Today I started my first yoga practice! I have practiced yoga before but I have never been this serious about gaining strength and flexibility. I have danced since I was 5 years old and gained flexibility over the years but I stopped dancing when I was 17. Over the past 3 years, I have lost flexibility and strength. I want to get back into the habit of being fit and healthy and this is why I chose yoga. Today I laid out my mat, put on my yoga wear on and put on some calming music. I started stretching my arms, then neck and then legs to get warmed up. I have taken some yoga classes before so I knew where to start but after getting warmed up, I felt a little lost. So I decided to try and find an app that had an instructor. The app is called YOGA. It has multiple different lessons to do different things for your body. Every lesson has a video to follow along with.

After my yoga practice today, I feel more relaxed and I am probably going to be a bit sore tomorrow, especially after not having stretched in a while. For my next yoga practice, I am going to focus on stretching which will allow me to gain more strength.
