This is an Iyengar Yoga Sequence for Beginners. @Yoga with Lin and Leo have changed the way we work due to the Covid-19 situation. We hope to be posting more frequently, but we will be teaching individually.

This yoga sequence, taught by Leo, is a shortened version of one of the virtual classes we are teaching at the Maidstone Yoga Centre, which is closed during this outbreak of Coronavirus. If you would like access to the full class, CLICK THIS LINK TO REGISTER AT THE CENTRE. https://www.iyengar-yoga.co.uk/ YOUR FIRST CLASS IS FREE when booking. We have a Zoom discussion for those who want to join us.

This sequence is Beginners yoga, (for those who know the basics of the subject) but we will also be posting Complete Beginners Yoga routines, (for those who are new to the subject), Improvers classes, (for those who are working on their inversions and deepening their practice), and short Intermediate seqeunces, (for those who have an established, mature practice and are ready to tackle some of the more challenging poses).

This sequence comprises the following poses:
Upavistha Konasana - WIde angled seated pose
Urdhva Hastasana in Dandasana - Arms raised in Staff pose
Setu Bandha - Bridge Pose
Parvatasana in Vajrasana - Mountain arms in Thunderbolt pose.
Urdhva Hastasana in VIrasana - Arms raised in Hero Pose
Savasana on support - Corpse pose on a bolster

You need your mat, a belt and either a bolster or foam pads, , and maybe a blanket.
If you find any of the poses difficult, you can look the poses up in our Yoga Pose Directory, which we are adding to all the time.These tutorials will teach the poses in more detail and sometimes with extra props.

Yoga is not a sport but regular practice of yoga sequences can improve fitness levels. Practiced correctly, yoga will stretch muscles and strengthen joints, as well as helping with mental and physical wellbeing.
