Step-by-step instructions

Follow these cues to master proper technique and stay safe through every rep.

  1. Step 1Setup
    • Choose a quiet, comfortable space with enough room to extend your body fully.
    • Use a yoga mat for cushioning and grip.
    • Wear comfortable clothing that allows full range of motion.
  2. Step 2Execution
    • Begin in a comfortable seated position with deep, diaphragmatic breathing.
    • Move through a warm-up sequence such as Cat-Cow or gentle twists.
    • Progress to standing poses, balances, and floor-based poses as appropriate.
    • Focus on maintaining proper alignment and breathing through each pose.
    • Hold each pose for 5–10 breaths or as directed by your practice.
  3. Step 3Cool Down
    • Transition to gentler poses and stretches.
    • End with Savasana (corpse pose) — lie on your back with arms at your sides, palms up.
    • Close your eyes and focus on deep breathing for 3–5 minutes.
    • Slowly bring awareness back to your body and sit up gently.
  4. Step 4Tips
    • Never force yourself into a pose — respect your body's limits.
    • Consistency is more important than intensity.
    • Use props like blocks and straps if needed to maintain proper form.
    • Breathe through your nose and coordinate movement with breath.
