Hip Opener workouts

Can anyone suggestion a great video that works the hip area? I'm feeling a lot of tightness in my hips lately.

Thanks!

I'd be interested in this, too! My hips are always tight.

My go-to is Baron Baptiste's Unlocking Athletic Power. It clocks in at under a half hour and I always feel great afterward. He also has a slightly shorter audio hip-focused practice in his Yoga Bootcamp Box, but UAP seems to do a slightly better job in not much more time.

The hip opener segment on Rodney Yee's AM Yoga for Your Week is one of my favorites. The DVD has five segments, each about 25 minutes long.

What about Tracie Long's Figure 30 Hips? Tracie is hit or miss with me, but I love this workout.
