*If you are brand new to yoga, there are certain postures that are essential for you to learn so you can feel comfortable in a class or practicing on your own at home.
It’s not easy to narrow everything down since there are over 350+ positions in the physical yoga practice, but these poses can start you off on the right path. If you do each one of these for 5-8 breaths, it also creates a great beginner’s yoga program for you to do every day.
Here are a few basic Yoga poses that can help you get started:
Adho Mukho Svanasana (Downward Facing Dog Pose)
Tadasana (Mountain Pose) .
Vrikshasana (Tree Pose) .
Trikonasana (Triangle Pose) .
Bhujangasana (Cobra Pose) .
Kursiasana (Chair Pose) .
Naukasana (Boat Pose) .
Paschimottanasana.
