The traditionally Indian teaching, yoga, has more and more fans in our country. This is not surprising at all, because yoga helps a woman to maintain external and internal beauty, cope with stress, solve many health problems, prepare for pregnancy and childbirth, and much more. In order to study this ancient teaching, a modern person does not have to go to India. You can also practice yoga in your hometown.
If you decide to start doing yoga, it is advisable to consult a doctor just in case. Like any other type of physical activity, there are contraindications here. These include, for example, severe diseases of internal organs, serious injuries to the head and spine, infectious diseases of the bones, joints or nerves, and some other diseases. In the absence of such contraindications, you can safely start training.
Currently, in most cities in our country there is a selection of all kinds of health centers, where you will be offered a wide range of services, including yoga classes. There you can join the beginner group, the advanced classes, the moms-to-be, the weight loss group and the like. You can also hire a personal trainer to tailor your program to you.
In addition to health centers, there are also specialized yoga centers. Different schools focus on different aspects of learning.
Ashtangu is power yoga. She pays great attention to strength training and physical improvement of the body. Asanas are performed one after another, without stopping.
Kundalini - concentrates on working with energies and helps open the chakras. Suitable for those who want to quickly improve their emotional state.
Iyengar - specializes in detailed elaboration of each pose. This practice is ideal for beginners to get their first idea of what it means to "pull the crown towards the ceiling" and "curl the hips."
If you are not satisfied with the prices or working hours of yoga centers, as well as if there are none in your small town or village, then it is quite possible to practice yoga at home, especially for advanced users. For beginners, it is advisable to stock up on a good book or video course on this topic.
