KEY FEATURES
โ˜ฎ๏ธ Unlimited access to online course materials + content updates included with your one-time purchase.
โ˜ฎ๏ธ Fundamental Poses (Asanas): Learn common and foundational yoga postures, such as Mountain Pose (Tadasana), Downward-Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana), Child's Pose (Balasana), and Warrior II (Virabhadrasana II). The focus is on understanding the best form and feeing for your body, rather than achieving a particular aesthetic.
โ˜ฎ๏ธ Alignment: Significant attention is given to the instruction on how to enter, hold, and exit each pose. This assists to prevent injury and builds a healthy and sustainable practice from the ground up.
โ˜ฎ๏ธ Modifications and Props: Learn how to modify poses and utilize props. Props like blankets, blocks, and straps are used to enhance alignment and comfort.
โ˜ฎ๏ธ Breathing Techniques (Pranayama): The class introduces a basic breathing practice and guides poses with the intention to synchronize your breath with your movements. This is a crucial element for calming the mind, improving focus, and deepening the physical stretches.
โ˜ฎ๏ธ Mind-Body-Heart Connection: Beyond the physical aspects, this course develops body awareness and an understanding of the overall principles and philosophy of yoga (beyond just the physical poses) to apply in daily life.
Ideal for those that are new to yoga on the mat and are able to move from a seated position on the floor to standing. It is also wonderful for individuals returning to their practice after a break, or those who want to refine their understanding of the basic postures.
