A to Z Yoga!
Learn a new asana, or yoga pose, with me each weekend! Make sure to check in and see what letter we're at each week!
With each asana we visit, listen to your body and only do what you are able. And with yoga, if you do a pose on one side, find the same thing on the other side.
As you sit in each asana, take long deep breaths that reach your belly space.

Eagle Pose
