Yoga postures and position you should learn

    Now as you start practicing yoga you will find out all of the different kinds of yoga poses and stretches out there. That could lead to a serious problem when trying to learn something new and that's called information overload. Thankfully you choose to read this post today because I have some yoga poses that you should learn first. This will be a good starting point as you advance through all of the different yoga practices. So sit back, pop some popcorn and get ready to learn the foundation of your yoga knowledge.

The first pose that you should work on is both easy and simple which is a perfect combination for a beginner that's starting to learn yoga. What makes this move so simple for you to do is that you body is probably use to it or has been put in this position in the past. It may be some time ago but just think back to when you was little and you set Indian style. I know that was probably a long time ago for most so do a little stretching before attempting to do this yoga stretch. Now to do this move you just start off by sitting on a smooth comfortable surface. Then bring your legs into your thighs while bending your knees. Straight out your arms reaching to your toes, then use your hands to keep your feet locked together. Remember to keep your chess out while keeping your back perpendicular to the ground. You can further your stretch by bouncing your legs up and down this will stretch your thighs out. This is a great way to get started yoga stretching but that's not it because I got four more great one coming up next. This pose is called the butterfly pose.

Now this post is more easier then the previous butterfly yoga pose. You can do this pose from all sorts of different positions it can either standing up, sitting down, or laying do relaxing in a bed. It works great to tone and build some strength inside of your arms. Raising your arm in a straight motion will help you to breathe more smoothly because you are expanding your lungs allowing your lungs to capture more air. Basically the only thing that you have to do is raise your arms straight into the air vas if you were trying to touch the sky. Continue to do these reps until you count up to around ten then move on the next I have for you. By the way this yoga pose is officially called the straight arm yoga pose.

Here is yet another simple and easy yoga pose that even a beginner can master right away. This yoga move has to be down from a sitting down position. Sit down with your legs pointed straight out and remember to always practice before you decide to try any of these moves. Lean your body forward and grab your toes, this is where the stretching will start to begin. As you are touching to touch your toes remember that it is very important that you keep your legs straight and not bend them. This will help tone the muscles in your legs and thighs as well as your arms. Doing this is  in reps during a yoga session should build up that strength and tone your legs and arms. There you go yet another great way to practice yoga. Don't stop reading right now because I have two more excellent yoga poses that you can do as a beginner.

If you thought that all of the other poses was easy to get into wait until you here about the next one I have for you to try. This yoga pose if known as the staff pose, now this pose looks like putting your body in the form of the letter L. Some things that you will want to remember is to keep your back straight while your legs are stretched out. You will want to keep the bend in both of your legs to a minimal if not it will decrease the amount of stretch your legs will endure.

All of the other yoga poses I introduce was easy and simple to do so this one will be no different. In order for you to get off to a get start with yoga you must build your foundation of yoga by learning the basics first. I hope these poses will give you a basic understanding of yoga and what it is about. Now to get back to this move you lay on your back. Have your arms on the side of your body and pointed straight down as seen in the picture. Make sure each one of your legs are straight on the mat. Slowly lift each one of your legs into the air as you begin to lift you will notice the burn because your muscles are being used.

Now that you have your foundation of yoga poses down you should practice and master them then move on to others as you progress.
