Grab a strap and take it step by step backing off where you need to and most importantly, listening to your body. This video was shot at BYS Yoga in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania with Laura Early, co-founder of LOCAL Magainze. I teach at BYS Yoga weekly and the schedule can be found at www.bys-yoga.com. Ready to begin your yoga excursion? Remember that the practice is just that, it is not a race, rather a marathon and you should listen to your body by taking the practice slowly. Our goal is to practice until we're 90, so remember that when practicing a powerful and deep flow! Work with Hayley Beth Worthman via her YouTube channel to find Break It Down tutorials that will show you the proper and safe way of getting into yoga asana (postures). If you're new to yoga or consider yourself an advanced practitioner, this channel will give you the tools to introduce your practice into your daily routine or deepen it. The yoga asana aspect of the practice is only one part, so remember that your practice will ebb and flow, your flexibility and strength will differ from day to day, but as long as you breathe through it all, you're on the right track.
