I've heard there are even some classes geared toward larger people.. but any good instructor will show you modifications of the poses and won't make you feel intimidated.
I agree. A good instructor will show you the modifications. I have had good and bad. Once you find a good one you won't care how much $$ it costs.. it's sooo worth it!
Again.. this is just my opinion. I do think you should try and go to a class with an instructor. It's important you do the poses correctly. Not only to not hurt yourself but also do get the most out of them. The instructor was always adjusting me the first couple of times during a pose. She would say "do you feel _____" I'd say.. you bet! - she would tell me.. "that is how it should feel" duh!
just a little advice. I found doing the pose by looking at someone and having someone put you into that pose
could be two different things.
All the best.
I'm going to go to amazon and check out that dvd too
Cool.. I just bought the dvd from amazon.com - $10.27 including shipping! yeah! Thanks for starting this thread
