Thx Jason, love your podcast the two of you are great. ThankGod we are all not teaching like we did years ago. I would like to think I always have room to learn more and do better! You have been a great teacher for me. These days if I feel like being extreme I practice being extreme at taking really good care of myself. Thx Dar

Jason, this is such valuable information! We hear so much about closed and open hips. I also prefer to not transition between them just because of placement of feet and it flows better, but it’s good to know they aren’t dangerous if it makes sense to add such transition. Grateful for your wisdom!

Labral tears are growing in yoga, primarily from extreme ROM and/or years of strict rectilinear‘alignment’ - in this warrior example he’s right, it’s always about the transition, and as he explains, at 90 degrees the transition is problematic. Strict parallel in deep hip flexion is internally rotated in relation to the acetabulum. His examples of flexion with abduction translates to every single parallel or ‘hugging in’ deep hip flexion pose- splits, deep lunges, warrior 3…. Also this type of concern exists in every single joint, as every joint surface is curved and strict ideas of rectilinear movement distorts the joint surface relationships elsewhere in the body as well. Second to hips spine is likely most vulnerable.

Thank you for this, Jason. I see people transitioning from Ardha Chandrasana Balance into warrior three and vice versa. This looks to me like it would be very stressful on the hip joint. Am I right?
@JasonCrandellYoga6 ай бұрын
It's demanding on the hip..... but, it's not nearly as demanding or stressful on the hips as walking 10,000 steps per day (which is incredibly good for us, in part, because of the stress). Our hips are very, very capable of handling Warrior 1 to Ardha Chandrasana and vice versa. Of course, do what you feel is appropriate, but, as a rule of thumb, there really isn't a mechanism by which this transition is dangerous. In fact, it's often used in Physical Therapy to help strengthen the hips.

I hurt my hip a couple of years ago doing a Happy Baby pose. It's no longer acute pain but a constant ache that varies on the intensity continuum. I suppose it's time to see an orthopedic surgeon.

Sorry to hear it. At very least, avoid postures that create this irritation.

I have been taught that open hip/close hip rotation is fine as long you have more than one weight bearing point of support ie. two legs, 1 arm, 1 leg. What I was recently taught that going from a neutral pelvis position to external rotation on one weight bearing leg is dangerous for the hip as in warrior 3 - Half Moon or chair into half moon. I love both of these transitions but have not had them in my practice since I was taught this. Is this in fact false information and can I safely add these transitions back into my practice? For reference I do have a torn labrum in one hip but I am a lifetime athlete so that could have occurred at any point in time in my life.
@JasonCrandellYoga6 ай бұрын
Totally not dangerous.... Honestly, think about the type of stress the hips endure walking up stairs, walking down stairs, going on hikes with elevation changes. We've evolved to be on one leg... like... a lot. Every time you take a step, you're on one leg. The mechanism of labral injury is the same whether you're on one or both legs. It's about the angles, not the amount of load. THAT SAID.... since you have a labrum injury, it's warranted to be more conservative in your choices. If it were me, I would not worry about these transitions and, instead, I'd avoid all of the things I spoke of in the last part of the video. But, don't take my word for it. It's your hip, so please let your symptoms and sensibilities guide you.

@maryellenyasay69356 ай бұрын
I loved this video so much -extremely thoughtful explanation. But I have a question. What about single leg balancing poses that transition without bringing the other leg down for instance, going from warrior three to balancing half moon, where the weight of the body is on the femoral head and the single standing leg? I’ve seen this many times in class and it’s a red flag.
@StueartMill6 ай бұрын
I have heard caution about that transition too, but it does not seem to fit what Jason is describing because the femur of the grounded leg moves into abduction instead of adduction and would not be internally rotating. Perhaps there is another reason for caution? Personally, I’ve never had problems with that transition, but I have felt the “pinch” on the front hip that Jason described in variations of Marichyasana and for me in Garudasana
