Fire – glutes and IT band accessing through twists. Energetically activating Manipura Chakra, our solar plexus, related with our will power and ego identity.

Water – groin and hips. Energetically activating Svadhisthana, the Sacral Chakra, our source of movement and connection, related with our reproductive system.

Earth – hamstrings and forward folds. Energetically activating Muladhara, the Root Chakra, related with grounding and safety.
