    Default Yoga videos

    Does anyone know of some good videos or series/channels for beginners?

    Recently my body has let me know that I'm no longer 18, and maybe I need to do a little more for my joints and muscles. My current vanilla job is very physical, and when I'm camming or making clips I sometimes find myself in positions that don't really promote the best posture. I stretch here and there to make sure that I don't cramp up throughout the day, but I'd really like to try yoga for some deep conditioning of the muscles. Yoga studios in my area range from $85-200/mo for memberships, and I'm not really willing to drop that kind of cash until I know I'm going to stick with it.

    I've poked around on Yoga Zone on Hulu, as well as youtube and they both seem to have infinite selection. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed and I want to learn basic postures and terminology so I don't hurt myself or someone else if/when I'm ready to try a studio.

    I just bought the Yoga Studio app for my ipad the other day and so far I really like it.

    Look into the introductory rates of your local studios. Most offer first three classes for the price of one or 2 weeks for $X, etc. If you are in a major city (which it sounds like with those prices) a Google search would help you find some cheap community or donation based classes. I love yoga dearly and videos are just never going to compare to a live class.

    Thank you all for the suggestions! I just started the 30 Day Squat Challenge and I'm going to start trying some yoga videos today Once I learn to not kill myself by falling over at weird angles, I'm going to look into those introduction rates at studios and see what's up.
