Carmen Hutt Movement

Carmen Hutt Movement Carmen has been practicing yoga on a daily basis for the past 15 years.

Her initial intrigue came after years of long distance running, looking for something softer, and on her initial trip to India in 2002 she tried yoga and was hooked. She took her initial ashtanga yoga teacher training (200 hr) with Brian Cooper in Edinburgh, Scotland, then spent long periods of time in India with Lino Miele ( Italy) and Rolf and Marcy Naukojat ( Goa). She has also completed week l

ong intensives with David Williams, David Swenson, Dharma Mittra, Ana Forrest, and Shiva Rea. She has since completed her advanced yoga teacher training ( 2015) and therapeutics with Hart Lazer ( Yoga Montreal), Pelvic Floor yoga teacher certification with Leslie Howard ( California), is a Functional Range Mobility Specialist ( FRC), and has most recently delved into the world of STOTT Pilates, having certified in Pilates Mat, Reformer, and Total Barre.

Administration and business orientation are not my forte ! They never taught me that in my Occupational Therapy Masters or my Pilates schooling .

Don’t expect it unless you actually take the time to learn that side of the biz !

Truth is in the pudding they say ….. legs is straps usually is one of a clients favorite moves as we can get so much sensations of stretch , flow and mobility. Oh and short spine ! Just glorious !

But turning around and putting your legs in the straps above the thighs can leave a client crying as their centre has to work overtime against the resistance ! There are so many different ways you can explore this- here I am on one leg . Even take the shoulder rests off for more range ( sucky pad may be advised under pelvis).

Personally more my jam !

Classes starting back up in September ! Be sure to join my newsletter over at www.carmenhutt.com to get on the offerings that will drop in two weeks .

Client feedback is so important as a teacher !

It can really light you up and make you want to be better in delivering and helping . Also so useful in knowing how to assist students in how to grow within themselves and how you can show up to be 💯

Hip extension is the movement of bringing the thigh behind the body (or lifting the pelvis over fixed feet in a bridge). To do that well, your body coordinates several muscles—including the gluteus maximus, hamstrings, and trunk—to produce and control the movement.

Adding a bridge push-out changes the challenge.

As the heels slide away, the hamstrings work harder to control knee extension while continuing to contribute to hip extension. Meanwhile, the glutes and centre help maintain pelvic position and stability throughout the movement.

Rather than chasing muscle “burn,” think about movement quality:
• Smooth, controlled motion
• A steady pelvis
• Even pressure through both feet
• Maintaining the bridge as the legs move

Training movements—not just muscles—helps build strength that’s transferable to walking, climbing stairs, running, lifting, and everyday life.
