Beginner Yoga

Starting yoga can be a really big step! The expense of the studio yoga experience and a sense of not "fitting in" can be scary for a first time yogi. Yoga studio schedules also mean that the classes available for those who work 9-5 are always packed. I've even heard of people having to make a "mat reservation." Ugh! Not very serene.

Many beginning yogis start with DVD and Video classes, and these can be helpful, but are not personalized. A DVD is always the same length and the same routine, and cannot grow with you as you increase your yoga experience. Online yoga is in its infancy, and commonly consists of a video library which can be choppy and difficult to watch on the computer even if your connection is fast. At Guided Yoga we like to think our online yoga is superior for beginning yoga students. This is why:
•Guided Yoga's difficulty scale is fully graded, so our classes grow with you and are always exactly at your level.
•Our revolutionary search algorithm allows us to create yoga classes that are always different and always personalized for you.
•Our time settings mean that no matter how much time you have for a class, Guided Yoga can create a satisfying and well-rounded yoga routine for you.

The Guided Yoga Discussion Center

Hi everyone,

Just a little about us at www.guidedyoga.com!
After having my first child I discovered that it was difficult to get to my usual yoga classes.  I found that many of my friends even without children were in the same position.  My husband and fellow yogi and I  set out to bring Guided Yoga into being.

Guided Yoga is a revolutionary new way to experience online yoga.  Guided Yoga creates online yoga classes on demand, individually tailored to any level of yoga experience, from beginner to expert.  Right now we are offering a free trial month to experience Guided Yoga's membership features.  Please come visit us at www.guidedyoga.com.

Also check back with our blog soon for upcoming features such as breathing exercises and a bio of our favorite yogi TaraMarie Perri.

Namaste
