Start with a Yoga Intro Series

Lately a few friends have asked me where to find a good yoga class if you’ve never done yoga before. I LOVE questions like these! I’m always excited when people are interested in yoga, especially newbies. Is this how missionaries feel when they find someone willing to listen?

If you’re new to yoga it’s really important to look for a good intro series with an instructor who is experienced in teaching beginners. An intro series lets you discover the practice at a slow pace in a fun and supportive setting, where the person next to you is not powering through his or her 50th Chaturanga. And committing to a series of classes forces you to go back even if you feel confused after your first class. It can take some time to get the hang of it :) (You want me to put my foot where? While focusing on my breath? Huh?)

There’s a great 6-week Introduction to Yoga series coming up at Yogalife if you’re here in Seattle:

Sunday Feb 21st 4:00-5:15pm

  1. yes! me too! worst headaches for the rest of the day. dehydration?

  2. Yes i agree that Yoga is a wonderful way of life that people from all walks of life can benefit from. Personally I don’t have mush time to do as much Yoga as I would like to. But without fail i attempt everyday to at least do my 12 rounds of sun salutation, and it keeps me feeling great all through the day
