Yoga Foundations | How to Vinyasa for All Levels

https://youtu.be/t1uCRwu6EAk?si=gidnnORvrifoJvs6Yoga Foundations | How to Vinyasa for All Levels Join Christa in this breakdown of the fundamental poses that make up a vinyasa and how to flow through these safely as we build our yoga practice. ‘Vinyasa’ is Sanskrit word that means ‘to place in a special way’. In a vinyasa class, you can expect to flow from one pose to another through dynamic transitions and there is an emphasis on connecting breath to movement. Each pose is placed a particular way to ensure there is a continuous flow of movement and breath. You might have already heard yoga teachers cueing, ‘take your vinyasa’ which means to move through your plank/chaturanga dandasana into to your upward-facing dog (urdhva mukha svanasana) and then downward facing dog (adho mukha svanasana). This is used to connect different sequences in a class or to switch from one side to another. This tutorial looks at each step of a vinyasa, how to connect these seamlessly and includes different options. It is ideal for beginners and also more experienced practitioners as most group yoga classes do not have the time to explore each step in sufficient detail. This tutorial will build your confidence in performing a vinyasa independently and with the correct alignment, helping you to build a strong foundation for your practice.
