Welcome to Yoga for beginners - an online course led by Jenny Strandberg is here to introduce 4 easy yoga practices to transform your daily routines to support a healthier and happier lifestyle.

Before you start practicing yoga, it's important to know a little bit about the history and the roots of the practice.

The word 'Yoga' is a Sanskrit word that could be translated to 'to join' or 'to unite'. Yoga practice is a union between the body, mind, and spirit. This course is bringing the aspects of mindfulness to your practice.

Practicing yoga has many physical and emotional benefits, such as activating and energizing the body, increasing flexibility, strength, and stability in the body, as well as releasing stress and anxiety.

Yoga originates from India and is widely practiced across the Globe. Yoga is not a religion. Practicing yoga does not demand or discriminate against any religious beliefs - it's an open practice for all. The teachings of yoga can be applied in a way that respects your beliefs and practices.

This course consists of an introduction, 4 short 15-25min yoga practices, and a bonus track for practicing mindfulness. This course doesn't require any previous experience and has no requirements for equipment. You will be introduced to some of the beginner level yoga poses (asanas) and movement sequences. In this course, there are no tests or assignments - you can practice and review the videos as many times as you like and ideally, they will become a part of your daily routine.

Practice from the comfort of your home, wherever and whenever it suits you best!
