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

I think maybe you interpreted it as a pelvic tilt but really when I teach (not west coast swing, ymmv) when I talk about sticking hips back I mean change how much bend you put in your hips vs your knees.

consider: the spine can be "straight" in both A and B but in B the hips are "further back"

yeah this looks right, i tilted my pelvis too far and it was weird :/
