Hello friends I hope you enjoy this practice and find it accessible if you are a complete beginner . Lots of you were missing the sound sound of the birds so I hope you enjoy listening to them x
Great class. Thank you! So glad found your videos!!
Thank you
Great cueing and everything Charlie! I can see how this would be so accessible and helpful for beginners! So good to see!
Thank you for this slowly lesson. I practis yoga for hole of my live and are locking for a lesson until a age of 60. Your voise is very sensitv & fine. Thank's.
Enjoying your yoga very much thanks a lot. Have you thought about to end the session with 3 aum (om)? I love to do it and share the sound with all other being too…🙏🕊🌈🌏🌍🐛🧘🏼♀️🧘♂️🧘🏾
What most impresses me is the care that you take insuring proper form. With some instructors, it's all about getting to the next pose, but you really take the time to sit with each pose, and I appreciate that. This was the best child's pose and downward facing dog that I've ever experienced.
Thank you so much for your recognition! It means the world to me that you appreciate the time I take to detail the things that I feel are important. Thank you for your feedback 😀
Perfect timing! While I’m not a beginner I was feeling very tight and I was looking for a flow a bit slower for today. This was perfect! Please don’t stop the more advanced classes, but these are great thrown in here and there as beginner/maintenance days. Thanks Charlie!
exactly 😊
something this practice helped me realize was that some of the hardest parts of yoga aren't how complex or difficult the pose is, but rather how deep you can go in stillness. i've started doing your intermediate yoga classes so i've been caught up in the "more, more, more" mindset. this class helped me slow down and was actually pretty challenging.
thank you Charlie for giving us the chance to take care of ourselves
@charliefollows I totally agree with this comment and love your cuing and had this realisation that I can slow down more to really embrace the present moment and the movement. I do find Vinyasa challenging but love it and hope you will do more beginner videos regularly. Thank you for doing what you do. 💓
Charlie, at 67 I have always done some sort of workout. The past 4 years I had a lot of pain, to the point I could no longer do much. After doc appts, chiro appts, massage appts, you name it, nothing helped. FINALLY, my insisting that it just wasn’t old age I was diagnosed with severe spinal stenosis. Long story short, had surgery 2 mths ago and I thank God my pain is gone!!! I’ve been walking but I feel tight and stiff. Came across your videos, along with millions of others but your sweet gentle spirit told me I should try this. Gosh, I just did it now for the 1st time and boy, I’m sooo tight!!! But I will keep at it! My body tells me it needs this. I look forward to progressing!! Thank you!
Absolutely love this one. 81 year old beginner & I so appreciate your complete instructions & slow pace. And yes, love hearing the birds & seeing the fish. Impressed that you continued through the rain. Thank you. I love your classes, Charlie.
I’m far from “advanced” and even find some of intermediate poses challenging so it’s great to have these beginner classes every once in a while. Thank you.
Thank you for joining me for this one, I’m glad it is useful for you to do.
bradley 58yr old. loved the beginner class this video. did a 20min 4 days ago. did another 20 mins 3 days ago of another . now found yours for 30 mins. so here goes. you asked for comments so. feet pointed out flat is very tough but after a few its better. same when you fold toes and try to sit back on heels. didnt realize i had lost all my flexibility in my feet. explain to your beginners this pain. cobra is tuff even feel like im almost doing a push up having to push hard to even get anything that resembles cobra. but im going to keep working with you. the start sitting Indian style is even hard for the stiff neck like me..example..when i fight to get to indian style i can tell why you use it because my body was telling me i should be able to do it. and the closer i got to it and the longer i did it the better it felt. but my whole routine looked and felt very sloppy. thank you for the lesson. when i got to indian style my hands are no where near my knees. my arms fell towards my knees and touches them just below the elbow. even relaxing in that pose was hard but felt better as i went. sitting there you said go hands together then above head. to start getting my hands straight above my head and then extended was hard but you ask to fingers together and point psalms to sky just would not happen so i never got to the extend to back behind head to stretch abs. i tried my best to mock your shape but my body was forsaken me bad. i had no idea i have gotten this stiff. another fact for you pros. stiff muscled bound knuckled heads like me are not breathing slow in and outs. about mid way through i sounded like i was on a jog. breathing like i was doing reps on the weight bench. Im so ashamed that ive let my body go like this. im 6 ft even 200 lbs. got a little extra pounds on me but didnt think it was that bad. thank you again because i found your temperament appealing and you kept me honest for the whole thing. back to indian style. when you ask to stretch one arm up and over to stretch the sides i found because my balance was so bad that i couldnt steady hold that stretch. i know relaxing and steady breathing is part of the yoga thang but i found myself getting to excited and not steady breathing. its something i know i need to work on. i will tell you the reason i have turn to you. i watched a documentary on "Diamond Dallas Paige" a wrestler. he said his body had gone to the crusher. he said his x wife got him into yoga and he said it healed everything about his broken and battered body. but he also said it is tuff. but i showed up and glad to bring you into my home. thank you again and appreciate you much. question ? should i do this routine once or twice a day or should i do it once every other day. and should i find another beginner routine of yours to do. ?
Practice is the key to improving. Once every day is best but not essential. Try other beginner classes too.
And before you know it you'll see improvement ☺️
I'm 53 and have been doing yoga almost every day for 7 months. My posture, flexibility and balance have all improved immensely 😀
Not a beginnger, just wanted something slow and simple to end my day! This was exactly what my body needed!
Was amazing, Charlie!!! 😊 🙏
Thank you! 😘🤗🇦🇷
It's my first time doing yoga and it was very comfortable to me, specially the pace and the amazing flow from one pose to the next. And the time really flied!, i started the video thinking i didn't know if i will be able to do it completly, then doing it i was surprise when came the end!
I will do it again a few times and then try another of your beginners classes.
Thank youuu!!! ❤❤❤
And the place it's so beautiful and calm, with the birds and the rain at the end... ❤❤❤
As a beginner who has tried a few different yoga videos, this was one of my favorites!! Apart from how well you walk us through the movements, I also really enjoyed how calming you & the background noise/visuals were! Will definitely be coming back to this channel for more yoga videos!!
I'm a huge fan of your all level and intermediate flows, but gosh I love to come back to these during my moon cycle to keep my body moving but in a beautiful gentle way. Always a pleasure ^.^
I am pretty much a complete beginner and I find your classes very accessible and accomplishable with the modifications that you suggest. I really like your attitude and the atmosphere that you create within these videos. Thank you!
I appreciate the instructions on how to actually be in the pose (like downward dog - your hips are supposed to be up?? Ah. Now's it much more challenging), as well as the variety! None of your classes are the same thing twice, which I absolutely prefer. :D Thank you!!!
This is one of my favorites videos. I can’t count how many times a month I choose this video to do! I do yoga in the mornings it starts my day! Thank you!
This video was so great as a beginner! Sometimes the beginner videos don’t actually feel entry level but this one really did. Thank you!!
This was wonderful. Longer videos at this pace and level are perfect for days when you are sore but know that yoga is what you need. Thank you!
Oh my Goodness Charlie. I loved the class. Thank you. The sound of the birds and the raindrops at the end. What you must need to do to give us this incredible beautiful and wonderful classes. Really appreciate this. I am coming back after hurting my lower back and am so grateful to have enjoyed this and feel great after doing it. ❤🙏🤗
I loved this session as all the other ones! The birds’ singing is a jam! Thank you Charlie for this wonderful class! ❤️🥰
I've been doing at home yoga semi-regularly for many years, but today was the first time I could do pigeon pose without knee pain! That was amazing. This felt foundational on a whole new level. I keep returning to your practices, they're so immersive. Thank you. 🙏
Outstanding quality of content. Absolutely love the clear verbal instructions, which I think is very helpful for sequences where you cannot see the screen.
I’m not a beginner, but I make sure I practice everyday. Sometimes a gentle slow flow is just what the body needs particularly in the morning or evening. I love your cues and I just started your 30 day challenge. Love your videos and the beautiful backgrounds which are so calming.
i absoultely love the whole flow! i'm not a beginner with yoga by any means but i do absoultely adore restorative practices that are just a bit slower and a more gentle stretch! it was my rest day today & i appreciate this flow so much!!🥰🫶🏻
Wow!!! I approached this like climbing low grades with deliberation. It totally cleaned up my technique. Especially in plank! Content like this is teaching me how to place hands, hold body, etc. Instead of sloppily thrashing into movement, I will do this or other vids like this to build muscle memory. Thank you Charlie. ❤
I start my day with you every morning. I appreciate your soft clear directions. You are more about self care than trying to push the body beyond what is supportive. Your program is a good compliment to my more rigorous activities like biking to work or walking.
I am 72 years young and trying to add more yoga in my life . I really enjoyed this class. It helped that it is a slower pace, quite good directions and such positive encouragement. I look forward to practicing with you again.
Thank you for this class which I try and do every morning. I am a beginner and each time I do the class I can feel stronger and more balanced on each movement. I am looking forward to progressing onto your intermediate classes soon. But for now I am thoroughly enjoying this class. You are the best yoga teacher I have found on the internet and will continue to follow you. Thanks again.
Wonderful nice and relaxing. My body didn’t realize how badly it needed this stretch!
My calm energy at the end of this class is thanks to you! Your gentle guidance is what I come back for! Thank you 😘
Hi Charlie. I am 58 years old and a complete beginner. Love the flow and transisions. This is perfect, thank you!
Thank you so much for this lovely practice. As a longtime Yoga practitioner, my 75 yo body responded to all of the poses with ease and comfort. Excellent guidance throughout. Namaste!
I have started practicing with your classes a week ago. I really like your calm and down to earth style and the environments you film in. I feel SI good after the classes, thank you 🙏🏼
I’ve been meaning to comment on your videos, thank you so much for sharing your yoga experience. I am only a beginner I did start yoga years ago and wanted to restart again and your videos have helped me get back into it, I love how you don’t go super fast which means I can concentrate on ensuring I’m doing the poses correctly and I love how you explain the poses and positions. I highly recommend these for anyone wanting to doing yoga. Again thank you very much, been doing the 30 day challenge during the week as they are short and getting me into the routine, on weekends trying your longer videos as I have more time. Love your work Charlie and the scenery is always peaceful and beautiful to watch.
It’s my third day taking one of your classes after I put th kiddos to bed and I, loving this new routine, gets better lose for a quick workout and mentally calm to end my day at the same time.
This is one of my favorites so far, all the stretching is a must and the pace and ease of them is a perfect for a beginner like me, Thank you Charlie ❤ I appreciate you🙏
Thank you so much. This beginner class was perfectly timed and the explanation allowed me to really relax into the stretches. More classes at this level would be great. I love your gentle way and clear concise explanations
The scenery was serene in this one.
I fully appreciate all your efforts and I am grateful for all your classes. I may not be able to do the intermediate and advanced ones, but what I can do, I will certainly do. Thank you ever so much, Charlie.
I've been doing yoga for years Charlie, but love to do your beginners lessons. Your instructions are so clear, and there is always some improvement I can make. Thankyou 🙏
That was amazing! Birds singing, modifications available, great explanation of poses. Thank you very much!
I have been doing yoga off and on for a decade and cant seem to move past beginner level practices. That being said, this is one of the best beginner routines ive ever experienced. Thank You, Charlie!🥰
This was perfect, I’m way out of shape and not brave enough to join an actual class again yet. This made me feel great, thank you
A true beginner here! I have tried a few other “beginner” videos here on TH-cam and I couldn’t make it through the whole video. This is truly beginner friendly! I have used this video three days in a row and feel great afterward!
Thank you for a beautiful routine. I am in my 50's and finally have time for myself. I really enjoy doing yoga yo get my day started. I am definitely a beginner with some knowledge from my youth. I found your video calming and easy to follow. There were a few poses I could not physically do so I just did another stretch he'd and picked up the next move. Thanks 😊
Wow this was just the class i needed this morning.... I have been practicing yoga for nearly 10 years but I love doing beginner flows, its wonderful to have the start fresh feeling, really examine my practice and go deep! Also good if my body is feeling sore, this class stretched me in just the right way, thanks Charlie!
Complete beginner here! This is perfect! I look forward to more of your classes. Thank you.
I have been doing your yoga for more than 6 months and tried this beginners class to wake up my body in the morning. It was slow and was explained the sequence, which was really nice. Thank you.
Beautiful setting with delightful bird song to soothe the senses. I really enjoyed the slower pace to allow the breath to ease into poses. Also loved the more in depth explanation of how to find the correct posture and adaptations. Bravo for braving the rain fall at the end without any distraction from the flow. Gentle flow really helps the mind and body synch up together. Thank you Charlie.
I have been doing yoga for years and yet this was a much needed practice! Thank you. It really allowed me to go slow and focus on my body in a wonderful way.
Wonderful class! I enjoyed the slow shifts between poses - not a mad rush like some classes - as well as the clear, thoughtful instructions. Thanks Charlie!
I just wanted to say thank you so much for this entire channel. I have been trying to get back into yoga for two years after a pretty dark time in my life, and have finally introduced it fairly regularly back into my schedule. I have found a few channels with good beginner videos and lovely people but they always move too fast and I need to beak the pose to pause the video and get back in the pose, it just breaks the mindfulness/meditation part of it. As someone else said I really appreciate how you sit with each pose, and how calm and lovely your voice is. I have done this routine and also Beginners Yoga Flow to start your journey, and I really truly love doing them. So again thank you very much, I can't wait to get into the rest of your videos and check out the programs
After more than a year without practicing, i came back i felt my body really tight but i enjoyed a lot, thanks for sharing. Namaste
I enjoyed this class. I'm not really a beginner but I went a month without exercise and really needed the easy stretch. I loved listening to the sounds of the birds in your video. I found it very uplifting. ❤
Really enjoyed this yoga practice this morning! The prompts to adjust the practice are really helpful.
I'm a complete beginner and this class was absolutely wonderful! What a beautiful start to my day! Thank you so much for providing a safe caring space.
Not a beginner, but i haven't been practicing that much yoga lately and sure have lost some strength in my arms and wrists, so this was PERFECT to get back in to it. Thank you.
I'm a total beginner to yoga and I've tried a few videos. I love this class, it's been a great introduction to yoga and my 'go to' video to start the day
I am a beginner and i found this video really helps me to understand the form and enjoy every steps. Thank you Charlie. I started to love yoga by doing your videos!
I absolutely loved the flow and intensity of this. I am just returning to yoga after a few years off and some weight gain and this was a perfect reintroduction.
This was a wonderful class, Charlie! I haven't been very consistent with my practice the past couple of months and had difficulty getting back into the regular classes, so this was a great reintroduction for me. I also really appreciated taking the time to break down the poses and alignment and I was able to reasses the "bad habits" I did in the past. I hope you create more of these classes 😊
I loved this video! I've been following you for about 3 weeks now, and I love your videos. I find it a perfect mix of relaxation and a feeling of working on our stamina too. I'm starting to get hooked on the weekly playlist, which changes every week!
Thank you. You gifted instructor valuing everyone.
Thanks!
Thank you so much ☺️
Really good stuff. Love the explanations and the rhythm. Very beginner friendly. I had been looking for something to get me back into the groove after not practicing nor being able to move as much as I wanted to for a long time. This class challenged me at an accessible level, made me feel welcomed back rather than make me feel ashamed of all that I have lost in terms of strength and flexibility. After this class, I feel more serene than I have been in months, and am reminded of how healing yoga can be. Thank you for that boost in motivation.
Also an awesome class to introduce my partner to yoga. We will keep watching for sure!
Hi Charlie, this is my first comment but I have been practicing with you for almost a year now. I have reached the “intermediate/advanced” level of your classes. When I am sick and need a lighter, slower class, I come and join the beginner classes and really find them enjoyable. For feedback: I wish that when I was a beginner a long time ago, I had more poses break down (every time during your classes, I end up having questions about different angles of the pose still). I have joined your strong program for that very same reason and have found a passion for functional yoga. Thank you for this great class ! ❤
Just did a complete yoga class for the first time ever. I've been struggling with starting as I haven't found videos that are accessible enough for me. I always quit after 5 minutes as they were too hard. And while I struggled in some parts as I'm lacking some upper body strength, I still feel accomplished and confident now that I actually finished. Thank you so much for this class Charlie! Maybe this could be the start of something great. 🥰
I am a complete new beginner! Your sessions make me love yoga even more. Thanks for the detailed instructions and smooth transitions! Would love to see more beginner sessions. Thanks again, Charlie!
I just wanted to comment and say that I took my very first yoga class of any kind yesterday and it was in person. I wanted to try to better incorporate it into my life when I stumbled upon your video. The stretches this gave and how easy the positions were blew me away. Thank you so much for this!
I’m basically a beginner again. This class was wonderful. Love the slow transitions pose to pose.
Great class! Love the flow and scenery. Since you asked for suggestions, I always appreciate it when the teacher says more about how the body is to be placed in each pose. You do that a little. I could use that guidance during the pose we’re holding. For example…Where should I feel the stretch? How should the spine or hips be lining up?
But thanks for putting this lesson online!!!
this is my favorite class ever! every time i need to get back to myself i go back to it. thank you for posting this gem
I want to THANK YOU SO SO MUCH for your channel and expertise! I have been practicing restorative yoga for 20 years.. now in my late 60's.. and have been searching for someone like you to do at home... this 30 minute practice is PERFECT!
While I’m not a beginner this was perfect timing after a spring break trip with a reduction of sleep and plenty of eating out. I needed a soft day to get myself back into the habit. Thank you for this relaxing class.
This was just the practice I was looking for. I have been very ill and bedridden for the past 4 days and today I feel slightly better. I needed something much easier as I am having a hard time breathing and eating (feeling much weaker). This was very gentle on my body and exactly what I needed. Thanks
Hello Charlie!
Almost complete beginner here, 30 y/o male with a tummy. I hope this is my beginning on a new journey with consistent yoga, and I think your channel can be my path!
I can't say I didn't struggle at times, but still this set felt right amount of challenging. My greatest challenge tho, is breathing comfortably during child pose, as my air flow was restricted by my belly. Other than that, I can only say thank you!
Just need to thank you once more for your impeccable cueing. I love being able to just listen to your peaceful voice as I practice. You are so very thorough and precise that I know exactly what to do without having to look at my phone. Thank you. 😊
Amazing flow for all levels to connect to your breathing and body. Beautiful background and love the birds too!
This was a great practice! Been doing all your beginner classes for about a month and it’s been a night and day difference in my joint strength and flexibility. Thank you!!
Your guidance is really appreciated! You have a gentle and effective way of explaining positions. I’m not a beginner but this was a delightfully gentle class with the best cues. You’re an awesome teacher. Keep up the incredible work. 🙏🏻😊
This session is perfect for beginners or those re-entering an exercise regimen. Your spirit is calming and sweet. Thank you 😊
Very friendly for beginners. I’d love to see like a 30 days yoga flow to level up from a beginner to one level up
Thank you for this class. I sometimes find your intermediate classes slightly challenging, especially with balancing poses as I broke both of my wrists 2 years ago but it is good for me to keep being pushed but I like a beginner class as well, particularly when I have had a busy day. I still can’t work out where you live though but it is beautiful wherever you are!
I absolutely love everything about your classes and channel. Your shorts help clarify poses for me and your voice is so gentle and relaxing. I feel very at ease doing my practice. Thank you so much!
Thank you for your time and help. I am a complete beginner, and with your help and support I am able to improve my knowledge about yoga 🧘. Your explanations are so clear and your attitude is so remarkable. Thank you for everything. 😌
I've started yoga after 10 years. This was perfect. Thank you.
Thank you so so much for calling out and describing the poses !! ❤
I love thus class, as a student in college i sit alot and get really tight back. I really needed it today. I was stressed and that is gone! The bird were a nice relaxing background noise🐦 as a beginner this was a great class and easy to follow! Thank you so much!
I'm new to this channel and am loving it! I am looking for gentle workouts like this to do straight out of bed in the morning. 🌄
Rreally nice workout, loved your unhurried and easy pace, the spring ambient brought an extra special atmosphere in the workout! Thank you for putting this together. ❤
It was absolutely brilliant for a beginner, the gentleness and your teaching style is pure gold. Your delivery is love on the mat. I wanted to try due to recent comments...I modified for me in parts. It was just perfect for warming up my body and overworked shoulders. Thank you beautiful Charlie 🌸🕊🕉
Namaste. May your day be filled with joy as your classes brings joy to others.
Thank you so much I love gentle yoga classes in the morning, great great class!♥️♥️♥️🙏🏾🥰
Thank you so much for this. I wouldn’t say I’m a complete beginner but I have been stuck in my head for the past few days and it was really to do a class that was more accommodating, not just for beginners, but for anyone who needs it
I'm an absolute beginner. I just started working on it with you two weeks ago. Thank you a lot!
I’m 52 and you are changing my life
What a beautiful, serene place you brought us to today! So lovely to remember these places are out there, for those of us in dense urbania, like myself. This was a great class to ease back into after a couple weeks of sickness. Thank you 😊
I needed a change and your gentle yoga was relaxing and completely stretched out my body to begin my day!
Wonderful class for beginners...or for non-beginners under the weather ;). Thank you so much for all your precious classes. Namaste 💮
I'm a complete beginner and this video was great. I actually had all kinds of stuff popping and cracking when I stood up afterwards. Thank you so much for this video.
Love the calm vibes! A beginner feeling hopeful and grateful for your generosity of spirit!
