Pelvic rocking (seated)

  1. Sit in a comfortable, neutral position, with your feet flat on the floor and your buttocks near the front of the seat.
  2. Gently roll your shoulders forward as you roll your hips and your lower spine back. Feel the weight move backward on your "sit" bones.
  3. Now straighten up slowly. Pull your shoulders back as your hips and lower spine rock forward, arching your back.
  4. Repeat 8 to 12 times, gently rocking your pelvis backward and forward.
