This class is focused on the IT band, the ligament that runs down the outside of the thigh from the hip to the shin. IT Band Syndrome is one of the most common overuse injuries in endurance athletes like runners and cyclists. If you have been experiencing pain in that area, this class is a MUST DO!

In order to really dive into the IT band, we must also get into the hips and the hamstrings so you can expect to stretch those areas as well.

We begin this class in a supine position, prepping the hips, hamstrings and IT band for deeper stretches, and each series of poses moves a little deeper into the body. You will also flow a bit in this class to help build heat in the body and suppleness in the joint.

I hope that you also take away a few new stretches that you can incorporate into your post-run or ride stretching routine.

Amazing class and perfect for my needs! I am a cyclist who had a botched knee replacement and also have spinal stenosis and arthritis in my lower back. This was exactly what I needed to stretch out my body. I refuse to give up. I ll return to this class frequently.

This was just the ticket after driving for 10 hours! Luckily, our hotel room had enough space for me to do this nice and stretchy class!

Such a great class! Creative sequences and clear cueing. A great combination of standing, balancing and stretching poses. My hamstrings feel so warm and open!

Wow! What an amazing series of stretches. Perfect cues, great transitions, no extraneous chatter. And the gift of a calming, relaxing soundtrack instead of the usual annoying YogaDownload music. Thank you, Kylie! I feel ready to run a 5k tomorrow!

Great class, well queued, some flow as well as really good stretches. My only suggestion is to provide an alternative for the pose that involves having your legs crossed and leaning forward on your arms (like a cross-legged prasarita), because it s quite risky for the knees. I ve tried that move in some of Rob Loud s classes and it always makes my knees pop and almost give way. I do my own alternative pose but I imagine that others with knee injuries might find this risky as well.

By far my favorite class. I seem to go back to it over and over again and do it 1X-2X a week because it s the only class that really gives my whole leg a great stretch. As a biker and runner, this class is a necessity!
