I'm starting a yoga class, what are some tips for beginners?
assistant
1. Start slowly and move at your own pace.
2. Make sure your clothing is loose and comfortable to move in.
3. Listen to your body and don’t push yourself too hard.
4. Use props such as yoga blocks, bolsters and straps to help with your form.
5. Breath deeply to relax your body and mind during the poses.
6. Focus on form rather than flexibility.
7. Don’t compare yourself to others in the class.
8. Have patience with yourself and the process.
9. Try to attend the same class with the same teacher each week.
10. Always finish each session with savasana, or relaxation pose.
