I have done Yoga a couple times before, in class situations, but right now I am lacking in funds. I thought about getting started again with a dvd, but I am not sure what to select and again price is a concern. I don't want to spend so much money and get a dvd that I can't follow.
So, I thought I would go online. I know there are free video sources for Yoga beginners, but knowing so little I am turing to this knowledgable community to help suggest some sites that would offer reputable beginners Yoga. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I am once again grateful for this communities help.
Online Yoga
Re: Online Yoga
Good for you for getting into Yoga. It will improve your life.
Just start. It doesn't matter where you begin, as long as you begin. Find a good site and follow it.
If you are really involved in a stretch, you won't care about anything else. And you'll feel better afterwards.

Re: Online Yoga
AFAIK, there are no free online complete yoga workouts of high quality.
I would recommend buying a DVD.
To choose among many, you can:
- watch a preview on the instructor's website;
- read reviews on Amazon;
- watch fragments of workout on Youtube.
Good instructors give different workouts for different levels of your fitness.
As for me, I practice Stott Pilates for two years, and am very satisfied with it.

Re: Online Yoga
I’m far from an expert, but I can personally recommend this DVD set:

I’ve spent most of my time on ‘Yoga for Inflexible People’, but have recently started to dip into the other two. I have many injuries, a chronic pain condition, and had never done yoga before; I’ve had such a good experience with the above, I’ve ordered a more advanced DVD (to motivate me more) and I’m off to my first class today.
I also have a short routine that I do before sitting which I find an excellent way of settling the mind

Re: Online Yoga
Forgot about this site! I've found it to be a great resource: http://yoga.about.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
There's a 30 day beginners course too: http://yoga.about.com/od/beginningyoga/ ... nthone.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Hope it helps!

Re: Online Yoga
Wow, thank you all for the recommendations. I am eager to get into a full workout. I have just been doing what I can remember from the classes I took, but I feel I might be doing some of those wrong. This is a great start to developing further!
Re: Online Yoga
You can also go to YouTube and enter "Beginner's Yoga" - there are many good videos available.
Re: Online Yoga
That sounds like what I would wish to do. I want to take my time and not feel pressured by the progress of the rest of the class.micalhassi wrote:Well online yoga is getting famous due to economic situations. Many people suffer from shortage of funds. It is a good idea to do yoga at home through online. You can do this by purchasing DVD's or by you-tube web site. When you start it you have to decide a time period like 30 mints or 40 mints daily spend on it. I also do it at home and learn more because if there are any difficult trick i stop it and review again and again till i learned it.
Re: Online Yoga
There are plenty of yoga videos in the following website, on individual postures or classes. I quite like it so would recommend (and it's free!) :
http://www.doyogawithme.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
However, I would also recommend that you read about the postures - techniques, precautions, etc. - to protect your body as you practice at home. The yoga journal's website has a lot of articles in the section "poses" which i find very informative and useful.
