Shaking as a beginner?

Hi! I was suggested doing yoga by my therapist as another way to deal with trauma in addition to therapy. I started doing short videos and at home practices during christmas, just once or twice a week. Today I finally decided that I can do a full hour class (previously done 20min-40min). So, it was great. But I was shaking during the end of it. Muscles twitching, just feeling really shaky in general. Finding it hard to describe it as English is not my first language. Didn't feel exhausted, just twitchy. It continued to happen during Savasana and even a little after the whole practice had ended. Is this normal? Is this just a sign that my muscles are weak asf (they are)? Felt great and relaxed after though.

Performing Surya Namaskar/ Sun Salutation as a obese beginner.

Hi all, I am finally trying to lose weight by doing yoga. My parents suggested me to do sun salutations (or Surya Namaskar, as we call it in India). Problem is I can hardly do the steps properly as my stomach interferes in most of them. I know this is such a childish question, but should I keep doing it? Like, is there a point since I can't even do the steps effectively?

Slippery Manduka ProLite mat

I just got a new mat and it's incredibly slippery. I'm feeling down about it because I shelled out $100 for it and I like it way less than the cheap grocery store mat I had been using. It's hard to hold poses with how much my hands and feet slip. I thought Mandukas were like the cream of the crop when it came to yoga mats. Am I missing something? Is there anything I can do to make it less slippery?

200 Hour Yoga Teacher Rec Training in Vancouver?

Hi 😀 I’ve been practicing yoga for a number of years and have decided I want to deepen my practice and do a 200YTT in Vancouver. There are a few places that do it in the city. Can anyone give any recommendations of studios that teach both a solid and comprehensive course! Thanks 🙏

Breathe and Flow's Patreon

I've been curious about subscribing to their Patreon for quite some time now, but I enjoy using the YouTube app that's on my TV as a way to follow along. Are the videos they've posted to Patreon hosted by YouTube as well? That would make subbing a no-brainer for me.

I need a good place to do yoga/meditation without distractions away from home.

Does anyone know where I can go? I have the beach close to me but atm it’s very windy…
