It is much more worthwhile to focus on doing a movement correctly to one's best ability, rather than forcing turn-out or bigger movements.

Complete beginners are advised to take a beginner ballet class, since a teacher trained in ballet will pick up on any misalignments or incorrect positioning that a beginner may not recognize. -

In this video, we will go over a few ballet concepts that focus on strengthening and building better technique and balance, namely plies and tendus. A plie, or bend of the knees, is a building block of ballet; plies are used to initiate and terminate many movements. Tendus are a brush against the floor in which the working leg does not leave the floor; from tendus, one can build up to many other movements. It is advised that those at home use a chair, barre, or table to use as support. Also, if a full-length mirror is available to check posture, that is a good tool to have on hand. The focus of these exercises is to gradually build strength, balance, and turn-out; work within your comfort zone, making sure you are doing the movements properly, and always stopping if anything feels wrong or painful to avoid injury.

Building upon tendus, we will add a new movement- degage, which means to disengage. This is a tendu where the toes leave the floor, as opposed to a tendu where the working leg stays in contact with the floor at all times. We will also build upon plies, or a bend of the knees, and go over releve and eleve exercises. As with the last set of exercises, it is advised to have a chair, barre, or other surface to use as support, and to check posture in a full-length mirror if available. As always, the focus of these exercises is to gradually build strength, balance, and turn-out; work within your comfort zone, making sure you are doing the movements properly, and always stopping if anything feels wrong or painful to avoid injury.

We begin with the Forward Bend Series that helps relieve stress, stimulates the liver and kidneys along with reducing fatigue and anxiety, and increases overall flexibility. After this series, we move into a series of beautiful balancing poses. When doing each balancing pose make sure to place your foot down fully from heel to splayed toes to ensure a strong and steady balancing leg. Yoga balancing poses are great for improving leg strength and stability, as well as increasing your body awareness. If you are a beginner/have trouble balancing on one leg, use a wall to support yourself and use your free hand/hands to help balance you. You can work your way up to doing them freestanding. If you are a beginner/have limited flexibility make sure to have a yoga belt handy to help you do the Standing Forward Bend Series. Remember Yoga is not a competition and that you are doing Yoga for yourself to help improve your overall well-being in life. By doing these asanas naked it will help increase your body awareness and increase your self-acceptance of who you are now in the moment. In this video you will learn the following asanas: Uttanasana Prep Stretches into Uttanasana (Standing Forward Bend Prep Stretches into Standing Forward Bend), Utthita Bakasana (Standing Crane), Garudasana (Eagle), Natarajasana (The Dancer), Natyasana (Ballet Pose), Vrksasana into Ardha Vrksasana (Tree into Bonsai).

In this series we explore a way to profit from the well acknowledged benefits of practicing gentle yoga asana in heat. Again this practice does not require any special equipment just a well heated bathroom, or if the bathroom isn’t naturally warm one which can be warmed mindfully using steam from the shower. This is a standing series where traditional hatha poses like warrior, triangle and standing forward and backward bends are used to loosen up the body and focus the mind in a detoxifying environment which allows the lungs and pores to open and to cleanse themselves. This is at once a highly calming but energizing practice.

Organs of Action 1: The Hands 23 minsnakedyogaschool.com
( Level: Intermediate)
The yoga tradition defines five organs of action, known as Karmendriyas in Sanskrit. The Hands are the organs of apprehension; through them we cultivate our understanding of the world. The Hands are also how we directly shape the world. This lesson will refine your awareness of the physical organ, as well as the aspects of consciousness that underlie its actions. Starting with self-massage and a physical exploration of the Hands, the practice continues with an application of the Hands in select asana, and concludes with a guided relaxation and an invitation to explore the subtle nature behind this organ of action. Asana presented in this teacher-and-student video include: Adho Mukha Svanasana (Downward Facing Dog Pose), Baddha Guliasana (Bound Fingers Pose), Prasarita Padottanasana, (Wide-Legged Standing Forward Fold Pose, with hands in reverse prayer), Adho Mukha Vrksasana (Handstand Pose), and Savasana (Corpse Pose).

Chakras are spinning energy centers along our spine. The first chakra is located at the base of our spine and is the center of physical vitality. It governs issues surrounding primal survival and erotic/procreative urges. When the first chakra is balanced, its grounding force allows us to connect to earth energies and empower ourselves. After some tips on setting up an altar to encourage those first chakra vibrations, we begin this class with Breath of Fire, which engages the first chakra and fires its energy all over the body. We then move into some supine poses that open the hips and areas surrounding the base of the spine while helping us feel grounded on the floor. Simple standing poses that stretch the backs of the legs open channels for earth energy to flow into the first chakra. We end class in a grounding Savasana (Corpse Pose) with a short meditation on body awareness.

For this video series, we will be going over different ways to explore movement with a partner. I highly recommend finding a friend who you are comfortable with, since it takes good communication and trust to effectively do these exercises. A great way to see how you naturally dance and how your partner naturally dances is by mirroring each other: one of you will be the LEADER, and one of you will be the FOLLOWER. The leader comes up with different movements (try to keep them simple at first), and the follower tries their best to copy exactly what the leader is doing as if they were their mirror image. We will also go over many different ways to elaborate on this idea. Have fun!

Another move that builds upon the basic tendu is ronde de jambe, or AROUND THE NECK. In short, the focus is to maintain proper posture and gently working on turning out while the working leg moves in a D shape. This exercise is very strenuous on the hips and knees, so it is advised to check that your alignment is correct; it is advised to take a beginner's ballet class and an experienced dance teacher should pick up on a misalignment or things to work on. This movement can be done A TERRE (on the ground) or EN L'AIRE (in the air). It's best to start on the ground when learning, in order to focus on what part of the toe is maintaining contact with the floor. Go slow and stay within your comfort zone!

(Asana for pregnant women)
We tend to disassociate our upper bodies from our lower bodies because of taken-for-granted improper ergonomics and cultural habits, like chairs, cement, wearing shoes, incorrectly carrying weight or reaching for something. When we begin to integrate the proper functioning of the lower body in relation to the upper body, we can move with more efficiency, breath access, and better digestion and circulation. This becomes particularly crucial during pregnancy due to the radical increase of weight and fluids. In this practice, you will learn: Baddha Konasana (Cobbler Pose) w/Cactus Arms; Thumbs in Armpits; Oval Breathing, Exhilarating Toe Pose w/ Namaste Behind Back; Garudasana (Eagle Pose) Arms; Gomukhasana (Cow Pose) Arms, Counter Toe Pose, Gomukhasana (Cow Pose) Arms and Legs.

Getting into an upside down position can help a breech, an oblique (diagonal lie), or posterior baby reposition themselves into the head-down orientation for birth. During a forward-leaning inversion, the uterus briefly hangs by the cervical ligaments; returning to an up-right position relaxes the ligaments. Babies that are not in a head-down anterior position OR malpositioning of the uterus often put pressure on pelvic nerves, causing pain in the back, groin, and legs. Notice wrist options. These asanas also help release lower back and hips which, due to the additional weight of the pregnant belly, often experience discomfort.In this practice, you will learn: (Cat Cow Pose), (Cat Cow w/ Infinity Circle Hips), Adho Mukha Svanasana (Downward Dog Pose), Variation on Adho Mukha Svanasana (Three-Legged, Open-Hipped Downward Dog Pose), (Dolphin Pose), (Three-Legged, Closed-Hip Dolphin Pose), Setu Bandha (Bridge Pose) w/ variations.
