Hi everyone!
I used to do yoga with my mom when I was a kid and I always loved it. I am now very interested in getting started again. I have been watching some Youtube yoga videos on some routines, but I thought I'd ask here too. I'm mainly interested in yoga as a muscle toner and to get more flexible, as well as to relax a bit. Of course I am pure beginner, so if anyone would like to recommend their beginner's yoga routine, like name the poses and the method you go through them, I would really appreciate it!!

TIA!!!

    This is the routine I've finally built for mornings. I hold all poses for 30 seconds, with a 5 sec transition. It's focused on my problem issues, like my hams.
    Sun Salutation to Forward Bend.
    Downward dog
    Runner's lunge, right leg forward
    Warrior I
    Warrior II
    Triangle pose
    Sun salutation to forward bend
    Downward dog
    Runner's lunge, left leg forward
    Warrior I
    Warrior II
    Triangle pose
    Sun salutation to forward bend
    Downward dog
    Plank
    Upward dog
    Cat (on inhale) to Camel (on exhale), repeat for the 30 secs
    Seated hamstring stretch, right
    Seated hamstring stretch, left
    Child pose

    I do a different, more relaxing routine with longer holds in the evening.
