[@thesweetpetes8961]

Oh wow I love this so much ❤️

[@paulajean4540]

As a yoga instructor, yoga is very personal. Everyone looks different, feels different things, and takes away different things. Also, people who are the least flexible tend to have the biggest benefits of yoga. People like me who are hypermobile can actually experience and exaggerate injuries or create injuries. So being a less than flexible person, you would likely see amazing things with a consistent yoga practice.

[@AGSBallTrophy]

Paula Jean yes! yoga is tends to be overlooked but is so beneficial as you get older!

[@vilw511]

Paula Jean is yoga better for flexibility than just stretching? can I do yoga after strength training?

[@paulajean4540]

@@vilw511 I think so, depending on the style as was highlighted in this video. The dynamic moving between poses helps slowly warm up smaller muscles before engaging larger muscles in deeper stretches... I least that is how I structure my classes. I also focus on moving the body through all planes so that your joints are moving and stretching in ways that you may not if you are just stretching. I think the most important part is to find an instructor that you like and can connect with their style. I love a 15 minute yoga after strength training. I've actually done seminars for powerlifters and strongman athletes on the value of yoga in their sports. Helps keep everything moving and aids in recovery

[@JanGlow]

So true!!

[@creativecheersoffashionlau7364]

Paula Jean good to hear! I am hypermobile too and was thinking if starting yoga(I did tons of taichi before I got sick) but maybe that will not be the best choice then. Arial yoga looked awesome to me as I was a very intense weightlifting training but now with ME i cannot do sports anymore.

[@sarahdemarrero3520]

So glad you had a good experience! Just wanted to drop a tiny bit of advice since you plan on continuing with hot yoga. Hot yoga can be dangerous if the proper precautions aren’t taken. 1) Please stay hydrated before practicing any hot yoga. It’s extremely dehydrating. 2) Feel free to step out of the room if the heat becomes overwhelming. Some teachers and students have this idea that you should just “stick it out” even if you’re feeling sick, but please ignore them. Listen to your body. If you don’t cool down when overheated or suffering heat exhaustion, you can potentially suffer a heat stroke. 3) Be hyper-attentive to your body. I noticed you said that hot yoga made you feel like you were more flexible. This is a common sentiment and part of the reason why people love Bikram. HOWEVER, and this is super important to note, in high temperatures your body sometimes doesn’t register signals that you need to stop. You can tear a ligament or overstretch them to the point where they are unable to support your joints as intended. In yoga we practice something called Sthira Sukham Asanam. Sthira and Sukham are opposites, Sthira meaning strong and stable and Sukham meaning comfortable and relaxed. Find the balance between both in your postures (Asanam). Listen to your body.

[@sarahdemarrero3520]

P.S. just wanted to drop a note that I’m a certified yoga teacher. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me! @yogabysarita on Instagram

Very great advice given here... from another yoga teacher.

[@cait7140]

I’ve been looking to start yoga, so I appreciate these tips as well!!! Honestly wouldn’t have thought of some of these. So thank you very much ! Especially good to know about the stretching and feeling more flexible.

[@ilovelucytheboston]

[@limiv5272]

I think that in exercise classes the personality of the instructor is as important if not more important than the type of exercise

[@katecollins2471]

Limi V agreed! Especially with yoga, for me anyway p

[@maryconnors4311]

100%! I went in as a beginner and was pushed into poses that I wasn’t ready for by the instructor. Unsurprisingly, it led to injury.

[@jlynnharris0725]

[@SarahBCordell]

Definitely true

[@Emily-ir3yp]

It’s weird watching this after Vlogmas ... I’m like “that’s the day Stephen was trying to hang the plaque.... and that’s the day she had clothes to change into, but she didn’t” lol I couldn’t wait for this video to come out!

[@Madij1990]

As a yoga teacher, those moments of calm and clarity are hard to chase lol. It comes with a consistent practice and a lot of work off the mat, like journaling, meditation, etc. the truth is that no practice is perfect, everyone has different capabilities, and everyone has different versions of zen. Whatever works for you is best

[@lynnlazenby1973]

I found hot yoga eight years ago and never looked back. I go every single day and don't know what I would do without it. I love that you put yourself out there and tried new things outside of your comfort zone. You rocked it!!!

Congrats! That's really awesome! I've been wondering about yoga myself since I'm very limited in what exercise I can do bc of a knee mobility disability. I can't bend my left knee past 80° which makes even walking & sitting hard, so am hoping yoga will help.

[@leannwampler6083]

I’m super bummed we didn’t get to see clips of the actual yoga classes.

[@maryclairenolin6997]

LeAnn Wampler I’m guessing she wanted to respect everyone’s privacy who attended the classes. Pretty difficult to film clips that don’t show anyone else behind or next to her, plus she probably wanted to be fully present and not think about starting and stopping her camera.

[@brookecarrasco7854]

[@Sarahpeaches333]

Yoga really changed my way of thinking about my life and myself. I had and still have a hard time comparing myself and my progress to other people but someone once told me that yoga is a solo journey that takes place in a group setting, and thinking about it that way has really let me ease up on myself ❤️ it’s really awesome that you’re trying it out :-D

[@Kelly-ce3ic]

Fabletics customer service is one of the worst I have ever dealt with. I liked the leggings I got but they weren’t the right size. Every time I tried to get them exchanged the people I was on chat with kept ending the chat with me. Time after time. Then I’d get an email asking how the chat went and I would tell them and they would say sorry you need to go on chat or call us. I finally got it to work but it’s been stressful and taken up a lot of time trying to get it to work. So people in the comments be aware of that! The leggings are nice though.

[@laurenradford3065]

Kelly Goodman yep canceling was TERRIBLE for me... super uncomfortable. I kept asking to cancel while they were persuading me to keep the membership💀

[@JoneseyBanana]

I'm just not sure that I'm down with their business model. Their leggings cost around £50 for a pair. Fifty pounds!! And sure, you can get an "up to" 50% discount if you sign up to their VIP membership club, but then you're committing to buying from them regularly. Does anyone actually need more than 2-3 sets of workout gear?

[@FunkySock83]

Seriously. Worst customer service ever. And be prepared to sit on hold for 20 min

[@Amelia2185]

Contact them through Facebook! They're so much more helpful there

[@Casselle]

I signed up for a puppy yoga class with adoptable puppies put on by one of my local animal rescue organizations and I'm lowkey hoping it is the equivalent of goat yoga - 95% puppies and 5% yoga 🤞🏼

In a previous comment she asked to film in class and they said no, but I also wish we couldve seen what the classes were like to know if they would be a good fit for our own bodies

[@allibuettner9799]

Phones are usually a biiiig no-no in yoga classes bc the point is to be present and away from tech so I really doubt she could’ve ever filmed! Also, it’s impossible to not film those around you as well, which could definitely make them less comfortable.

[@hatchmando4918]

Alli Buettner right. I agree. I just couldnt get into the video without it. I totally know it would have been hard to find classes that would allow filming though.

[@valerie4697]

Yeah would have been better if she was with a small group or personal trainer to guide through so we could actually see what’s happening. This particular vid wasn’t very helpful for me but obvi it’s different for everyone.

If you forget to skip a month you get the money in credit to spend, so it’s not so bad BUT it is pretty easy to forget to skip and they make it super annoying to cancel your membership (you have to call up and have someone try and talk you out of it)

This is absolutely my favorite video you have done! I started my yoga journey a year ago very intimidated and was also surprised by how welcoming the yoga community is. It has done wonders for my mental health, body positivity, and physical health. I love seeing other people try yoga and experience the benefits themselves. I'm so glad you found a class you enjoy and hope this inspires others to try it out! One thing my teacher always says is "yoga is for everybody AND every body." I am also still very inflexible but as time goes on, it's amazing to see how far you've come and which asanas come more naturally after consistent practice. Thank you Sierra for this video ✨

I’ve been attending a hot yoga studio for about a year and a half now and it has been life changing. I’m so happy you tried it and liked it.

Fabletics is really difficult customer service wise and you can't use the amount they charge you monthly on sales or like cash in the store.

It would’ve been cool to be able to film each class, but yoga is a really personal experience and so the studios said no when I asked filming permission.

[@Monoiru]

@@SierraSchultzzie couldn't you just have called some yoga studios beforehand and asked if you can film only yourself there? Pretty sure some would allow it as it will help them bring in more customers (I've seen plenty of other youtubers film themselves doing yoga as well)

As someone who is basically a stiff noodle (no arm strength, no core strength, super inflexible) I actually found aerial yoga to be one of the most fun for me. The silk helps so much. I do wish they moved slower though, the 3 classes I've been too all move super fast. If you find a different beginner class and want to go again, that handstand pose you showed is one of the easiest. Once you get the confidence to let the silk take your weight it's super easy and fun!

I got a free trial of class pass last year and used it to go to different yoga style classes. It was so good! Highly recommend using class pass to try things you wouldn’t normally do to figure out what you like. I was intimidated being the only larger person in every class I went to but I was so proud of myself for trying and surprised myself with what I could do especially in aerial yoga.

I love hot yoga because I am a sweater when exercising... Chose it because everyone sweats during it so I don't look like a freak 😂😂😂🙈

[@witchyfishfry]

I have done yoga for over three years now and i can whole heartedly say that yoga isn't about flexibility. you aren't meant to push yourself into poses, it's about being mindful and finding what feels good for your body (which means making adjustments if you have trouble or uncomfortable in certain poses) the idea of yoga and flexibility is because the more you do yoga the more flexible you become. I have proof of this since 3 years ago I couldn't even touch my toes and now I can reach even further than that! yoga. is. amazing. If you haven't already I highly recommend checking out Yoga With Adriene's youtube channel because that's where I started 3 years ago on a 30 day journey that she was doing. There is actually a 30 day journey called home going on right now, and I think it's a good challenge to take on for the new year. namaste 🙏

Just the process of learning to feel and listen to every inch of your body changed my entire relationship with my body. And i swear its the only place I can truly meditate and let go because when I don't I am sure im going to have a heat stroke... so its basically the only option.

My mom does aerial yoga and hoops (she is 59 and absolutely insane). I'm way too scared and definitely would be worried doing it for the first time with wood underneath.

Love how you push yourself outside your comfort zone💕 I started doing yoga last year in April and I absolutely love it (P.S. I am very unflexible as well, but it gets better, promise...🙈)

I have been practicing yoga for 8 years. Each person is different but I feel Hatha yoga is best for beginners. I practice Vinyasa and also do an inversion class. A tip for anybody wanting to try an aerial class, make sure to wear layers as the silk can hurt a lot when rubbing on bare skin.

Havent watched yet but I'm so glad you're trying hot yoga! I have some back problems and hot yoga has helped so much with pain management and increasing flexibility and range of motion. AHHH I hope you love it 💕

Same! 👍

Also we need yoga updates maybe once the 30 day pass is up do another video and tell us any changes you noticed from going. I really liked your soul cycle video too. Although I'm not at a fitness level for that I feel like I could try yoga and ease my way into it.

Soooo I do aeriel yoga and I am a size 16/18. I absolutely love it. There are a few adjustments I have had to make to fit with the fact I have more weight pushing on the hammock (obvs) but it has enabled me to slowly gain arm and core strength. It honestly sounds like you did not have a good teacher/ class because an inverted backbend to a headstand should nooootttt be in a beginners class. I think perhaps you should have looked for a fundamentals class? My studio doesn't allow anyone into even lvl 1 without the fundamentals teacher approving the move up. My fundamentals teacher has been so supportive and educational. The first lesson I was EXTREMELY nervous about inversions because well I ain't no skinny minny, but she came over and guided me through it and helped me flip. In the second class I did the 3 inversions and flips by myself! It was super empowering and is actually really good for those with knee or shoulder/ arm issues because a lot of pressure is off of your knees and arms. I have a bad shoulder and my teacher makes sure that any twists we have to do go the other way because I have restricted movement in that bad arm. This comment is really long but yeh if you try aerial yoga again I would recommend a fundamentals class.

So u just show us the outfit & going in & out from there then talk about your experience, i understand that there is other ppl there but i wished to see you actually doing the moves, etc.

Go you for being plus size and going to any yoga class. I always had the impression that I was too big to do yoga. I've now been practicing for 3 years and it's awesome to have other plus size people come up to me and tell me how nice it is to have someone like them in the room. I have the practice to much that I'm also a yoga teacher in hopes of encouraging all body types to do yoga. I keep my classes on a rotation of teachers so I don't get bored and so I'm always learning something new.

Never comment but LOVE your experience with yoga and excited for your body- mind- soul’s journey ✨ you are inspiring!

[@d.aliceden3095]

LOVING the curly hair! Your layers work really well with this texture.

[@elizabethingram7057]

They have a class called aerial cocooning! It’s so lovely :) and super restorative

[@meglie1]

Yes girl! Glad you went out of your comfort zone and enjoyed it! Also I have tried floating yoga, with the boards that float in the pool. It was really fun. Maybe something to try in the summer!

[@idkhippo]

I’m super unflexible by nature ahah I did gymnastics for 6 years and can’t even touch my toes on most days. I’ve been doing hot yoga for a month now and I LOVEEEEE it!!! It makes me feel so good when I leave and I get a good sweat

[@iggylove5805]

Aerials or aerial yoga is really great and you don't necessarily need any prior experience to do stuff. A lot of classes don't require any prior knowledge of anything yoga related. It's really great and I think everyone should try it at some point! (Also the hammock itself can be pretty claustrophobic but other apparatuses like the silk itself, trapeze, hoop/lyra, etc aren't claustrophobic at all)

[@maureenseel118]

Vinyasa is my go to because I like moving through the poses. My favorite class is a warm (not hot) vinyasa flow...it is in a warm room but not overly hot so it loosens your muscles a little. Vinyasa is also different every time-the poses and flow changes from one class to the next.
