Take a look at how yoga beginners practice yoga

1Beginners are best guided by someone

For beginners, I suggest you find a yoga studio near home or company, convenient for personal guidance and convenient for persistence. If there are no conditions or restrictions nearby, then look for online beginner courses, learn slowly, but the premise is that you have certain self-safety awareness.

Note that:

1Most yoga studios offer free trial classes and trials, you can try them, if you don't like them, you can switch to your chosen one.

2Online course learning should pay attention to your body feedback, because there is no professional person to guide you, beginners may harm their own bodies.

3Pay attention to exchanges and ask for advice, you can consult yoga teachers or yoga practitioners around you, they are willing to share their experience with you, helping you avoid detours.

Understand your yoga you practice:

You can find it online:

1You need to understand the yoga school, precautions, what you need to prepare for your yoga practice

2Preview the yoga you want to learn in advance, so that you can enter the state faster, identify and solve problems in advance, and avoid small problems during exercise. At the same time, avoid constant watching without practicing

Note: But don't keep watching and not practicing, we are practicing yoga, not watching yoga

Before practicing, we should avoid

Note that:

1Do not eat a big meal before practicing yoga to avoid indigestion. Try not to eat within 2 hours after practicing yoga

2Try to wear yoga socks or barefoot, avoid wearing shoes

3Drink water before and after exercise, and pay attention to intervals

4Don't take a bath immediately after class, need half an hour to rest before bathing

2Warm-up and Stretching

Warm-up:

A key aspect of yoga practice is to do a warm-up at the beginning, such as simple poses like the Sun Salutation

Warm-up exercise helps the body adapt to subsequent larger stretches and endurance movements

Warm-up time should be 5-10 minutes, and you can start practicing when your body is comfortable

Note that:

Many beginners feel that warming up is unnecessary, I suggest you don't warm up, you won't be able to practice

The importance of warming up you can see in our previous articles

Stretching:

Don't give up stretching after exercise, it helps your body gradually calm down, allowing your body to gradually adapt from fast to slow, preventing your legs and feet from cramping and twitching after exercise

Note that:

After-exercise stretching and during exercise stretching are not the same, after-exercise stretching is to make your body gradually calm down, not intensely

3Posture suits yourself

Many beginners, in order to pursue beautiful posture, are easily accustomed to taking on difficult posesThis is not feasible

1Everyone's physical condition is different, and the progress of practice is different, don't think about 'fat girl' all at once

2It's good to have a beautiful posture, but it's more important to be healthy, you need to choose a posture that suits your body

3Slow down the practice of yoga, if you practice too quickly, you will not notice the signals from your body, or you will be too late to receive them

Note: Don't rush, if it's difficult to do, don't force it, learn to make progress graduallyOne diligence, one harvest

Try + effort + persistence = victory

Never seriously practice yoga
