One of the great things about yoga is that you don't really need anything to practice yoga. But we do recommend the following to support and enhance your practice.
1. YogaBasics.com Premium Membership The Our Premium Membership section makes it easy to start a yoga practice with 25 yoga sequences, streaming audio, bigger pictures and tons more. Take membership tour 2. Yoga Books These are the best books we have found for beginning students: Yoga, Mastering the Basics Yoga Zone's Introduction to Yoga 3. Yoga DVDs These are the best videos we have found for beginning students: Basic Yoga Workout for Dummies A.M./P.M. Yoga for beginners Kripalu Yoga: Gentle Yoga For Beginners Yoga Journal's: Beginning Yoga Step by Step 4. Yoga CDs These are the best audio instructional CDs for beginning students: Drops of Nectar: Yoga Relaxation for Rejuvenation and Healing Yoga Sanctuary 5. Yoga Mat A yoga mat provides padding as well as a non-slip surface to practice on. A classic yoga mat is best for beginners, but upgrading to a thicker mat is recommended if you are practicing on a wood floor. 6. Yoga Props Yoga props are very helpful when starting yoga. Use a yoga block to stabilize standing poses, use a yoga strap to go stretch further in seated poses and use a bolster for restorative poses. 7. Yoga Music CDs Playing music during your yoga practice will help relax, focus and soothe. See our list of recommended music CDs here 0 Comments
