Caley, I’m 68 and have been doing yoga for 6 months to strengthen my core and improve my flexibility. I stumbled upon your video and I must say I was doing the poses wrong. Your instruction is excellent and easy to follow. Especially about stacking from the ground up. I have felt a tremendous improvement in a short time just from watching your video. I only do standing poses for now but I’m working my way to the floor. Thank you for job well done. I have watched many yoga videos and yours is by far the best👍 Michael in Burbank CA

@@mikeagresta Thanks Mike... I am starting at a hot yoga place... it's only 95 degrees (compared to bikrum 105) but trying to keep pace for 60 minutes is an absolute ass-kicker.... People were surprised I was able to stay in the room for the whole 60 minutes but I am determined to "get there" .... I already feel better after a couple of visits.... Amazing how we take our youth and health for granted !

This is literally the best instructional video I've come across. I've been doing yoga for more than 2 years now and I realized how wrong I was doing all of these basic poses. No wonder I felt so much pain and tension afterwards. But I'll make sure I do it properly next time. Thanks a lot!❤

Others have also said this, but I very much enjoyed how thoroughly Caley covered each pose. She not only showed the right way to do it, but she also went over the common wrong ways to do it and how those wrong ways would look or feel. I found mistakes in how I have been doing several of these poses, and I feel like I have gained understanding of each form itself rather than just trying to mimic someone else. Thank you, Caley!

Understanding the fundamentals for any subject is essential, so I watched this video to compliment what I am learning in class. And I have taken so much away from your instructions!

Caley is great in so many ways. For each pose, she 1. Keeps us honest on our form. 2. Understands the science of how it works to improve our spinal alignment and the resulting associated benefits (e.g. core strength, flexibility, posture, balance), 3. Translates complex medical concepts into lay terms. 4. Isn’t too hard to look at 😉

Best instructional video for yoga poses! I just started yoga, got my 2nd class today. My wife has been doing it for years. I showed her this video and she dislikes instructional videos on anything, she agreed this is one of the best instructions on staying stacked and in alignment. It's also to the point, no nonsense and easy to watch. Besides showing the proper way, she also addresses some of the common mistakes. After watching this a few times, I feel more confident to show up to class now.

So I just tried starting yoga as I've become very inflexible over the past few years, I felt lost, that I wasn't doing anything right, in pain (largely due to stiffness) and an instructor that yelling at me to do things that I didn't understand, like drive down the hill (I live in Houston, there are no hills) and he kept telling me to breathe properly, (I was breathing properly, I just couldn't make those weird pig noises). Anyway, it had me feeling very discouraged, like I just didn't understand anything and I felt the instructor was frustrated. I say all of this because I want to let you know how helpful this video is. By simply taking the time to explain how to position the body and why the body should be positioned that way allows me to understand what I am doing well and what I am doing wrong, it allows me to know what to work on to improve, and I fell better in my body when I practice, thank you so much for your thoughtful, and thorough, explanation.

As a beginner in yoga (started attending classes about 2-weeks ago), and viewed your 18 Basic Yoga Poses ... Excellent explanation on some of the nuances of each pose and the position of the various parts of the body as a whole! I enjoyed your emphasis on the foundation and the various alignment and angles of the body parts relative to each other. Again... and excellent video and explanation on the various yoga poses for beginners like myself. I haven't had a chance to research, but do you have any videos on the breathing aspect (i.e. timing on breathing relative to each pose/movement or the basics on where the breath is being targeted)? Example: breathe in thru your nose with tongue to the roof of the mouth with a slow breath inhaling flow to the lower portion of lungs (focusing on the 2nd-chakra /sacral chakra) and expanding the lower lungs and not the upper portion. Pause for 5-seconds, slowly exhaling your breath targeting/clearing/stimulating each subsequent chakra while the breath is exhaled through your mouth and the lower lung being deflated? I'm still eager to learn, so forgive me for these potentially "nonsense" type questions/examples. Again, an excellent video.

Yeah, I know every man on earth are not same but doesn't mean that we all are here only to devour her beauty like a beast....we all are also appreciating her skills and the way she demonstrates. And inside your mind you also know that prettiness does matter; don't get this discriminating or something else....this is true. Just tell me one thing- if you are a woman, wouldn't you try to look beautiful in man's eye?? This is not a crime........it's natural.
