😂 bruh, I was considering throwing my old stability ball when I saw this. It's gone 🤭 now, but it took me a few seconds to realise no one was talking to me 😅
Wow this video found its way back to me. Since then, I’ve gotten puppy and she’s the most impolite little miss I’ve ever met. She thinks me doing yoga at home is an invitation to play and chew on me 😳😂
Step#1 I gotta figure out how to do the basic version of all of those first lol😂 Actually enjoyed (not tried) yoga for the very first time via one of you videos this week. I thought I hated yoga, but your video made me genuinely want to give it another shot.
Oh Charlie, to use a much over used phrase, "the body is willing, but the flesh is weak". Since watching you and following your practices both my technique and strength have improved. Additionally, I find I have a more positive attitude, important as a sixty nine year old widower. But happily, if if I do not quite manage to replicate your positions exactly I always feel a sense of achievement at the end. Thank you.
I hope it wouldn’t sound rude but I finally find a yoga youtuber who has comparably shorter arms and legs. Coz I have short arms and legs and sometimes I found it so difficult to perform in some poses. You make me trust myself again that I can do it!
Hey I don’t take offence at all. I know how comforting it can be to see someone with a similar body, I get it all the time when I see petite women and I’m like if they can do it I can too.
I have it the other way around! I am really tall, especially my legs. And for some step through stuff I notice that I have too much limp for the amount of space it needs to move through haha. Every body has some perks and challenges in yoga :).
"Instead of hanging out passively in poses... " It's not passivity, it's yin. It's the strength that comes from control. You don't have to add yang with these moves. Surya Namaskar is a balance of yin and yang and both are already in place.
I think this is a case of “For lack of a better term” or “semantics” situation, she’s trying to describe an idea with the vocabulary available to her, someone’s idea of passivity is not the same as anothers idea of passivity, but might be used in different contexts depending on the subject they’re trying to elaborate on, and in this case she’s focusing on building physical strength. She’s not so much talking about whether yin or yang represent true yoga. Most western people don’t view yoga as a spiritual experience/practice, they see it as a practical physical practice to engage their muscles and ease their mind, so they don’t really grasp the depth of say for instance Surya Namaskar, this video is aimed at those westerners otherwise she wouldn’t be adding to something that like you said doesn’t need adding.
Love these short little instruction videos! So well explained! ❤ Curious about one thing I noticed (English is not my first language): why do you always say forwards (with an s at the end??) Isn’t it stepping forward - no s?
I honestly can't figure out how one could possibly do these positions without engaging the muscles to their right and tight placement. How can you be "passive" without falling on your face?
Mat time, not ball time Finn! Hi Charlie, I do most of these step ups, however recently a new instructor had me arrive in a squat on one foot (other leg outstretched) and then we transitioned to the other foot. I had to use my hands and the thought of lifting across seems so unobtainable that I haven’t tried. (I am an old dude with a torn meniscus). Can you suggest strengthening exercises I could do to build my strength and confidence with the aim to achieve this transition? Horse stance? Modified pistol stance or something?
Hi Charlie! I was wondering if it’s possible to build muscles and improve strenght without going to the gym and lift weights? Only by doing pilates and yoga? Do you lift weights too?☺️
Hey I can only speak from my own experience, I have never lifted weights and I have built a lot of strength through yoga so to answer your question yes you can build strength with yoga.
@@CharlieFollows Thank you for your response! I really appreciate it since I've previously trained a lot at the gym but never really found it genuinely enjoyable. However, I find yoga training genuinely enjoyable and fulfilling, but I've been hesitant because I've wanted to build muscles and strength. But I believe, just as you say, that it's entirely possible. I'm actually thinking of buying your 'yoga strong' classes. I'm really excited! You're an incredibly inspiring teacher!😊🙏🏼
It’s called Asana which is part of Yoga yoga is just asana, breath control and dhyana is s integral part of yoga, control of your mind is very important
THROW THE DAMN BALL!!!!
Ahahaha I promise I did
😂 bruh, I was considering throwing my old stability ball when I saw this.
It's gone 🤭 now, but it took me a few seconds to realise no one was talking to me 😅
Ahahaha that part of the video was so cute
Seriously that was bothering me too
I love how so many yoga instructors on yt have pets that are constantly trying to love on them! It’s so cute!

Awe thank you so much. I’m trying my best to offer progressions for each pose in every class so there’s something for everyone.

Your shorts are always so full of practical, easy to implement tips to improve or grow my practice. Thank you. Namaste
Thank you so much I’m so happy you find them helpful
When I go "no hands" it'll keep my digits free to dial for an ambulance...
Your dog wants to play
How cute is that😊
He never stops 😂

I have the same issue!

(Thank you for your videos and how you explain them)
Thank you again Charlie!!! This is exactly what I needed to learn/ know. Blessings to you and all 🙏
I love this! Simple but effective ways to improve. 💗
Thank you so much ☺️
Love your videos and motivation and always pushing us !! Thank you Charlie ! 💪🥰
The yoga mat is super neat and looks helpful
Thank you for another great video. This one is most helpful as I am 75 and need to maintain my strength X
Can you please make a few videos on muscle strengthening with yoga? I searched for it so much but couldn’t find anything.
Gorgeousness 💞
Oh wow... as always great tips! Thank yooou👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙏🏾
YES!! I do all of these things! 😊
You’re the best!!
Wow. You just basically went through my whole morning routine with an upgrade.
Love your yoga mat can you please do a video explaining the part where the feet should land thank you
Instead of being weak, try being strong!
The last one: 😳 something to aspire too, balance is the deepest struggle in my practice ☺️
❤ perfect. Yoga is for us to grow
Exactly x
Love the shorts and love the dog
Thank you Diana
Cute dog... it does not care about yoga, he only wants the ball 😂😂😂
"Instead of hanging out passively in poses... "
It's not passivity, it's yin. It's the strength that comes from control.
You don't have to add yang with these moves. Surya Namaskar is a balance of yin and yang and both are already in place.
Yeah but the question is how to gain strength in these poses. Yin doesn’t build strength
I think this is a case of “For lack of a better term” or “semantics” situation, she’s trying to describe an idea with the vocabulary available to her, someone’s idea of passivity is not the same as anothers idea of passivity, but might be used in different contexts depending on the subject they’re trying to elaborate on, and in this case she’s focusing on building physical strength.

Fantastic! Thank you! 😃👍🏻
This is really great info for me, thank you!
Thanks Theresa
Hopefully 🙏🏻 thank you!!!🎉
If you want to giggle during yoga practice, practice puppy yoga! Your pooch is so cute!
Dog wants to play..😍Thanks so helpful
Aren't our hip flexors overworked from all the sitting in a chair etc.?
Great modifications though, I will definitely implement the ones I'm able to!
Love the dog
He’s my best friend
Love these short little instruction videos! So well explained! ❤

Love your style 😊

I need this mat
You have an airedale!!!???? I knew there was a reason i loved your videos so much. I have an airedale as well named Kevin
Yogi women are goddess ❤

Your dog is trying to catch your attention please listen to him 😍

Nice..pic.. lovely..💕
✨✨✨I N S P I R A T I O N 🤍🕉️🤍
Wonderful
Excellent
that letting go of hands when standing up leg in front was 0_0
Nice shortlegging ♥️♥️❤❤
Awesome
Thanks charlie😍😘❣️
You are welcome Ivy
Yoga is not for building strength, it is for building mindfulness
Dog said instead of Yoga, just play with me, we both can burn calories ❤
You have a ball to throw! What yoga move is that - onward dog? 😂😂😂
Very good
Where did you get your mat?
It's from liforme
Essa entende do que fala 👍
Instead of doing all of these, try balance a bottle of water upright no matter what position
❤
💝
Nice form ... looking good keep it up..
Your dog wants you to play with him
Ball is life for Finn 😂
You might want to change your thumbnail. All I see is , "do you want to build strength with yoga?" "NO"
Passively hang? So where I do yoga we don’t hang there and chill. Yoga means to let it look chill but all your muscles are working
Cool
Thank you 🙏
Where’s your accent from, Charlie? Really struggling to place it
Instead of doing yoga inside your tiny dank studio apartment, go out in the sun in your beautiful backyard. 🌞These were good tips. Pardon my sass
Haha I enjoyed the sass ☺️
She looks 4'11"
I’m 5’
and so what?
Damnn.....she is elastane inside....
I think someone is trying to get your attention 😂😂
He is always like this, I am trying to teach him patience. It isn't going very well 😅
Why can't yoga people talk normally without trying to psycho smile at me?
Instead of doing yoga...
👍👏👏🥰🇦🇷
Did yall know yoga is worshipping poses of other Gods that are not Yaweh
Y her legs are so small 😅
👎👎
