Yoga poses (yoga exercises) are designed to help improve well-being and the functioning of the body as a whole. This section describes the basic asanas for beginners that beginners should learn at the beginning of practice. The described asanas are traditional and practiced as a base in most classical schools and types of yoga. Today, there are a large number of poses that are authentic, as well as transformed from basic asanas described in ancient scriptures. Initially, there were only a few dozen basic yoga poses necessary for mastering the body and bringing it into a state of balance. But after the popularization of yoga in the West, many “author’s schools” and “patented” poses appeared, which are not listed in the original sources, and may also differ in names and descriptions. For your convenience, all poses have names in Sanskrit and their Russian equivalent is also given, contraindications, advantages, and step-by-step instructions for each asana are prescribed. The list is compiled in alphabetical order.

And I like Setu Bandha Sarvangasana - Bridge Pose, you perfectly feel all the spinal endings of the spine, the back relaxes all the spinal muscles, lightness and flexibility appear. It is better to start the exercise after warming up all the muscles to correctly distribute the load on the back. A wonderful exercise.

Each pose in yoga favorably affects the development of a certain group of muscles. For this reason, you should not use only a few poses, but should maximize the use of all that you are able to perform.

I really like the Vrksasana pose. I stand straight, raise my right leg and press it against the inner side of my left thigh, my toes should be pointing down, I take my knees to the side. I breathe slowly and evenly. I stand until the muscles begin to stretch. As soon as I start to feel pain, I stop, it means that the muscles have enough load for today.
