Yoga for Beginners – Part 2

Hi everyone,

Here part 2 of the beginners series. Still focussing on standing poses! When you begin with yoga I think they are the core poses you need to learn first. Standing poses benefit your posture, they strengthen your legs and core, also they stretch your whole body. Basically they warm your body up and prepare your body for other asana’s, yoga poses.

The poses I demonstrate in this sequence are:

extended triangle pose / utthita trikonasana

extended side angle pose / utthita parsvakonasana

  • Thank-you so much Esther for making this site available to me. I am currently taking a beginners class but your explanations of all the poses are much more detailed. So I thank you for that.

  • Hi Esther,

    I’m 15 years old, and from England.
    I have just discovered your website, and already I’m finding it incredibly beneficial! (especially during this hectic and stressful exam period!)
    I just wanted to say thank you, really for taking the time to put up these videos, they are most definately the best on the web!
    I’m going to tell all my friends about this fantastic website.

    Also, I would like to ask you whether yoga is beneficial to weight loss. Do you have to do other aerobic workouts to work the heart? What do you recommend as a good combination with yoga for one my age?

    Thank you very much!!

    Love, Emily xx

  • Esther: I am a soccer player and am trying to become more flexible. When I first did yoga, I thought it was silly because of the meditation. But when I started doing the yoga for beginners with you, I loved it! Thanks a alot! Can you do a part 4?
