abundance of online videos like Adriene’s. COVID has really changed this old world. We’ve all had to dig deep and realize how very little we really need outside internet, you tube, and nature.

[@janjoyal6012]

Less money spent and less calories gained.

[@SGpotatokat]

Oh my gosh, my heart melted when she said she's our buddy. Adriene, I hope you feel the love, because you are always so caring and kind with all of us in the FWFG community. We love you!

[@user-zd7vt6xf3b]

This sequence has saved my lower back! 🙏 one week of this daily and now pop back whenever I feel the twinge. Love your work Adriene

Oh man, did I need this! I woke up with lower back and hip pain, trusted that I'd find what I was needing in Adriene and this did the trick!! THANK YOU

[@fc4660]

Me too,been sitting For months on my dining chair working from home, I needed this one

[@kristindodge8068]

We just finished 12 days of skiing and at ages 59 and 70 my husband and I really appreciated this yoga session. Thank you, Adriene and Benji. We had been practicing regularly with you but life got a bit hectic and somehow we dropped our daily practice. We are committing to an evening practice starting 9 pm tonight. Thanks again, Adriene!

[@leegarriott3912]

I have been suffering low back pain for the past year. Was in physical therapy for four months. Still couldn't get quite back to normal, but after doing all your low back yoga several days a week, I feel like I am coming closer to home base. Thank you Adriene.
