r there any good yoga poses that a 13yr old guy can do im just starting. ps 4 the record i am straight|||First, doing yoga doesn%26#039;t mean you are gay. I am in a yoga class that has 5 male members, all obviously masculine, several of them are married. So toss out that stupid stereotype. :)
Also, yoga is NOT just for people with back pain or problems as one poster has insinuated. It is excellent for increasing flexibility, strength, and stamina and is an excellent supplement for any other physical activity or sport (weight lifting, circuit training, running, etc.) I highly recommend it to everyone I meet.
As for yoga poses for you at 13, go ahead and start any beginner series.
I found a link to a yoga video for teens, it sounds like a great video to me. I%26#039;m actually going to order it for my 11 yo son :)

Hope this helped!|||why? you%26#039;re young and probably don%26#039;t have severe back pain or something... I understand my dad sometimes needs yoga... unless you want to be a gymnast?
umm... there%26#039;s one that i know thats hard to do: do the flamingo pose (left leg bent) then hold your left foot with your left hand and then reach foreward with your right hand and and push your left leg back and keep in balance.|||%26quot;ps 4 the record i am straight%26quot;
Wow. Just because you wrote that in, you%26#039;re probably kinda gay. But seriously, I%26#039;m sure that there are lots of yoga poses for beginners, I just don%26#039;t know any.|||the basics. look up beginners yoga online or buy a book. also, find a yoga studio near you to take a beginners class. i%26#039;ve done all of those things....|||for beginners Inyengar Yoga

Yoga??????????????
does anyone use yoga?
how has it helped you?
and what kind of yoga do you do?|||I orginally started Yoga because of my poor posture (I tended to hunch forward). 3-4 years later, I achieved better posture in addition to other benefits:
- better flexibility
- better balance - I can hike more efficiently now, esp. in uneven surfaces. When I play volleyball, I land with more control.
- less back ache
- more productive sleep
Other benefits that I believe are there include:
- detoxification: deep stretches tend to %26#039;wring out%26#039; the lactic acids in the muscles. I think there are less toxins floating around in my body overall now.
- more upper body strength without weight training; however, I am still not convinced that Yoga can give you the same upper body strength as weight training, so I still do weights.|||yes i do some do yogic esxercise relating to breathing(praynama)
if done under proper guidance these yogic exercises can prove good for wait loss and strengthens one%26#039;s immune system.|||Yes I do. I use Yang-Minyasa yoga and OH. MY. GOD. Does it work! I am more relaxed, I have less pains in my back, I sleep better, and I learned so much on the way.
If you want a video to start out: Hot Body Cool Mind
Is a really amazing video. I HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend it.|||Dear
Yoga is the best form of excercise which tones both body and mind. Dont try DIY kit type - proper guidance is a must - at least 3 days training required to get the correct postures. Discuss with the trainer and learn only a few things which u can do, and do it REGULARLY.
I am doing this for a long time, keeping weight at 75kg, height 175cm, eats lots of food, and enjoying life.|||I used to do Iyengar yoga but now do Ashtanga yoga. Ashtanga additionally teachers you how do breath. I highly recomment it.
I also do mobility drills every morning for my joints.
Results are a much better posture and a fealing of wellbeing. I used to need massages; want to treat myself to a movie etc. I find now that I never need a massage anymore; and I feel so good just walking down the street, that the last thing I want to do is stay seated indoors.|||I do Hatha Yoga and I love it! I%26#039;ve been doing it for a very short time but I do 35 minutes everyday and in the first week I lost 2 pounds....it%26#039;s fun too|||I started doing yoga because I wanted to be more flexible and to help my back. I remember I was nervous about going to that first class. I started with basic Hatha yoga and just fell in love with yoga. Since then, I have tried all kinds of yoga, including hot yoga, power yoga, ashtanga yoga, kundalini, etc. I go 2-3 times a week, now, mostly to power yoga. Here%26#039;s what it%26#039;s done for me:
-went from size 8 to size 4
-went from being very inflexible to very flexible
-back pain is gone
-energy is way up
-sleep better at night
-entire body is toned and strong
-have more patience - with myself, my body, with others
-can do awesome handstands

wai lana yoga. its on tv. i also look on yoga websites and learn the moves.|||What is yoga?
Yoga is the best and most time-tested path to physical and mental well-being known to mankind. While some people think of yoga simply as physical exercise, it is actually a complete system for overall health and well-being. It includes everything from physical postures, personal hygiene, and a healthy diet to premeditation, breathing, and relaxation techniques. The most advanced forms of meditation and self-realization are also a part of yoga. Wai Lana鈥檚 workouts focus on yoga鈥檚 physical techniques.
Why do yoga?
Like many forms of exercise, yoga asanas effectively stretch and strengthen your body. The greatest benefits of yoga asanas, however, come from their profound effects on the internal systems of the body. By bending, stretching, twisting, and flexing in the various postures, you bathe your internal organs with oxygenated blood and prana, also known as life force energy or chi. Yoga asanas soothe and tone your nerves and regulate the endocrine system, which is responsible for the production of hormones鈥攐ne of the keys to both physical and mental health. They also improve digestion and elimination, strengthen the respiratory system, and tone the reproductive organs. Although yoga techniques like asanas, breathing, and relaxation are extremely effective in relieving stress, it is Yoga Sound meditation that relieves deep-seated stress and anxiety, enabling you to experience yoga%26#039;s greatest gifts: spiritual happiness and inner peace.
Wai Lana
It would be difficult, if not impossible, to find anyone who has had as much influence as Wai Lana in increasing the worldwide appreciation of the beauty and benefits of the ancient art of yoga. Wai Lana%26#039;s internationally aired TV series attracts a huge audience and has played a significant part in the skyrocketing popularity of yoga. Click here to read Wai Lana鈥檚 biography.
What is Pilates?
Derived from ancient yoga asanas, the Pilates exercise system was formulated by Joseph Pilates over 80 years ago for more specific and limited purposes. Although Pilates is not a complete balanced or holistic exercise and health system, it is quite useful. Pilates focuses mainly on cultivating core strength in the body and lengthening the spine. Practiced for decades by dancers, Pilates has become popular in recent years for its largely aesthetic body sculpting effect. Pilates can be a valuable tool for enhancing strength, definition, and good posture in partnership with Wai Lana Yoga. Click here to explore Wai Lana%26#039;s Pilates Yoga line of products
Guidelines for yoga and Pilates practice:
鈥?Yoga postures, especially inversions and those that compress the abdomen, should not be done on a full stomach. Listen to your body鈥攊f you practice too soon after eating or drinking, certain poses will feel uncomfortable.
鈥?It鈥檚 best to practice yoga asanas barefoot, using a yoga mat or nonslip surface for standing poses. A mat, rug, or folded yoga blanket will provide firm padding for other asanas.
鈥?Wear comfortable clothing, something that allows you to move freely.
鈥?Ideally, the room should be well ventilated. Have enough space to extend your arms and legs in all directions without hitting anything.
鈥?While practicing, concentrate on the feeling that the asana is producing in your body.
鈥?If you feel too weak or shaky in a pose, come out of it. Gradually, you will build up your strength and be able to hold the pose longer.
鈥?Don%26#039;t go beyond your personal limitations, but extend your boundaries gently. Doing the asanas correctly means doing them to the best of your ability without straining.
鈥?Throughout the workout, focus on your breath, inhaling and exhaling fully and completely through your nose. Breathing with awareness not only feels good, but also balances and regulates energy flow within the body, strengthening your internal organs and boosting your resistance to disease.

Yoga???????
Does yoga help you gain muscle mass? And also, my neck has become very sore since beinning yoga, am I doing something wrong? We do a lot of the up and dog dog position and it seems to really strain my neck.|||Good advice from the others.
You won%26#039;t bulk up in yoga, but you will gain strength and find yourself getting a %26quot;hardbody%26quot; if you keep at it long enough.
Ask your instructor to help you determine what you are doing during the poses that is putting strain on your neck. My suspicion is that you may be %26quot;hunching%26quot; your shoulders. Try standing in mountain pose (standing straight with arms down at the sides) and slide your shoulders BACK and DOWN. Feel the shoulder blades slide DOWN your back. This is where they should be in down dog and up dog. When you go into up dog, conciously pull your shoulders back and down, feeling the blades slide down your back. Do the same in down dog. It may be difficult at first, but as you gain muscle memory and get used to the unfamiliar movement, you will eventually get to where you do it in every pose. Always slide the shoulder blades down the back in any pose, even those such as triangle (trikanasana). This will protect you from injury and help build strength in the muscles that SHOULD be working in the poses, and will take the stress off your neck. Also, never force a pose or position that causes you pain. A little challenge to the muscles is fine, but if it hurts, back off a bit or come out of the position if it is actually painful and ask your instructor for a modification until you can move into the pose more fully.
Good luck!
A good website for yoga poses: http://www.yogajournal.com|||Yoga aids flexibility and can have some affect on strength (on the level of light weights/push ups). To gain muscle mass you will need to add in some more intense weight training.
There really shouldn%26#039;t be strain in your neck in either the down dog or up dog position; your neck should be relaxed. Are you in a yoga class? If so, talk to your instructor; you may be doing the position incorrectly causing the neck strain. I suspect you are either forcing the positions or are not relaxing enough during yoga; there should not be any pain in the forms.
Good Luck!|||Yes, it does help you gain muscle mass.
Maybe you are. Try consulting the teacher about this and maybe she can point out what you%26#039;re doing wrong.
If that pose is straining your neck, try NOT to do it until your neck feels alright. If you want to, don%26#039;t apply so much pressure while doing the pose. : )|||If your neck hurts, you have blockages and should keep doing the pose that makes it hurt. If you keep practicing the pose it won%26#039;t hurt as much. Blockages are back and stretching helps get rid of them. I do yoga and I know from experience.

Yoga?????????????????????
Summer is beginning and i usually do yoga during the summer. well i was wondering if there are any books for preteens for yoga..and if you have any ideas of what to do daily for yoga.|||I did an Amazon.com search on yoga for teens, and found a good selection of books. This one got some good reviews:

And here is the list that came up when I searched, take a look and see, there are quite a few books here:
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_b?url=...
I myself use http://www.yogatoday.com, it%26#039;s a site that offers a choice of 7 classes per week, 1 hr long each, completely free, and covers all styles of yoga, from beginner to advanced.

Another free website with free classes is http://www.yogamazing.com, and he offers shorter classes of about 20 minutes each. His you can download to an ipod if you want to. He is rather chatty, which I found distracting, but you might like him, so give it a shot. :)

Yoga ?
I%26#039;m a dancer, so I think it may be easier for me to pick up yoga than others. Is this true? Just because of the strength and flexibility thing?
I would really like to take a class, it seems like something I would like to try!|||Yoga isn%26#039;t really about strength and flexibiltiy. It%26#039;s about like calming down and breathing. It%26#039;s actually really boring.|||Yoga is all about focus calming your body, mind and spirit, yes.
But it is much more than that as well it can be about strenghth and flexibility. As a dancer you would most likely enjoy Yoga Sun Salutation, it can be done slowly and once you have the rhythm of it you can quicken the pace to make it more aerobic. Give it a try.|||For a dancer, yoga might be hard because it involves sitting and doing nothing, just calming your mind and breathing deeply. It teaches you to relax and breath so that when a stressful situation comes you can relax instead of tensing your body unnecessarily. It might seem boring at first, but if you realize the it%26#039;s relaxing affect, you%26#039;ll begin to see it%26#039;s benefits.|||Yep, yoga is very nice especially when it%26#039;s combined with dance and other artistic activities..
