    Thanks so much for your stretching video. I too have the same hip imbalance and
    in just a few minutes doing the exercises with you on the video I felt and noticed
    a bit more mobility in the muscle that control that left hip area…good to do several
    times a day since I am up and down from my desk, and my gym is closed. Also,
    taking short rides around the neighborhood on the bike as Spring is in the air!
    Clean living is the mantra! With appreciation.

      Very good, if maintained properly (over the long term) it does not have to be an issue or a limitation in your life.
