Engaging the Pelvic Diaphragm and Perineal Body for Abdominal Support

A clue for me in the 1960s, when I was working with dancers in New York, is that the more professional and skilled the dancers were, the more urogenital problems were emerging from all this tightening of the belly, rather than engaging the pelvic diaphragm for support. Now I see it with people who practice yoga.

Explore how your pelvic diaphragm and perineal body support the abdomen in this short video.
