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
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!
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!
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. 💓
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.
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 😀
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 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.
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.
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. ❤
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 😊
A true beginner here! I have tried a few other “beginner” videos here on RUclips 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!
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!🥰
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!!🥰🫶🏻
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 🙏🏼
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 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 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
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.
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 🙏
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!
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 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!
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!!!
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. ❤
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.
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!
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!
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.
Hi, I'm a beginner getting back to yoga after years of health issues and I found a few poses challenging (specially hip opener) but after a few days of practice I noticed how my body started adjusting and stretching. Great workout, thank you 🌟
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
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 ! ❤
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.
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 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!
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.
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🙏
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 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.
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. 😌
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!
Echoing others here-- I'm not a beginner but I've been neglecting my practice for the last month or so and wanted something slow to ease me back in. This accomplished that, it was a wonderful class. Thank 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
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.
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.
I am not a beginner but I have Parkinson's disease. I find this practice helpful and accessible. Hope there will be more of this kind of practice. Thank you Charlie.
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.
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!!
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 🌸🕊🕉
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!
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
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!
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. 🙏🏻😊
Wonderful instruction Charlie. The build up is exactly right and the pace of your voice that accompanies the instructions is just right. Perhaps you can make your breathing more audible so that your students can cope with it better. Thanks again!
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'm fairly experienced, but this was brilliant to be able to check-in on my form, taking time to feel what's going on inside my body and slow down. I'll definitely revisit this one! :)
Just found you a few weeks ago. Hope to follow your practice. I recently lost my yoga teacher as she had her second child. I have been practicing for 4 1/2 years.
I woke up pretty tired and I found this class to be a really gentle way to wake up and also work on some strength/flexibility without it being a breathless pace. Enjoyed it! More like this please
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. 😊
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!
Charlie, thank you for sharing this video. I’m a beginner at yoga so still learning how to do the positions correctly. I love your gentle explanations of how to do each pose. PS I love the birdsong. It is very relaxing. ❤
Hi Charlie.... even though I have been practicing for years it felt so good to do this, as over the years I seem to have lost the foundation, it was relaxing as there was no where to go!Thanks :)
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!
Beautiful. I'nor advanced practicioner nor even an established intermediate, but this simple classes are just amazing. Excelent morning pratice to wake up the body❤ thanks
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 😊
Thank you so much for this practice❤ The instructions were clear and concise, making it easy to follow along without looking at the screen. 😊 The difficulty level is perfect for beginners 🥰 Would live for more videos like these because they are amazing🎉
This is the first time I've tried one of your classes, and it went very well. I've been practicing yoga off and on, mostly off unfortunately, for 52 years. Now 70 years old, I've never progressed past the beginner stage, although I've been able to do a few intermediate classes with modifications. I would like to progress though. I'm not sure how to go about it though.
Charlie, I found this class very rewarding. Personally, I consider myself in the intermediate to advanced stage, but I felt the easy flow of this one was very much needed especially during Weekend.🙏❤️
Beginner with yoga, but with a fair bit of flexibility/mobility and I really just needed something for me "rest day" after working arms yesterday. This was perfect!
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.

Hi Charlie. I am 58 years old and a complete beginner. Love the flow and transisions. This is perfect, 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!

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.
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!
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!
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.
Hi, I'm a beginner getting back to yoga after years of health issues and I found a few poses challenging (specially hip opener) but after a few days of practice I noticed how my body started adjusting and stretching. Great workout, thank you 🌟
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
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 ! ❤
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.
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 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!
Thank you. You gifted instructor valuing everyone.
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.
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🙏
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 😊
Wonderful nice and relaxing. My body didn’t realize how badly it needed this stretch!
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.
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. 😌
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!
Complete beginner here! This is perfect! I look forward to more of your classes. Thank you.
Echoing others here-- I'm not a beginner but I've been neglecting my practice for the last month or so and wanted something slow to ease me back in. This accomplished that, it was a wonderful class. Thank 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
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.
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.
This session is perfect for beginners or those re-entering an exercise regimen. Your spirit is calming and sweet. Thank you 😊
I am not a beginner but I have Parkinson's disease. I find this practice helpful and accessible. Hope there will be more of this kind of practice. Thank you Charlie.
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.
I'm an absolute beginner. I just started working on it with you two weeks ago. Thank you a lot!
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!!
Thank you so so much for calling out and describing the poses !! ❤
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 🌸🕊🕉
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. 🌄
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!
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
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!
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
That was amazing! Birds singing, modifications available, great explanation of poses. Thank you very much!
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. 🙏🏻😊
Wonderful instruction Charlie. The build up is exactly right and the pace of your voice that accompanies the instructions is just right. Perhaps you can make your breathing more audible so that your students can cope with it better. Thanks again!
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'm fairly experienced, but this was brilliant to be able to check-in on my form, taking time to feel what's going on inside my body and slow down. I'll definitely revisit this one! :)
I’m basically a beginner again. This class was wonderful. Love the slow transitions pose to pose.
Hi! Thank you for the class. I am not a complete beginner but am totally out of shape and this was very gentle to start getting back into a routine.
Just found you a few weeks ago. Hope to follow your practice. I recently lost my yoga teacher as she had her second child. I have been practicing for 4 1/2 years.
I woke up pretty tired and I found this class to be a really gentle way to wake up and also work on some strength/flexibility without it being a breathless pace. Enjoyed it! More like this please
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. 😊
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’m 52 and you are changing my life
Charlie, thank you for sharing this video. I’m a beginner at yoga so still learning how to do the positions correctly. I love your gentle explanations of how to do each pose. PS I love the birdsong. It is very relaxing. ❤
I've started yoga after 10 years. This was perfect. Thank you.
Hi Charlie.... even though I have been practicing for years it felt so good to do this, as over the years I seem to have lost the foundation, it was relaxing as there was no where to go!Thanks :)
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
Namaste. May your day be filled with joy as your classes brings joy to others.
I have just done this .I'm 60..I found it very good.Her voice was kind .I will be coming back
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!
Laid back basic sequence. 25 years of yoga and it felt great. Thanks!
Beautiful. I'nor advanced practicioner nor even an established intermediate, but this simple classes are just amazing. Excelent morning pratice to wake up the body❤ thanks
Really nice to take the slow pace and do 30 minutes. Thank you ❤😊
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 am Afzal from pakistan 66 years old
It is an excellent exercise, i started to do it , and I felt very improvement in my body.
Thank you very much.
Thank you so much for this practice❤ The instructions were clear and concise, making it easy to follow along without looking at the screen. 😊 The difficulty level is perfect for beginners 🥰 Would live for more videos like these because they are amazing🎉
This is the first time I've tried one of your classes, and it went very well. I've been practicing yoga off and on, mostly off unfortunately, for 52 years. Now 70 years old, I've never progressed past the beginner stage, although I've been able to do a few intermediate classes with modifications. I would like to progress though. I'm not sure how to go about it though.
Charlie, I found this class very rewarding. Personally, I consider myself in the intermediate to advanced stage, but I felt the easy flow of this one was very much needed especially during Weekend.🙏❤️
Really like this class. Have arthritis and have had hip replacement so this is very joint-friendly for me.
Beginner with yoga, but with a fair bit of flexibility/mobility and I really just needed something for me "rest day" after working arms yesterday. This was perfect!
Thanks dear Charlie🙏❤ this was the 15th day I practiced with your beginners yoga 🧘♀️ I enjoyed it.
Thank you, I'm very happy to follow your training..
Every morning I follow your practice
