1. Let’s begin with the Sun Salutation (Surya Namaskar), repeat this 6 times. This is to warm up the whole body before continuing with asanas.
2. Leg Raises: These are also simple exercise that prepare for the asanas, and it strengthens the abdominal and lower back muscles.
3. The headstand: Sirshasana, it is one of the most powerful beneficial pose for both body and mind. I did some variations here. It is important to rest in child pose until body is fully relaxed both before and after this pose.
4. Shoulderstand : Sarvangasana, The plough: halasana, and the bridge : Sethu Bandhasana. They are very good for giving flexibility to the spine and the neck and arms while releasing tension.
5. The fish: Matsyasana, it is the counterpose to the shoulderstand and must always be practiced after it.
6. The forward bend: Paschimothanasana: This is good for trimming the waist, restoring elasticity to the spine, and stretching the hamstrings.
7. The inclined plane: This strengthens the entire body from head to toes.
8. The backbends: Cobra (Bhujangasana), it gives powerful stretches to the spine, and also strengthen the abdominals.
9. The half Spinal Twist ( Ardha Matsyendrasana): It tones the spinal nerves and improves digestion.
10. The splits (Anjaneyasana) : this pose brings a feelings of balance and symmetry.
11. The Crow variation (Kakasana) : It is a very powerful balancing pose.
12. The hands to feet pose (Pada Hastasana): this one has the same benefits as the forward bend. Come up slowly.
13. The Triangle (Trikonasana), it gives great stretch to the spine, and tones the spinal nerves.
14. Final Relaxation: The Corpse Pose( Savasana): relax deeply and let the body sink to the earth for at least 10 mintues. It helps to release the tension and receive the full benefit of what we have just practiced.
Had to cut the length a bit since youtube only allows 15 min max for each video.

I have no interest in Yoga… But I really REALLY enjoyed this video.
Bach: Prelude No 1. from the Well Tempered Clavier
She is doing the sun salutation it’s suppose to be that fast.
I am so not flexible. 🙁 I’ve been practising yoga for quite a while now and I’m not seeing any results. I can’t even sit up straight when my legs are stretched out in front of me because my muscles are simply too short. Stretching doesn’t seem to have any effect. I can only dream of being able to do this.
Hi Lola, yes, yoga practice made me flexible. 🙂
is there a routine that will help me get the hang of the crow pose? my arms are to weak
cool!! just started yoga, looks fun
thats crazy fast..
You have a stunning balance and your control posture is amazing. I’m sure it’s worth. I hope to reach this level one day. Meanwhile I keep on training and improving my skills and endurance. Thanks.
How much time do you work our per week?
Sivananada style
I must say you’re choice of music is completely fitting
What you’re doing is demonstrating your yoga and doing a very good job at that but it’s too fast to be a guide video. One can’t possibly follow you so fast without prior knowledge of the aasanas.
If you want to burn fat, you should google Fat Blast Furnace. They can guide you and help you get the body you deserve.
Ahhh, I’m in the calming part of youtube…:)
It would be a shame if you did not shed fat quickly when other average people can so easily with Aston Fat Furnace (check it out on Google).
Hi, yoga is 99% of practice and 1% of theory, im sure it will come after more practice. Take care, Namaste. 🙂
Oh man, I think that’s so great! I just started doing yoga and I’m a kind of lost, I don’t know where I should start from… I mean, what poses… can I choose whatever I want? If a good soul answers me I’ll be reeeally glad 😀
Hi! I am naturally flexible so many of these poses are not challenging except the headpose. I have been practicing on how to focus and I made it stand for just a few sec and then I fell. Any tips for me to improve and make a longer stand??? Thanks!
That’s a bit fast for yoga.. not really getting the full stretch or slow control for strength.
The way she allow her knee to pass her foot is unsafe and could cause injury. Yoga is relaxing and most of the poses are challenging but be safe no your limit and make sure your alignment is accurate to avoid damages.
aww this video is so aweseome! I’ ll try this morning yoga tomorrow.
yoga is supposed to be slow and graceful, you’re moving too quickly, seems like you have a lack of control over your movements.
Good practice, bad flow- sorry
.nice
I am naturally flexible and is there water tuning in the background?
thanks for shared! You’re so cute 🙂
this is strictly for experts
when you said hamstrings: that reminds me, im hungry ( RUSHES OFF TO GET FOOD)
Hi Michela, I usually practice with relaxing and meditating music. 🙂
Hahahah you make the head pose look so easy! 🙂
typing this with my left hand
im just learning cheer leading and im practicing yoga to be honest yoga is hard
tv is better than internet for any information so Y?
joly joly zenland baby , steel be fair !!!!!!!!!!!
Also, I have a question; approximately how long does this routine take? I’m looking for a quick stretch for maybe 15 mins that I can do before school. Thanks 🙂
