To work your outer left hip/buttocks, switch from left hand to left elbow on the floor and slightly twist your body so as to put pressure just in the right spot. Roll back and forth. Switch sides and repeat as needed.
WAIST While laying on your left side, position your left elbow on the yoga mat with your left leg stretched out and the right foot firmly planted behind your left leg. Slide the PROTO under your waist and roll back and forth. Balance yourself to establish the desired pressure. Switch to the right side as desired.
THIGHS & HAMSTRINGS For thighs, lay on your stomach and rest your elbows in front of you, shoulder length. With stretched out legs, cross one on top of the other. Use your arms in conjunction with your tiptoes to work thighs. You may have to reposition the PROTO to reach the entire length of your thigh. Switch thighs as needed.
