YOGA WITH DJ

I used to wake up stiff every single morning. Tight hips, a stuck spine, sore shoulders — it felt like my body needed an hour just to “turn on.” 😩

Turns out, it wasn’t just me. Modern life keeps us sitting, scrolling, and still all day, and it shows up the moment we get out of bed.

This 10-move flow is what changed things for me. 👇

Each move has 3 levels — Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced — so start wherever your body is today. Do 10 slow, controlled reps at your level before moving to the next move.

Morning or evening, it doesn’t matter — just move.

✨ The 10 moves:
1️⃣ Deep Squat to Stand
2️⃣ Wide-Legged Forward Fold to Spine Rotation
3️⃣ Deep Squat to Thoracic Rotation
4️⃣ Knee Outs to Hip Openers
5️⃣ Deep Squat Calf Raises
6️⃣ Cossack Squat (Adductors & Hips)
7️⃣ Pancake Pose (Spine Length & Pelvic Alignment)
8️⃣ Deep Hip Opener – Squat Flexion
9️⃣ Deep Squat to Hamstring Stretch
🔟 Rocking – Spine Flexion

Pick your level. Do your 10 reps. Move with me. 🙌
