we’ve identified five steps that help smooth this transition and maximize the benefits you’ll create from developing a long-lasting, at-home yoga practice.
Considering the options within your unique living space, choose a spot in your home where you feel relatively relaxed and undistracted. I say ‘relatively’ because everyone has different living arrangements and you may find it hard to find a quiet space in yours.
Although props are not necessary to practice yoga, in many classes you will find them extremely useful. If you plan to practice regularly, I would highly recommend getting, at minimum, a yoga mat, block and strap.
The ideal placement of your device is quite easy to figure out, but may take some trial and error. What works best for me is to place my laptop on a surface that is eye level when I’m seated, and have another spot that is one or two feet higher, where I can quickly move.
Do you know what style and difficulty level you are looking for? If so, use the filters on our Yoga Classes page, along with each class’s name and description, to find a suitable class. If not, use our Guide to the Types of Yoga to help you select your class.
Do you prefer to exercise in the morning, mid-day or after dinner? How long would you like each session to be and how often would you like to practice? Based on your answers, create a practice schedule that you can fit into your weekly routine.
