If you're having issues with your squats try doing a proper warm up to loosen up your hips.
Malasana pose aka “the squat”(breath and sit in the position for at least 20 sec)
Side squat
Deep Lunge
Pigeon pose
Try to move smoothly when transitioning between each exercise. Spend some time in each pose and get comfortable. Do the circuit as many times as it takes for you to get warmed up. I suggest doing it at least 2-3 times.
