Beginner's Yoga Class (20 Minutes)

[@Mandii99]

whenever I'm having a bad day or a bad moment I think of the instructor's voice saying 'full of joy' or 'ready for wonderful evening, wonderful day' ad I have no idea why it makes me happier,

[@barongrimswald]

This is the video that got me started on Yoga, and I have never found a better video to help someone take the first step

[@Prissve]

Mee too😊

[@grizzlyblue486]

I've been using this video for over 5 years! I'm so grateful for it!

[@enterrtainment1157]

3 years and counting for me 😁🙏

[@blip98]

I am around 10 forever the biginner! ;)

[@Sara-706]

Same here!!

[@dogbeachdigest1139]

12 years for me

[@fernandohorikawa]

You know, I've always heard about all the benefits of practicing Yoga but I just never got to it. That was until i developed severe depression and anxiety attacks in the beggining of 2019...Now We're almost in 2020 and I have no doubt in my mind that starting to practice Yoga together with meditation and regular exercices saved my life. Here in Brazil is expensive to practice yoga and is not something that's part of our culture so I'm very happy to find some good and free yoga content on KZbin , cheers!

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

That is great! :)

[@owloko1349]

Que legal eu também tive uma experiencia parecida, tenho assistido esses videos desde 2017 e não canso de recomendar

[@AnupriyaBiswasRoy]

2024 and I still come back to this video (I started in 2014) and the complete beginners one. I was so amazed when I realised that all I had to do was listen closely to the instructions and automatically felt that my poses were getting corrected. The pace is just right. With other videos I’ve tried, I have to always keep pausing and rewinding to hear the instructions. This is still the best instructional video that I’ve found, and the voice is so calming too!!

[@TheEnergyVoyantNurse]

His accent is lovely, and one can feel his calmness and gentleness.

[@dyyf326]

I have been doing this exercise following this video once a day for one whole year. It keeps me healthy and agile. Thanks! I am an 80 years old man in Canada. By the way, I also do your eye exercise.

[@kristiebolton3220]

a lot of people have said its too fast but if you stick with it the routine is repeated lots of times so you get used to it and then its fine. I have never done any yoga before at all but i stuck with it and i think it was a really good exercise.

[@rosethompsonful]

I am so thankful! I always refer back to these core beginners videos when I'm stiff. It boosts my confidence and is better than any class I've been to in my town!! Thank you!!

[@crissinaruvi4659]

I just want to say I've enjoyed this series as a beginner with back problems I stuck to beginners video(slower one 20min)for over a month now and I flow very easily through this one now. I do feel a strong connection with my body and see my flexibility and core strength increase in combo with beginners pilates. Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy the introduction to a very peaceful and uplifting practice.

[@surendranpandaran6639]

Love your videos, especially this one. Your voice, pace, cueing - all non-intrusive and connects me in such a short time.

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

Thanks for sharing! Hopefully you'll find many interesting videos on this or on our other channels which help and support to practice yoga. Do you know the yoga community? Here is the link: my.yoga-vidya.org/ Om Shanti! Peace! Frieden! am

[@TW-fx2jx]

his voice is amazing

[@tessarodes]

I know this is just a beginner video, but it's my third day doing yoga and to my surprise, I was able to keep up just fine - I think the pace and the calming voice helped me remember to breathe. Thank you!

[@bubbie74]

You have to have patience and practice makes it perfect. Go at your pace and don't give up. If you find this hard try the complete beginners yoga first.This is the best yoga channel!

[@sharonyash]

I have never been this relaxed or flexible. I have been doing this and the COmplete beginner for the past 5 days and my body is so relaxed. I have been having severe back pain and suffered as doctors kept tellingme to take pain killers. With this, by the 3rd day, I can move most of my body part and I think I will be able to do all in the next several days. THANK you so much for sharing such a slow pace movement for someone who is not flexible like me!

[@meriemilove2eat]

I did this video a couple of years back and it was my first time every doing yoga. I was not really expecting anything but then I would direct my breath to pain points and it actually helped. For no reason, I also started crying when I was doing the pose at 5:32. That’s when I was convinced of yoga and its power.

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

Thank you for sharing your experience! All the best for you 🙏 Om Shanti 💜🕉️

[@kaytevolz]

I just wanted to thank you for posting these videos. I have been doing them twice a day only for a few months and I have had such a huge increase in energy and my mood is so much more positive. I used to drink multiple energy drinks of cups of coffee every day, and was so grumpy in the afternoons. I haven't touched caffeine since I've started following these videos and I am much happier. Thank you so much! You've honestly changed my life for the better!

[@shenhavhorenstein9652]

I want to thank you for a wonderfull class . I 've been doing the complete begginners class for a week now and I all ready feel the difference in my body. I feel so good that I tried the begginers this morning and happily I was able to do most of the class. I feel great !

[@jennyt1415]

Thank you Sukadev for your videos. They have become my favourite yoga practice. Namaste!

[@moonandstar6467]

sukadev has such a calming voice, i think that above everything else has kept me coming back to these. the yoga is great (even though i'm not as consistent with it as i should be lol) but his voice makes it all the more relaxing

[@rachelhenderson9518]

I am in complete gratitude and joy for such a wonderful teaching. Some of which is the best I've ever found. You're voice is so gentle, so soft so sweet and excitingly connected to God. Thank you thank thank you. I will continue to follow you, increasing my knowledge and awareness of the All

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

+Rachel Henderson Thank you very much! Hopefully you´ll find more videos which you can practice with. Do you know the english yoga community? Have a look: my.yoga-vidya.org All the best for your practice! Om Shanti! am

[@thomasfoley2527]

Respect to you for being one of about 5 people in the history of the internet to admit they were wrong and actually learned something.

[@jaslynho2878]

I have been doing complete yoga for beginner almost a month.. its a great choice and i introduce to my friends and relatives !!

[@NordigardsEmma]

The first time I did this routine I also thought it went too fast (especially the sun salutation), but when you've done it a couple of times you know the poses and now I think it's a perfect speed :) I do this every morning when I wake up, and I'm full of energy and joy afterwards for the rest of the day!

[@lepretzel]

I will admit the initial sun salutations were pretty difficult because they went so quickly, but I am feeling wonderful and relaxed following this practice. Thank you.

[@tmccle]

I watch this video every-time I want to practice yoga . Getting better each time. Now I can follow instructions without having to look at the screen. Plus I feel great after. Thank you.

[@patconnell7055]

Great. I have spent 50 Years doing and teaching Yoga.

[@TheDorchux]

Thank you. This is so generous of you to post these videos. I've never done yoga but thought I'd try it due to chronic pain that's been in my arms, back and legs. After 40 minutes of beginner classes the pain is significantly diminished. Thanks again!

[@mariabolanos7114]

I really enjoy doing this in the morning. It's a great way to start my day! Thank you!

[@chikarae17]

i felt relieve after following this yoga despite that i'm still a newbie.. yes it was hard! it was fast, but i believe after some time, after i have memorize the movements, i'll be able to do better..

[@Thedudeman136]

Thank you friend! may peace follow you where ever you roam! You have brought to me a gift that can never truly be repaid, I can only hope to practice what you have and will continue to teach me so I can share the inner joy and love it brings me with others.

[@hannahmartin8099]

I have just started Yoga and it is so good, I always feel relaxed and stretched after!! Your videos are brilliant thank you for sharing with us all :-)

[@bellona6356]

Yoga is meant to be done at the individuals speed and level of flexibility. I also found this to rather difficult to get on my 1st/2nd try, but there's nothing wrong with pausing for a few seconds in a relaxing pose (like childs pose) and then picking back up when one feels ready. Love this channels yoga videos!

[@lauramartin951]

This is honestly such a lovely practice - I've been doing it before work for the past week after not having practiced for months and I already feel more supple and flexible. It gets me warm and pumped for the day! For those saying it's too fast - once you get to grips with the movements, it is exactly the right pace. Perhaps watch some instructive sun salutation videos to get on top of it, then try again?

[@yoganshmurade7100]

Laura Martin hi

[@stockmarketlearner8395]

Sun salutations (Surya namaskar)

[@MrMytake]

I like these yoga videos. The instructions are easy to follow. I hardly need to look at the screen. Just what I need, great job!

[@supinesorceress5561]

These yoga lessons are the best I have found, thank you so much

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

Thank you! :)

[@thatsillyshana]

My back usually hurts and cracks all day, but right now it actually feels comfortable

[@Ramen999]

I think the video is a good pace. It does say advanced beginners so its more for people who have already gone through the basics and want to move on to more challenging yoga.

[@EmzMeister]

Thank you so much for this! I've always wanted to start yoga but I couldn't be bothered to go to any expensive classes and what not. This is so relaxing and enjoyable. xx

[@riddhigharat3246]

Please make more guided and calming videos like these for 20 mins session. It would be really helpful🤍

[@ashwinir9664]

its really good for mental n physically strong enough in life .... its your life take care of your body with love n care for yourself only.......

[@luckylady6369]

I can do this. I have been practicing various sun salutation versions for over a year and I am familiar with some of the other sequences and the idea of inhaling and exhaling for efficiency . This is for an advanced beginner :)

[@pricetk]

I've been using your videos in my workout routine, not to lose weight (which ive got cardio and changes in diet for), but for increased muscle strength and flexibility. Before I do my walking everyday, I do your 20 minute yoga for complete beginners instead of warm up stretches. I would recommend this to Jemina or anyone else. Not only is good for warming up your muscles, but its relaxing and makes your cardio workout more enjoyable.

[@AndreaBoltWaxingCrescent]

I am so glad I found your channel! There are not too many Yoga videos on KZbin over 3 minutes long. I love the full length videos, keep it up! Namaste.

[@jlcst60]

This video is excellent as was the first for beginners. For me the best way to get it was to watch it for as many times as I felt that I needed before I tried it but first I made sure that I had practiced the first beginners video which I felt was a much gentler pace then when I felt ready I started this one . I am not trying to keep up with the young lady she is 40 years my junior so there is no point. I am just practicing at my pace and I am sure that I will get there at some point Thank you

[@joehowell7502]

I'm already really flexible and it was a bit fast, but once I got the positions down, it was very easy :) thanks for taking time to make this video, and by the way, that girl is so pretty, I wish my hair was as long as hers... :)

[@Crazy4Corgi27]

her hair is perfect OMG I wish mine was like that

[@pablomon3]

thank you for being so generous and sharing these videos with us. peace and happiness to you and your family

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

Kuchemist, I appreciate your comment and I'm leaving it in because yoga can help with self-control, and many people would like to know this. However, please refer to our yoga instructors in a respectful way. They are very well trained and this is not about how someone looks. Good luck on your yoga journey.

[@janae1998jh]

i feel soooo relaxed this is great and it wasnt tat hard if u did the first beginners video now i recommend to tat one it is supper easy and relaxing

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

Yes you can do this every day! That would be wonderful.

[@jemifelamange3647]

Wow your absolutely amazing. Thank you so much. I watch and follow along with 3 videos every day. Exercise hasn't always been something that I enjoyed doing until recently and your making my transition into a healthier lifestyle much easier.

[@janicetaylor9768]

I love this and do it everyday!! Have gotten a lot of benefits from it and a couple others of his that I do.

[@ssspramod]

the yoga demonstration is wonderful and actually puts one at peace. Thank you very much for the beautiful video.

[@algeriangirl2434]

I salute you from Algeria ......Thank you

[@rlcarsey]

This is a great series. It helps if you've done some yoga before. If you're concerned about the speed, take them one at a time and watch the poses before you do them, then rewind and join in.

[@5975ami]

My fav stretching routine. TQ to you all.

[@MaggieBent]

Her hair is amazing. I did a five session beginner's course and she had us doing this the first class! Well, not this smoothly, but getting there. I find bringing my knee forward out of down dog impossible now, my hips are so stiff.

[@zamcaracas8571]

This is the BEST site for Yoga videos :) I Love This site! :D

[@aimeethomas4420]

love this, so authentic.I always feel fantastic afterwards.

[@aromasatanicata]

awwww my mum and I used to do Sun salutation every morning when I was little, this is really something!

[@autumn_gryffindor]

I love your videos. Even though this one was a bit fast-paced, I was still able to keep up with it because everything was explained so well throughout each exercise. Thank you for this :D

[@Withnyderosayolo]

I love it i can feel a difference in my body already

[@RoflKid911]

My first time doing yoga ever and I feel so nice...

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

You can, but the important point of the knees-chest-forhead is that you give a little push forward before coming into cobra. When you go straight down the tendency is to lie all the way flat to the floor, which you do not want to do. If you go straight down you can try to keep your whole body off the floor. Also you should try to do the little push forward before coming into cobra.

[@jijugeorge3773]

Thanks Guruji for wonderful yoga technique. Really helpful.

[@heatherryan78]

I really liked this! I'll definitely do it again. I feel nicely stretched and relaxed right now. Thank you!

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

You can go at any pace you like, there is no set rule. It is all about doing what feels right for you. Some people will progress at a faster rate than others.

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

Yoga makes you happier because it fills you with prana, or vital life-giving energy.

[@danie1226]

Sukadev, your voice is so soothing. I feel so relaxed and peaceful when i'm done :)

[@liv30rdie]

I really enjoyed this today, your voice is very relaxing! Thank you

[@CollegeCouponChick]

This makes me feel simply wonderful. I really enjoy following along with you. Voice is quite relaxing.

[@TheEnergyVoyantNurse]

I have favorited this video as it is one of the best beginner routines I have found on youtube. Thank you so much for taking the time to share with the world. I am forever grateful. Namaste :)

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

Ha akeba I know the feeling from when I was a beginner. It gets a LOT easier. Keep going and you will see :).

[@QueensCuisine]

Am so relieved after this yoga 🧘‍♂️ exercise. Thank u🙏

[@samarelneser2194]

is not the same, trying to do it by your self at home, hahaha if you go to a class believe me you'll love it... You understand things better, and feel the benefits of it!!.. Love yogaa

[@chamberlymartin2923]

These videos are absolutely amazing, & such a great help. Thank you for what you do!

[@nikkionearth]

i love his direction on this for a beginner like me, can't wait to try.

[@julieyassin36]

I thoroughly enjoy your yoga videos. Thank you!

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

Yes it can. Be sure to go slowly so as not to aggravate it at first.

[@LoveStarRee92]

So relaxing, peace and love!

[@pekochan808]

Oh my goodness thank you so much! This is EXACTLY what i was looking for! I'm excited to do this 3 times a week!

[@damon4000]

This feels really good afterwards. Thank you.

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

Om namah shivaya. Thank YOU for practicing. You can post this video on your social media platforms if you have. That would help us to spread yoga more and more. :)

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

It is different for everyone. You just do as much as you are comfortable with.

[@ShelterDogs]

I did actually watch that one and did the exercise last night. I agree, that's something I had forgotten about. You really should watch the video first.

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

This is actually a technique that looks easy but is a lot harder than it looks. If you keep practicing you will be able to do it. In the meantime just go as far as you comfortably can.

[@PragmaticEmpath]

This was very relaxing and energizing, I enjoyed this yoga variation. Thankyou.And namaste.

[@lilahlife]

I love all these Yoga Vidya videos! I am a Hooper, so these have been great for flexibility and strength! Thank you!

[@kennethjohnson568]

I though the video was fast but its a repetitive rhythm. I was a bit behind but not bad. I just kept going and afterwards I was so thankful I did. Great stretch for your back.

[@jemifelamange3647]

Also for those frustrated with the pace, there is a yoga or complete beginners video as well. Sun salutation takes a few times to get used to. I suggest watching her do a round and then maybe go find another sun salutation video from a front angle so you have a better understanding.

[@rebeccakrantman4397]

I agree the pace was a little fast. My head even started to heart a little.

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

The style of yoga being taught here follows the path of Swami Sivananda from Rishikesh, and his disciple Swami Vishnu-devananda. It is taught at the Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centers, and also at Yoga Vidya, who sponsors this channel. Very closely related is the path of Integral yoga with Swami Satchidananda, and the Bihar school of yoga from Swami Satyananda. All these styles are followers of Swami Sivananda.

[@charlibeau]

I love this guys voice, its so relaxing

[@ChadeQuiahn]

a bit fast the beginning but after doing it a few times i got it! it feels so relaxing and i always wanted to do yoga! thank you so much :)

[@shellyandruby335]

Very helpful video . Love his instructions .

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

The cobra is about building strength in the back muscles not in the arms. When you are doing the cobra, hold it as long as you can. If your arms get tired before your back, then you are using the arms too much. The back should get tired first. That is the proper way to do the cobra, no matter how high up you go. The cobra is often confused with other postures, with people thinking they should be going all the way up until their arms are straight.

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

Weight loss comes from burning more calories than you take in, by whatever method you want to use. Yoga can help bring your body back into balance, which can help you lose weight if you are overweight.

[@MegaSunrain]

Really love your videos, so easy to follow at home!

[@thelanguageofthebirds]

this is an amazing video, I started with yoga for complete beginners and have progressed to this one and practice everyday.. I was wondering what is the next yoga video that I should consider progressing to considering I am now finding this one fairly easy to do...?

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

Yes you can do them in any order that you like.

[@MrsChelleyates]

I love doing this yoga i feel so relax & at peace it is now my daily yoga i do every day )8(

[@Chair-PS6]

I love the voice.Very relaxing.

[@YogaVidyaEnglish]

Thank you! Om shanti
