Basic Yoga is suitable for beginners of all levels. It emphasizes improving the body's flexibility, strength, and balance through foundational yoga postures (known as Asana), breath control techniques (Pranayama), and the cultivation of focused awareness. The practice introduces gentle yet effective movements that help develop better body awareness and alignment while remaining accessible to complete newcomers.

Common introductory poses taught in basic yoga classes include Mountain Pose, which establishes proper standing alignment and grounding; Downward-Facing Dog, a full-body stretch that lengthens the spine, hamstrings, and shoulders while building upper-body strength; Child's Pose, a restful and comforting posture that gently stretches the back and hips and allows the practitioner to reconnect with the breath; and Warrior Pose, which strengthens the legs, opens the hips, and develops stability and confidence.

These foundational postures, practiced mindfully with proper breathing, form the core building blocks for a safe and sustainable yoga journey.
