A morning practice you will keep

Ten minutes, one mat and the same three poses every day. Why a small practice outlasts an ambitious one.

Start where you are

A practice does not need an hour or a perfect room. It needs a mat, a little floor and the same time each day. Begin smaller than you think, and let it grow on its own.

Choose what supports you

A block brings the floor closer, a strap lengthens the arms, a cushion lifts the hips. Props are not a shortcut; they let the body find the pose without strain.

• Practise at the same time every day.
• Breathe through the nose, slowly.
• Stop before it hurts, not after.

Listen to your body

Notice how you sleep, how your back feels in the afternoon and how quickly a busy mind settles. Those are the signs it is working.

Small, steady habits beat big changes you cannot keep.

Ask when unsure

If you are pregnant, injured or new to movement, tell your teacher before class. We are happy to adapt anything.
