I am very much a beginner in the ‘yoga space’.

I have bought the books and tried to learn more about the spiritual practice, not just the physical asanas but to be honest I am not a spiritual person so I am finding that bit tricky.

But, I am very much enjoying the physical aspect of creating a habit. I have scoured the internet for people starting out in yoga being lumpy and uncoordinated only to find after a few years of doing yoga they are svelte, graceful and swanlike. Despite the multitude of yoga progress videos out there I am yet to find any where they started like me! So, I am to be the first.

I have bought myself a 90s camcorder, hence the grainy footage. I hate using my phone for all these kinds of things so that is why the camcorder – plus I wanted to video myself to see if any of the poses actually look what they are supposed to, spoiler alert – they don’t.

Here’s a couple of screenshots of the videos to whet your appetite. Whilst I am on day 45 of a consecutive yoga practice, this is a lifelong journey so these are still very much ‘before’ shots.
