Yoga for Absolute Beginners: Sukhasana and Dandasana
In this class, David shows you how to comfortably sit on the floor in two of yoga's more common seated positions, easy cross-legged (sukhasana) and staff pose (dandasana). He also helps you understand some of the basic yoga principles as you learn how to stretch your body effectively. This class is a part of a 'Yoga for Beginners' series.

Thank you for your presence, and your presentation. At 80, overweight and out-of-shape, I truly appreciated you today. I will continue to watch your Beginners Series - because you are making it possible for me to do this. Thank you.
exactly what I needed for my first ever yoga lesson :D ditto the audio being slightly off past the midway point, but it didn't interfere with the lesson. I feel great to start the day now, thank you!
Excellent video. I have been away from the mat for several months and this is a lovely way to reinforce the basics. The audio seems to be slightly off about halfway through but it does not interfere with the lesson.
After an injury to my spine and neck this summer, this series is just what my body has needed to realign and re-energize my stagnant muscles. I've followed all of your classes David in this beginner series, very helpful. Thank you.
