30 Days of Yoga: The Beginner Series with Ritesh Sheth

An introduction to your instructor, answers to common beginner's questions, and tips for making the most of your 30 Days.

In today's class we'll lay the groundwork for our everyday practice, focus on good form and posture, and learn some of the basic asanas in an introduction to hatha yoga.

In today's sequence we will build off of what we have learned, and get the body moving and flowing in a vinyasa-style class with several variations of Sun Salutations.

Today's gentle yoga class will include all floor-based asanas, and we will learn to direct our energy deep into the earth in order to feel more grounded and centered.

Get ready to sweat in today's power yoga class. We will flow through the asanas we know at a faster pace and add some variations to get the heart pumping and the energy moving.

Today's sequence will be slower paced and we will focus on the breath. Building on our everyday practice, we will turn our attention and awareness inward, focusing less on form and more on flow.

The class today will be slow, but it will test our mental focus and build our muscular strength. We will come into the asanas we know and hold them for longer periods of time, pushing our limits and expanding our boundaries.

Today we will gift our body with rest and relaxation. We will do a few gentle stretches, followed by a healing yoga nidra, and end with a peaceful guided meditation.

Learn to control your life energy (kundalini or sushumna) with several pranayama breathing techniques in today's class. We'll warm the body and clear the mind with our daily practice before we come to the mat for pranayama.

In today's sequence we will flow through our practice turning our attention and awareness to the seven chakra centers of the body. We will use the asanas we have learned to activate different chakras, and learn about their subtle energies.

Today's class will be a culmination of what we have learned so far. We'll follow our daily sequence, using our breath to direct the flow of energy within the body and spirit. For those feeling up to the challenge, we will practice several bonus asanas.
