Here’s our top 5 tips for practicing and mastering hard yoga poses at home.
Having a dedicated space for yoga will make practicing at home so much easier. Try to find a space to unroll your mat that’s quiet and peaceful, with plenty of space around to move your body freely.
Starting out, all you need is a yoga mat. Try to invest in a non-slip mat to avoid any accidents or injuries! It’s worth paying a little more for a high quality mat that will last you a long time.
When you have a yoga teacher, they’ll help you in knowing your boundaries and preventing injury. Practicing at home leaves this responsibility up to you. Be mindful of areas like knees, neck and joints which can be vulnerable.
No matter how far you get in your pose and practice, always remember to give your body the relaxation it deserves with savasana.
Keeping a regular practice at home will help you in mastering those tricky poses. You won’t be able to do the hardest variations if you only practice yoga every once in a while. Try to stay on top of practicing often, set yourself realistic goals and times.
