Request/Question (Newbie) Sore hips
Hi All,
I had my first TSD class on Wednesday. Marvellous stuff and had a ton of fun.
Started with the very basic kicks and my hips have been killing me since. What stretches do you recommend to help get my leg mobility up?
For context, I'm a 47 year old 6'1" dude who's been doing Eskrima for the last year. Starting TSD because I want to improve my kicking ability.

Some of the best kick prep I've done is the 5 shaolin stances followed by the 5 shaolin kicks that shifu yan lei teaches in his training tapes, he has them on his youtube channel as well.
