So if you’re on this page, you’re probably curious about understanding a little bit more about the specific asana poses, poses that you will be able to access through twisting, forward folds, balances, and so much more. The purpose of this page is to give you a little bit more information about what popular poses are, what the purpose and benefits of they are, and give you some photos and videos to use as references to begin to learn more and grow your practice just that much more!
While you’re reading these posts, it is important to understand that these poses come and go with time. Some days, I find myself in a perfect arm balance, on other days I’m struggling to even stand on foot. When reading, I encourage you to keep an open mind about the fact that these are not going to be accessible on the first time! Every pose, every posture, everything breathing exercise, all comes with time! The most important part is taking that time for yourself, whether it is 20 minutes in your kitchen or 90 minute class. If you practiced, you practiced, no matter what it looked like.
It is also important to understand that each pose does come with modifications. Many of the modifications will be photographed or videoed, but like I said, it will be different for everyone!! When you’re practicing in a classroom setting, many classes will follow the same style and sequences offering those modifications and variations. Always keep an open mind and remember each practice won’t be the same, but it is still the practice that counts!
I hope you enjoy these how to’s, I really enjoyed making them for you.
