Yoga For Beginners at Home (15 minute) 30 Day Challenge Day 1

Yoga for beginners at home (15 minute class) 30 day yoga challenge : welcome to day 1. In our first class, we'll focus a lot on ujjayi breathing (pranayama), the natural curves in the spine and how to support them.

We'll practice such yoga poses as: apanasana (wind relieving pose!), table, cat and cow, and of course savasana which is our final resting pose. Be sure to push pause if you need a break and also, drink plenty of water throughout this 30 day challenge.

Four years after discovering Lesley's channel, today I am restarting this practice to honour Lesley and her wonderful family who put me on my yoga journey. Sending Duke and his family love and warmth <3

[RandiRu]

I'm restarting my yoga journey (again) and of course, there is no one I would rather turn to than Leslie. This is the first time I've practiced since you passed, and I just wanted to say how much I love your practice. Love to you and your family.

After deciding that today was THE DAY I would start yoga, I turned to YouTube for beginner videos. I made it through 6 minutes of a so-called beginner video, and my hips and shoulders were screaming at me to stop.

Disappointed at my inability to hold some of the poses, I wondered if yoga wasn't what I had originally thought.

Thankfully, after a peptalk with my muscles, I decided to try this video.

I feel like this 30 day course is precisely what I need to ease my out of shape body into longer, more difficult routines.

Thank you, Fightmaster, for breaking down the basics for us who wish to learn!

After two years i decided to do yoga again and everyday.. i felt sooo in the moment and almost cried. Thank you leslie.

Omg i just found out about her death I’m so sad, i hope she found peace in heaven. Thank you for everything, sending love to the family

[dj_DERANGED]

my heart goes out to her loved ones. I also am restarting my yoga journey, and the first thing I did was search for this video playlist. I've done this 30 day series twice before and this time im doing it for her and all she has done for the yoga community. Rest in Paradise.

Thank you for all of your wonderful content Lesley, you've inspired and motivated me and kept my passion for yoga alive. Your content stood out to me, you have an accessible, wonderful nature that few other yogis around the web have, I had a thorough look at other channels before I knew that I had 100% found the one for me. Your videos are both calming and energising. It's heartbreaking that you are no longer with us, but you have bestowed such a wonderful gift on so many lives all over the world. I started with you in the UK years ago, carried on working out with you when I moved to Australia and then kept my practice going in tiny hotel rooms whilst I travelled around Asia for 9 months. I've told friends, acquaintances, people at bus stops and airports (anyone who'll listen really) about how wonderful your channel is. Now, back in the UK, I continue to find motivation in your voice, your movements and your energy, all transcending the screen and making me feel like I've escaped this realm.

I'm eternally grateful to you, the mentor and friend that I've never met but felt like I've known for years.
Thank you.

Starting this today. Your voice is so soothing and allows me to focus on my practice, which I normally have trouble doing because my mind is everywhere. Thank you so much! I love your videos!

[maryhatches]

Starting again today after experiencing extreme grief over your loss. I hope you have found your place in the stars. Sending love and light to your family. Namaste Lesley - thank you for your legacy.

[mooniebo]

This is the first video I've found that is TRULY for beginners. Thank you. Namaste. <3

Lesley was the reason why I started yoga. Plus we shared the same name just different spelling. I haven’t practiced in a while but came back to her channel to start all over again. RIP Lesley. Thank you for inspiring me.❤

[debbiemiller]

I've done this 30 days of beginner yoga with Lesley once before, revisiting again. So nice to hear Lesley's voice!! Miss Her!!

[peglamphier]

My daughter turned me on to a another of her 30 day series. It was too much for me, but this one is really good for an old, slightly fat beginner. I do each day twice, once in the morning and once before bed and I've come to really look forward to the evening ones in particular. So relaxing for sleeping. I'm one week in but have every intention of making it the whole 30 days. Thank you Leslie, wherever you are.

[Fauna-gtii]

this is such a wholesome and gentle practice. I'm so sorry to hear about Lesley's passing, she has become such a light in my daily practice and made yoga genuinely enjoyable for me.

[twinboys]

Day 1 done, I’m getting back into yoga so appreciate this slow and gentle class. Namaste

[csnead]

this is the first day of my yoga journey! I struggle with an anxiety disorder and I am loving for strength and ways to control it! I loved your class! I really think yoga is a good fit for me! thank you and namaste!

I've been wanting to do some form of exercise for quite some time now. I was diagnosed 19 years ago with Fibromyalgia & was always athletic & active. But when I got sick, it all stopped. Everything in my body hurt. When I would try to exercise, I simply couldn't. I hated what had happened to my body. I felt betrayed by it. I woke up this morning with my mind made up that I was going to find something I could handle. I thought I'd give yoga a try, which brought me here. This was exactly what my body needed. Yes, it hurt. However the meditative part of it really contributed to helping me ease into the start of actually following through with the exercises. I did not feel overwhelmed. It was very slow & gradual. As much as my body is aching, I actually feel pretty good. For years I cried thinking I'd never be able to get fit or get back to feeling physically active. This has allowed me to feel like I'm doing something that will help me without making me cry with frustration. Thank you for putting this video out there. This is exactly what I needed!!

[anaclaudianarciso]

Starting again, I miss you Leslie ;-;

[nathalienadeau]

Beginning. a new journey today! I have suffered from chronic back pain, due to a work injury, for several years now...
This is new beginning, a new time. I will not let this injury bring me down!!!

[nicolekessler]

This is the 3rd time I've started the beginners yoga videos. I've completed them twice but do to some injuries, (not related to the videos) I've had to start again to regain strength. When I'm able to do yoga my days are calmer, my thinking is clearer and my reactions are more thoughtful. I appreciate having these videos to come back to whenever I need them. I'm so happy to start again. Thank you!

[lookingforsure]

i've tried a lot of "beginner" yoga classes found on youtube but i have to admit that this one is the only one i could actually go through. the others are way to hard for a first time yogi. thank you for this lesley !
