hmm. so, i used to take west coast swing lessons and i think a particular thing our instructor told us to do did something weird to my hip posture
Conversation
he told us to stick out out butts more than we expected and i think the way i did that put my hips at a weird angle. now when i walk too much i reliably get pain in my lower back

i *think* what he intended for us to do is stick out the *base of our spines* back? i'm experimenting with doing that + tucking my tailbone while walking and it feels less painful and more comfortable but idk how to maintain it

doesn't sound like a sensible thing to do under normal conditions so I assume it's some dance specific thing...

the intention was to help us glide more effortlessly while walking, iirc he implied this was better for walking too but eric can correct me on that
