Yoga at home: 7 tips for safe, consistent practice

Online yoga lets you practise anywhere, anytime. Keep it safe and consistent with these seven habits.

1. A regular spot: a little space around your mat is enough.
2. Good screen angle: see the teacher without straining your neck.
3. Choose your level: start with the easier option and progress when comfortable.
4. Listen to your breath: if it gets short or held, ease off.
5. Pain isn't progress: sharp pain means stop.
6. A steady schedule: two or three regular sessions beat one long irregular one.
7. Don't skip relaxation: the final minutes matter for recovery.

If you have special physical circumstances, fill in the health questionnaire carefully.
