Great things to know
How do I use the cards?
BEGINNERS:
This is a great way to get inspired and get started with your practice. Start by studuing the sun salutation cards and then do as many rounds you need to warm up your body.
Continue to the standing poses and do as many as you feel comfortable with, in the beginning just a few poses is enough. Move forward to the seated poses and try out a few of those, in the beginning starting with just a few poses from every section is enough. After the seated poses continue to backbend (start with the modification of the full pose or feel free to skip this pose) Remember to respect your body and limits. Finish your practice with some of the finishing poses and a long nice Savasana.
