Bikram hatha yoga sequence yoga journal2/28/2024 The website and acro yoga article provided me with a video to use for reference or follow along with the written instructions, which I loved. Thanks to my classmates who voted on another poll, week seven my partner and I tried out acro yoga! I used the Yoga Journal website and found it to be the best website to date that I was able to learn from without having to search for a secondary resource like YouTube. Feeling like performing 5 poses wasn’t enough, I went to YouTube to find a restorative flow to follow along with. The article I found provided me with background information on the restorative yoga practice as well as five basic restorative yoga poses and how to perform them with props. Unfortunately the resource did not provide a sequence or flow to go along with it so I went back to YouTube to practice a hot yoga flow by Adi. This week I tried out Bikram yoga at home, also known as hot yoga! I used Pinterest to learn about hot yoga and how to create a hot yoga space in my own home. Finally, I stepped out of my comfort zone and created my first youtube video of myself performing the really hard power vinyasa flow that I tried out. Then I learned the 12 Must-Know Yoga Poses for Beginners which helped me perform a really tough Vinyasa power flow. I used the Yoga for Beginners app and was extremely disappointed by it. Week four was a busy week! I tried out morning yoga thanks to my classmates who voted on my poll. This is where I learned my least favourite yoga pose: the half camel pose. I used YouTube again but a classmate of mine recommended I try out a new instructor, Sarah Beth. Flexibility is a huge weakness of mine and improving my flexibility was one of my goals of this project. This week I worked on yoga focussing on flexibility. I highly recommend Adriene’s yoga sequences, she is great! I also talked about a problem I ran into with my first attempt at yoga. This is where I learned my favourite yoga pose, the happy baby pose. Week two I used YouTube as a resource and followed along with a Hatha style yoga sequence that was an isolated hip and lower back release with Adriene. Week two: Getting down with the dog… literally. I also outlined my plan and my goals for this project. The first week I outlined why I decided on yoga for my learning project. Outline of my journey: Week one: Yoga Newbie This blog post is dedicated to highlighting what I learned, what I accomplished, and what resources I used. Going beyond learning yoga, this project has taught me how to seek out online learning resources, given me the opportunity to try out various new content creation tools, provided me the confidence to post videos and pictures of myself, and taught me how to be present in each moment. I was able to notice the many benefits of yoga and how it positively impacted my life. I loved this project and had such a great time working on my physical and mental health. As the semester comes to an end that means my yoga learning project does as well.
