Seven foundational poses create a solid base for any yoga practice.

• Tadasana (Mountain Pose): The starting point for many sequences, teaching you how to stand with intention.
• Adho Mukha Svanasana (Downward Dog): Press your hips up and back to feel the stretch from your calves to your shoulders.
• Balasana (Child's Pose): A resting posture where you sit back on your heels and fold forward.
• Virabhadrasana I (Warrior I): Step one foot forward, bend the knee, and reach your arms overhead.
• Warrior II (Virabhadrasana II): Gaze over your front hand to build concentration and stability.
• Bhujangasana (Cobra Pose): Press your pelvis down as you rise to protect your lower back.
• Vrksasana (Tree Pose): A standing balance that improves focus and ankle stability.

Practising these seven poses regularly builds the strength and flexibility you need for more advanced asanas.

Hatha yoga is often the best choice for beginners because it moves at a slower pace and focuses on foundational poses.

A few reasons Hatha stands out for beginners:

• The slower pace lets you correct mistakes before they become habits.
• Breathing techniques are woven in, making each session feel both physical and meditative.
• Modifications with props let you practise safely even if you're not naturally flexible.

When Hatha feels comfortable, Vinyasa offers a natural next step with continuous movement.
