Hatha and Yin yoga are typically the best starting points for beginners.

• Hatha uses a slower pace where each pose is held long enough to understand proper form.
• Yin yoga focuses on stillness in each posture, encouraging both physical release and mental relaxation.
• Restorative yoga uses props like bolsters and blankets to support the body in restful positions.
• Slow Flow or Beginner Vinyasa links breath to movement at a gentle, accessible pace.

Look for classes labelled "Beginner," "Gentle," or "Slow Flow" to ensure a comfortable experience.

The eight limbs of yoga, outlined by Patanjali, form a complete guide to ethical living and spiritual growth.

• Yama — moral guidelines such as honesty, non-harming, and avoiding greed
• Niyama — guidelines for personal conduct and spiritual cultivation
• Asana — physical postures that build strength, flexibility, and body awareness
• Pranayama — breath control techniques that regulate energy flow
• Pratyahara — withdrawal of the senses from external distractions
• Dharana — concentrated focus as preparation for meditation
• Dhyana — sustained meditation where awareness flows without interruption
• Samadhi — the ultimate stage of union and inner bliss
