Yoga for Abs and Core

[@narengupta1060]

After a severe attack of back pain, the rehab medicine doc wrote me a number of medications that would have effectively ended my career if I started taking them. Luckily I went home from that appointment and found your videos on line and am glad to say that after 2 weeks of doing them, I have not needed any medication at all. Thank you very much.

[@vesnastankovic7542]

I'm studying the best yoga buttock exercises and found an awesome resource at Yanas Yoga Results (google it if you're interested)

[@meganlee8564]

Been doing this along with a few other videos of hers as my new fitness routine. I can really feel it working when I'm doing it all.

[@SarkaIrTiek]

Dear Esther, I send you a kiss everytime the tutorial is finished and you say "namaste" :D thanks for being a wonderful teacher again

[@merlijnbell8747]

[@cylorenz]

Thank you for these gifts, your videos allow me to practice while my kids crawl all over me and welcome yoga into their young lives as a norm!

[@bmercer22]

[@alexmantua]

Good to use in martial arts training! thx Esther!

[@ScreechinD11ldoo]

I have been trying to get into yoga for years and experience "the flow," but have not been successful - until now! The was my first experience with "the flow." Thank you very much!

[@gwenshipley7407]

Your videos are excellent. Well-paced, clear, encouraging. Love working out with you. Thank you for being a part of my morning and evening routrine.

[@Fry7801]

thanks for these excersises your explanations are clam and clear. My lower back is not strong and i need to gradually build up strength so im glad there's excerises that start on a easy level. Could you upload a video to strengthen the lower back specifically?

[@keepyaheadup2Pacthug]

Favorite yoga core workout, you feel it instantly! Thanks :)

[@sherryleung932]

thank you so much for the sharing! core is my weakness ~and i will start to try these excises from today!

[@animegrrl123]

this is perfect ! not only for yoga but for martial arts. kicking could be quite a challenge if the core is not strong.

[@itsCherieOMG]

Thank you so much for your videos Esther, they are great and incorporate the many different levels; you have adjustments available for the beginner on some of them for those who wish to try out the more difficult poses in yoga, which is great for me! As a beginner, I am finding yoga relaxing for my body and I am already enjoying it after just 10mins. Thank you so much again

[@parvatisen]

You make it look so simple! I feel my stomach is on fire even half way through... Thank you for the amazing videos..

[@MegaFrootytooty]

My core feels AMAZING! Thanks so much!!!

[@nadavukotic6606]

[@jennnifairy]

[@yogeasy_com]

Thank you Fani!

[@crazyhorse345]

Hi Esher. Thanks for the workout. We do these moves in pilates as well.

[@bethpeacock2]

Perfect addition before your yoga class! Creating a new habit to do this to improve my core strength and yoga practice.

[@jensakra1477]

Thanks for (another) great video. How can I avoid lower back injury in the exercise at 1:00?

[@greeiwi2216]

jen sakra

[@AnantaKranti]

Thankyou! Love and appreciate your offerings...

[@quimicafq]

I love how you said "Don't be lazy"... it's funny but sometimes we make up our minds and exercise but only do it halfway...I don't know why, seen as if we're taking the time to do it we might as well do it right, but oh well... I'll try this vid, thanks Esther!

[@charlesnelson3040]

This is good stuff Esther your are great Yogini

[@avaleigh7541]

I love your videos. You are great!

[@ahmadsatti6204]

[@shilpamanmohan]

Hi, Thanks for most useful videos. Please can you tell me how many times does one do each of the exercise shown in this video including the last one. Thanks a lot.

[@XInvida]

Always love to see your videos. Are you going to do any more yin yoga sequences?

[@LovelyMignon]

Thanks Esther, I have been trying to find a safe way to exercise and regain my healthier physique and your videos are a major help! :)

[@farzallday]

Peace be Upon you!!!!!!! Thank you! May you have many blessings in this life and the next! xxxooo

[@bojanabegovic2550]

Thank you so much these exercises feel AWESOME! Lots of hugs for you wonderful Being!

[@johnjoycecastanos6720]

Ive been following your advice for a month now..ive lost weight..diet ang yoga all the way..

[@yogawithkalidasa8503]

Great, got a new one from you, thanks!

[@SpiritusHekate]

Thank you for the videos! they have helped me so much!

[@GailM11]

great sequence!

[@yogeasy_com]

There can be a natural curve, but only if that feels ok to the lower back. If the abs are quite weak I would suggest keeping the lower back on the floor..

[@Marinette007]

Thank you ESther. Namaste.

[@Dimaspy]

Also good for us bodybuilders, just do this after your abs/core workout session.

[@everynadams2712]

Hi Ester, I started yoga a few years back after i had n microdisectomy of the L4 and L5 disks. Had no formal training, but i downloaded your video's and it helped me tremendously. I heard on one of your video's that you was in South Africa and was wondering when you would come again? I'm in Cape Town...southern suberb and this side is very little yoga class and the one's that is here are not very eager to take me as a student when i tell them about my operation. I want to know from you what can i do to help myself improve? Thanks for taking the time to read my message. Regards Everyn

[@bagiax]

Very helpful video. Thank you.

[@carlossousa2831]

Great exercises Esther, thanks for sharing ! ;=)

[@Wizartar]

This one combined with the plank workout you did a couple videos back equals killer abs

[@songweaver6076]

You rock! thanks for the yoga!!!

[@SuperEriberry]

What is the name of the pose at 5:23 with the legs stretched out and the torso reaching for the centre?

[@pepper2876]

Hi Esther! Love the video! I was just wondering tho how this can be differentiated with pilates? Would love to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks! :)

[@coldheartedbutton]

Another brilliant video :D

[@JaniceMillerArtsAreJanice]

Awesome vid!!

[@Sylphadora]

Thank you for your answer =) I was just asking because when we do abdominals in my aerobics class, our instructor always insists that we keep our lower back firmly flat on the floor so as to protect the spine. Some people seem to find it hard to keep the lower spine touching the floor all the time while doing abdominals. In my case, I find it harder when my legs are closer to the floor.

[@babinashrestha8952]

Thank you so much....for video.

[@waynenewton3357]

beautiful work

[@WitchingHourHuntress]

Hello :) I'm a big fan of yoga,so huge thanks for the videos!I wanted to ask you one question-when I started doing yoga,on my very first class,I burst out crying after the second sequence-is that normal?My teacher said that it's how my body is getting rid of stress.Is that true? -K

[@memoimise]

it underneath a pillow. I would also look at trying beginner's Pilates and using an exercise ball to help you. Beginner's usually do well using props or tools. You will achieve a lot more using props and when you have mastered sufficient core strength a sequence such as this will be a cinch. I'd give it 2.5 weeks (if you exercise your core daily) and you will be much stronger. Good luck! :)

[@memoimise]

The reason you have the deep arch and it's uncomfortable is because you have a weak core. Take it easy and slowly, building up each day. This sequence might be a bit advanced for you, so an exercise that physiotherapists recomend to clients in your position would be to lie on your back with your hands under the arch and press your back down onto your hands. Eventually you will be able to press your back into the floor without using your hands. Be careful not to strain your neck, perhaps propping

[@TheGypsyhealer]

Blessings to you for sharing with us1

[@SecretMustashSociety]

Hi there! im just wondering what could be a good diet for getting the best results of doing yoga?

[@MegaDarkangel1111]

wow that did work well thanks.

[@TheBlonde14455]

Because of leg injury not much on legs or walking...so now after 10 years weight on abs..I do yoga daily and just started your core tone to rest of yoga as no strain on back or neck...can you suggest other to tone waist area up

[@patriotpower91]

i do these exercises in the gym, great for building your abs! :)

[@clairobics]

many thanks Esther

[@enginespareslong9021]

Good lesson, I like it.

[@roryswastika709]

I was wondering if there is a certain kind of yoga routine for nice glutes, abs and breasts coz I have been doing two different kinds of Yoga for begginer and one is for glutes from one of your videos

[@NewAgeNewEraTV]

Nice video!

[@Krazeebaby77]

Hi Esther, I wanted to know if you could modify this pose because I have a deep arch in my back and it is a bit uncomfortable to try and press my lower back to the ground due to the deep curve..If this cannot be modified is there any other things i could do for ab strength and toning?

[@9248161459]

hi Esther..I love this video of yours to strengthen my core ..but,I am fearful about doing the first posture of exhale legs up and inhale legs down ,as it hurts or strains the lower back ..I have heard about the same in videos of other instructors ..pls confirm on this .. note : I am a IT employee, who sits whole day and this may aggravate the strain on lower back.

[@9248161459]

hi Esther.. pls reply on this..

[@Mordred478]

In addition to personally benefiting from what Esther teaches, I keep wondering how old she is, approximately, because I think she's probably older than she looks. My point is that Esther seems to be a living example of how yoga practice and fitness in general, if pursued diligently enough, can maintain an attractive shape, muscle tone and even beauty well beyond what would normally be the case.

[@MsAubreyT]

Thanks!! Work the core:)

[@heoTheo]

For the people that love a good exercise.. Do this one, then the love handles one, then the strong arms upper body and then finish with the 20 minutes energizing set. :P

[@irca27]

thank you!

[@yogeasy_com]

Thank you for watching :-)

[@eternallystill]

[@tonytunzat]

[@eternallystill]

[@anjalidevi7843]

My lower back is having a lot of pain while doing this 😣 can I take any support while doing this

[@hunteralphamale]

VERY good! Tx. G

[@Housenumber68]

Is it ok to do this practice with a mild disc bulge ?

[@Sylphadora]

Thanks for the vid!! ;-) The lower back has to be all the time touching the floor, doesn't it??

[@Fa6im94]

Esther I really love you ❤❤

[@OrangeKitty87]

Tough to keep shoulders and arms relaxed doing the side to side thing!

[@melo15813]

Is stretching for 15 min a day 2 times a day enough to get flexible to do splits? Will it take maybe a month or longer?

[@jeffersonlopez6147]

I can't do the first movement. It hurts my lower back

[@noimx7695]

thank you:)

[@waynenewton3357]
