YOGA FOR BEGINNERS Part 1

[DynastyRiderez]

Does anybody else get dizzy from standing back up after being down?

[senoner90]

i'm quite sure she's dutch

[cotiaux]

I decided to really get serious with fitness. And I am thinking of adding Yoga. Thank you for this video. I can do it alone and get comfortable before I decide to attend a class.

[lewisleeming]

Thank you very much! :)

[EighteenPearls]

Thank you so much for your video! It's very helpful :-)

[JolisaLovesYou]

[rafattacksable]

i am so unflexible my legs are killing me.

[LifeDreamerM]

Ey, this is what my health teacher told us to do! Lol, it worked great and after doing this yoga, I felted better.

[jacarandas82]

Amazing video,thank you.

[mollyosaka]

This is great! Thank you so much. It helps a lot!

[downundercolour]

Check out our horse doing yoga! I submitted it as a video response, if it gets approved :-)

[jksonny]

Wow. I am on my 2nd day of yoga (using a DVD as a guide) and I had no idea what a great workout it is. I was sweating within the first 5 minutes but was relatively pleased with my balance and endurance.

[geralynnow]

Terrific for beginners, thank you! Geralyn Crimmins

[Izz06221]

[cuckos95]

Very nice, thanks for posting!

[xxjessiexxgg]

can you really lose weight by doing yoga everyday day

[rainbeaumars]

Go yoga!

[zOMGLaserGunzPewPew]

I love the way dutch people say "s" it's like shhh beginnersh

[Nikeguy1993]

Nice

[sexxibhaddgirl]

I love your Yoga its easy to handle if you actually listen to what is given:)))

I just started Yoga in about 3 days ago

[AwkwardNotes]

came here for a stress reliever for finals this week.

[laurkar243]

[McKennezie]

[McKennezie]

love yoga, i'm inventing my own moves now

[McKennezie]

[kimzieg]

perfect study break. these videos are going to help me survive finals.

[TheSundayDelight]

is it ok for a guy to do yoga? because i run long distances and i would like to be more flexible. i don't want to be called gay for doing it lol

[billyjean2310]

leuk! Danku Esther:)

[rubyunicorneater]

i don't get it, well i do,but i don't.

[DonSelwashington]

She is sooo dutch

[WishfulFancy]

Ouch that hurt

[yogaexercise]

I'm from India. I've mastered Hatha Yoga Postures in which I've more than 30yrs experience now. I like this video too.

[ChristopherMinHK]

This is undoubtedly one of the best yoga video courses around. If, like me, you are combining yoga with a weight-loss regime you might want to try Maqui berry - very effective and 12 times more powerful than Acai Berry.

[serkann2008]

Thanks. it was very helpfull

[eeprilelina]

nederlands?

[HanzSygnal]

Yoga folks always got incred posture.

[wildirishmic]

is it necessary to warm up first?

[Domkingofsk8]

@wildirishmic I was wandering the same. I felt too stiff

[dingleberrys09]

yoga is amazing, and ur a great teacher.

[Youngminded4eva]

from standing, the basic mounted pose, what do you mean pull up your knees and thighs? Like flex my thighs? Thank you

[scottmw90]

I found changeanything. com to be very helpful in creating detailed plans to reach my diet goals. I highly recommend it! You can use my coupon code "change2" to get a free membership

[KillTheKillers1]

When I do the Downward dog pose, I cant get my back straight.. its always curved up what do I do?

[101Arisha]

@KillTheKillers1 keep your back straight before you do it and when you bend down try and grab your toes first. after you loosen your muscles it will be easier to do it

[1ghostronin]

ooh Irish, I might learn yoga from you :)

[MrBurgundy76]

awesome, i just started doing yoga. how long and how many times do we do these beginning poses for?

[futtbuckr]

Yoga by goldmember

[SamBuckleProject]

Esther,

Thank you for posting; this is truly a most beautiful experience. Your yoga practice helped with the cleansing of cellular tissue that had built up emotional memory stored with in your body. The yoga practice helped you opened up the heart chakra. When this happened I didn't hold back, and felt the spine snake freeing itself from my infuence . A most wonderful experience. I had this happened to me after my first year of yoga practice, and it has been different ever since.

Namaste

[JJlizzable]

Dutchy haha omg



[suzu1982]

i've got arthritis so i really wanted to try yoga to help increase flexibility and strength in my joints, but i only got about half way through this routine before i had to stop. this is a comment on MY fitness level, NOT a criticism on the routine. i will be trying again though, so wish me luck! :) S*

[Bonnielieby]

Thank you Esther, is very instructive! I´m a Yoga teacher, but I live in Argentine and I want to live in USA the next year, and I need to prepare my English vocabulary. Your videos are help me. Kisses!!!

[alisacantir]

are you an immigrant ?? The english isnt best but the proggrams are best !!!))))))

[alisacantir]

are u an immigrant ?? The english isnt best but the proggrams are best !!!))))))

[alisacantir]

are u an immigrant ?? The english isnt best but the proggrams are best !!!

[MermaidBlueFins]

@alisacantir Well duh. Her accent gives it away.

[kyayaki]

@alisacantir stfu, if you dont like it take your rude ass and go find another yoga teacher you bum

[SquishedButterfly]

@alisacantir Her English is excellent. Your own English grammar isn't exactly marvelous. I imagine your Dutch is even worse.

[futtbuckr]

I'm learning this to improve my boarding. Melon grabs and methods will be so much fun when I'm dahlsim status. @erclr great street fighter reference.

[teewoods]

I gave up after 5mins too hard and I cant do it as I am not flexible as I have too much muscle. I guess it was worth a try but I might as well stick with what I am good at and thats lifting heavy weights, I would never be flexible!

[chewyeng]

hello. u are awesome! i enjoyed ur yoga lessons especially this one! even though i don't know whether i hv done it correctly but i follow every step u did nicely! hopefully yoga help to tone up my body.

[TheMrscupcakequeen]

[Kyandros]

LOL people she is DUTCH, and from HOLLAND. Trust me, I'm a Dutch person.

[ShlomitAsher]

[RaynaOfSunshine]

Your voice is lovely :D

[adverbtoo]

I'm a beginner at yoga and your videos are very very informative and thorough. Thank you for teaching your gift.

[tamrikoable]

i have a question. when should we do yoga? in the morning? evening? or..?

[tracytracy20]

Thanks for the video. I do want to start some yoga lesson since I was so lacked of exercises. :D

[gwen2012]

super chill!

Voelt echt heerlijk om even 10 min pauze te nemen van mn schoolopdracht en dan de oefeningen te doen.

straks ook nog even voor het slapen gaan!

Dank je wel esther! Je hebt me dik 100Euro uitgespaard voor een sportkaart =D

[starlastarlove]

Thank you, very helpful, it was really nice to do this :)

[MiiViiDaEreSTu]

this is for beginners? :/ I can't do this!!! :(

[dandanchicken]

@MiiViiDaEreSTu I've never done yoga before, and I didn't think it was too horribly difficult. I guess we have to just keep practicing. :-/

[vivanesca]

@MiiViiDaEreSTu me neitheeer

[MORBIDslushie]

I have a question. Is it normal for a person to be mostly unbalanced and extremely shaky during the poses or am i doing something wrong?

[yogatic]

@MORBIDslushie In the beginning that would be normal enough. Keep practicing it and you will be more balanced and less shaky soon.

[azkajawaid]

@yogatic How often do we have to repeat these particular steps?

[efirefly]

@MORBIDslushie Yes, it is. Yoga helps with balance and strength over time. You may also find that a class with a good instructor who will help you focus on body positioning would help. While videos are great, they can't help you know that your feet, back, etc., are really positioned correctly. Once you've gotten some of those basics, then the video becomes even more effective.

[traciemarie92]

@MORBIDslushie Your problem could also be that your core or stomach muscles aren't tight. If your core muscles are tight, you have more balance and control over your body.

[LudwigMendelssohn]

@MORBIDslushie It helps if you lose weight. Yoga is easier when you're thin. Plus, everyone in the class will be more likely to enjoy looking at you if you're not obese.

[serkann2008]

go ahead



[isabelleme926]

@MORBIDslushie I just started yoga and i' shaky too, my teacher said it's normal! :)

[Omigodable]

@MORBIDslushie Or die trying.. -)

[RoseKatie123]

wtf is she saying?

[supersophietje11]

kan je alsjeblieft ook filmpjes maken in het nederlands?

[xxALBooSxx]

amm to old .. im outa here ..

im gonna search for younger lady ..

[nonaninuneno]

do I have to stretch before I start like any other sports?

[YouKnowYouLoveGG]

You're Dutch! I can hear from your accent!

[YouKnowYouLoveGG]

You're Dutch! I can hear from your accent! :D

[1xXxIceGirlxXx1]

i did this for like one week then my knees started to hurt badly when i sit on my knees and bend them  .. this isnt normal , right ?

[lutzjake135]

@1xXxIceGirlxXx1 it is normal, trust me. let your body rest a little between poses and have one day a week were you do not do any yoga and just let your body rest. rest is the best thing for your body while doing yoga. remember not to over work your body or you will hurt all the time. hope that helps you :)

[MsTreysongz1]

@1xXxIceGirlxXx1 yes it's normal ( ithink ) it happen to me just get a soft mat or douple towel

[paigeyXT]

Thank you this video was fantastic :)

[rupydisease]

Thank you, this has been great and educational for us beginners. It helps to remove fear of whether one can do this or not, and encouraged me to give it a try!

[xSve]

woman of my dreams

[whatever1399]

great workout for me to do in the morning before school

[mykooleffects]

way to hard :(

[Phimmmm]

I shake like a leaf doing these poses! Fairly normal for a beginner though I guess?

[Nerodri01]

is this for beginners??

[MsShadylady100]

Is this good for increasing your height ? 

[TheBlurgy]

@MsShadylady100 It's impossible to increase your height sorry =(, unless you wear high heals xD

[DENlERU]

@MsShadylady100 Now I don't have a definite answer to your question but I do know that there are some stretches that make you produce more growth hormones. You should be able to find more information, just google it.

[itsmelanieeeee]

@MsShadylady100 Contrary to what the above answer said, yoga can help you stretch and strengthen your muscles. It works on postural muscles which helps you to sit taller and straighter. Don't expect it to stretch you out 3 or 4 inches, but maybe an inch or two depending on your current postural status.

[timtom099]

@yogatic how long should i be doing each position for?

[MsShadylady100]

Is this good to increase height?

[EnterTheRatRace]

How to know you're a beginner and know you need to be more flexible: you struggle at this. Epic Fail.

[ZacBrownBandLovers2]

i heard her back pop



[MrZinbaa3]

I Like't thanks for this nice lessen

[MrNewhightech]

this helped me a lot ====> yogaera.info

[BarefootArizona]

Dang, I gotta find me a yoga girl. YOWSA!

[lyris1]

That was easier for me to do than another video I saw, but I still have trouble understanding some of the instructions and relating the poses on screen to my own body... this is my first time...

[LovelyCrush12]

Ehh! Nederlander!

[TheJennifer0012]

i do yoga 30 min a day give my program a look on my channel :)

[zhukov43]

I'm a new subscriber thank you for making the videos...

[AMELIAEMOGIRL]

merci!!!!!!!!!

[SuperNada2020]

You are great, Esther, I love your videos! They make me so relaxed and relieve me from stress.

[PunkasFuck007]

This kind of yoga is what is actually called asanas, or postures. It's not real yoga (understanding of the universe and the nature of action and when one should practice inaction).

[aboutyogablog]

Nice video, like it :-)

[fliesenfuzzi]

If you didn't know it already:

THIS is the best yoga series on youtube!

[kane123369]

@fliesenfuzzi I doubt that my friend

[Doctorsnickerz]

[themastersammyjay]

[yoyamemom]

[princess17374]

[iFlute4life]

My computer paused at one point and i was stuck doing the same one pose for like five minuets XD

[sugarcrazy1025]

@iFlute4life silly goose.

[Redflowers9]

@iFlute4life ha ha classic

[silvertink88]

@iFlute4life i got a laugh out of that lol

[cheerleader4498]

@iFlute4life I bet you felt that one! :D

[pith191]

@iFlute4life lmao

[1ghostronin]

@iFlute4life lol

[CrysalisHooper]

@iFlute4life That is Hilarious, I literally laughed out loud

[zachgrossman26]

I'd hit.



[MsPanda1031]

@zachgrossman26 she looks about 5000 grime

[shakskoul]

What if I can't touch the floor with straight legs? :$ 

[576755]

Great vid! Thanks, 

[777IDin]

hi please watch to save the planet

and the truth beind religion

meaning of life, etc

[thehappyhippyo0]

ok for everyone whos all like this is to hard waahhhhhh, im a chunky 15 year old this isnt that hard. I can barely sit cross legged cause my hips are so bad and I can do all this just fine. Quit thinking about your cake and cookies every time you try it and you'll be just fine.

[chichibang5]

Yoga body is hot hot hot!

[punkgirlrocks2332]

i have always wanted to be in gymnastics i hope this helps me get more flexible

[melissabadeend]

Ja, grote kans dat ze Nederlands is =)

[Maikki127]

volgens mij is ze nederlands...

[sandra666]

Great video. I haven't done yoga in years and boy am I out of shape. Question while doing dog pose and when I got up I got dizzy. What did I do wrong?

[pittchick411]

@sandra666 You probably got up too quickly or weren't breathing evenly.. I'm not an expert or anything but that's what it sounds like.

[MyMustaches]

@sandra666 When you get up to fast your blood doesn't flow as fast as you got up so it causes you to get dizzy it happens to me all the time when i get up from laying down. no big deal you did nothing wrong.

[bigshawn1972]

Yoga hurts!......but I like it.



[ro2a93]

that was great

[ElaBuElo97]

Fantastic, simple and easy great for beginners...

[crazychikn]

Only people complaining about it being hard are fat people who cant bend over without chocolate bars falling out of their folds of fat

[576755]

@crazychikn I found it difficult and I'm not fat. But my back is messed up and I have breathing problems.. 

[Glowurmgirl]

What a great video,thanks so much for making it.

[bcrichguitar1st]

103 people are fat

[WereAllMammals]

i feel so good right now after i did this:)) xx

[FileSpnR]

I really like the video. for a real beginner like me is is just right; easy to understand and do. thank you for posting it. I'm doing this one and part two every day :)

[waterfallphantic39]

I made it to 4:27 i never did yoga before but i do know i cannot do that.. well i can but better call 911 lol

[ConnieAHillSmith]

This is GREAT, exactly what I've been looking for! Keeps it short and accessible so I can realistically fit a small session in every day without imposing on my time and other responsibilities too much. I also like the additional sessions for when I'm ready to stretch my wings! I'm a supple-ish 30-something novice who's tried yoga a few times before but never managed to keep at it - then again, I haven't found something like this video before! Thanks Esther - Hopefully this time...

[ChainX]

Good story: Not possible to do this on carpet. Just slipping around like a goofball.

[clevamonkey]

JUST GOT A MCDONALDS ADD ON A YOGA VIDEO, BIT OF A CONTRADICTION, BE GOOD TO YOUR BODY THEN EAT A NASTY BURGER HMM.

[spasbeast]

@clevamonkey mine was a cheeetos ad. i thought that was bad, but mcdonalds? come on! ud think theyd have an ad for granola or sommething

[ToniChambers1993]

Is it normal to feel sick?

[bronze95]

I'm a complete beginner and watching these videos literely make me want to give up! HOW IS SHE THAT FLEXIBLE!

[ChainX]

@bronze95

Practice. 

[LovelyBones0Fan]

This is amazing. It truly helped with my poor posture. LOL.

[EshanaKerala]

Thanks so much for the video, just got more inspired on how to teach my beginners class.

[CJay4Oh5]

this is great, these poses are some of the ones i did when i had yoga, but there was more too. but still it got me back into the gist of yoga :)

[TheMunekiNeko]

What type of yoga do you do?

[Dablkwid0w2008]

loool At least you guys are trying dont give up!

[veeinwonderland]

what the hell does she say at 1:30 ???

[22brainy]

@Towndrunk26er She is blatantly Dutch, do you know what an Irish person sounds like?

[bayardhb]

immunics

I cured HERPES -- lip AND genital – with a non-physical form of yoga called immunics -- I've been doing immunics since 1993 -- I haven't had the flu – or a cold – since I cured the herpes – I've seen people cure cancer with this

I've also done at least some physical yoga every day for 30 years now -- I do yoga – and immunics – in short bursts – THROUGHOUT THE DAY – keep myself feeling great ALL DAY – you can FRIEND me on Facebook – Bayard Henry Barnes -- 813/672-3419

[CLIFFxMUSTAINE]

for begginers my ass, these moves are NOT easy to start with

[MrBlayneRs]

Ok so I spoke to soon and didn't finish that pose (there are variations) now I'm fine lol sorry.
