Introduction to the basic movements of yoga
The basic movements of yoga introduction are as follows:

1, forward bending type (hand touching foot type)

First, bend forward until your hand or finger touches either side of your foot or the ground in front of your foot. Next, touch your legs with your forehead, but be careful not to strain them. Keep your knees straight. Exhale when you lean forward, close your abdomen to the last position, and exhale to the maximum. Forward flexion helps to eliminate or prevent stomach or abdominal diseases, reduce excess abdominal fat and improve digestion. It also helps to eliminate constipation, make the spine soft and strengthen the spinal nerves.

2. Mountain style

Asana, as a basic yoga movement, needs to straighten your legs, put your feet together, lie prone forward, raise your hips in the air and bow your head so that it is between your arms. The body should be two sides of a triangle. In the last position, your legs and arms should be straight, and try to keep your feet on the ground in this position. Straighten your legs and bend your torso while exhaling. This action helps to strengthen the nerves and muscles of the arms and legs.

3. Prayer style

The specific way is to stand up straight, put your feet together and put your hands together on your chest. At the same time, relax and breathe evenly. This action can achieve a state of concentration and tranquility, and prepare for the next action.

4. Tree posture

Feet together, start in a mountain position, toes fully extended. Use thigh muscles to drive the muscles near the knee joint. Straighten your spine, chest and shoulders. Put your hands together in a prayer position, with your thumb close to your chest and your elbow bent close to your body. Lift your left foot and stick it tightly on the inside of your right leg (you can help with your hand if necessary). Keep your right leg upright and breathe in balance for 5 times. If the flexibility and flexibility are poor, you can put your left foot in the position of the calf or foot joint. I feel like a tree, rooted in the earth and breathing deeply.

5. Crescent shape

Start with the posture of the tree, step back with your left foot, lift your heel and straighten your legs. Bend your right knee into a straight line. Hands up, hands folded. Press down on your shoulders and back. Keep breathing for 5 times.
