At last a beginners yoga which is realistically for beginners and has encouraged me to keep at doing more yoga 👍
Yay, that is so awesome to hear! Glad you feel encouraged to keep at it! ~Namaste Kim
I have moderate to severe RA, osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. This was the best medicine for me in a long time. I stretched muscles that I haven't in years. I highly recommend . The instructor is very knowledgeable and her voice is very soothing. I look forward to doing this everyday and hopefully advancing. Thanks!!!
Hi Ann, So glad you have found your way to Yoga, glad you are enjoying this class and are feeling well from practicing with us! Take care and have fun on your Yoga journey! ~Peace Kim
I have osteoarthritis in a knee and can't do the floor poses I saw in other beginners videos. Looking forward to doing this one tomorrow! Plus I don't have room in my apt for all the arm work on the floor! LOL!
Thank you for the relaxing gentle yoga. I am 79 and other than walking, I don’t do any exercises and I definitely need to stretch and gain my balance back. It was wonderful.
Thank you for this, I'm only 22 but it's still very useful since I'm not flexible, I found that with other videos I wluld get easily frustrated when I couldn't do a pose but this wasn't the case here. I really liked the breathing and realaxing at the end. I also like your voice, I like that you speak normally and don't try to whisper. Thanks and keep it up!
Thanks so much for your kind comment!! I'm glad you found this video useful : ) Take care ~Kim
Hi from Denmark. We enjoy your Yoga every morning.
Thank you that was lovely ❤
Love your yoga sessions! Please record more. I have PD and I feel so much better after doing yoga with your videos ❤
Fantastic video - realistic achievable beginners yoga - Thank you 🙏
Yay! So glad you enjoyed it!! Peace & Love ~KIm
Finally a class for a re-beginner. I stopped doing yoga, why-not sure, and now at 64 my body is stiff and craving some simple yoga to get me going again. Thank you so much! Beautiful setting. You and your voice are calm, soothing, and encouraging; perfect yoga instructor ;)
Thank you so much for your beautiful review!! Glad you're enjoying this class! Namaste ~KIm
Much appreciated. As an octogenarian this is a wonderful addition to my daily workouts.
Hi Sheila! Glad you are enjoying this video! Namaste Kim
I decided to try yoga for 2 weeks to see if I could make myself like it. I liked your stretching very much. It is similar to the yoga I have found on CZcams. I am going to give yoga and stretching another 2 weeks and see if I can get hooked. I have liked the various videos of yours that I have done. You are knowledgeable and are providing a service to many people. Thank you. Plus you have a pleasing voice!
Thanks Carol, I appreciate your comment, and your dedication to seeing if it will stick : ) Once it becomes a regular part of your routine, your body and mind will begin to crave the movement and the peace of mind yoga brings. And that's how you get hooked! Lots of Peace and Love on your new Yoga Journey!!
Thanks, Bethany. I always come back to you to rejuvenate my 75 year old body. You are a star!
Thanks so much! Glad you like our videos! ☺️ ~ Kim
Hi Guys, found you about a week ago. I am 72 and just a little mobile as have issues with my hamstrings. Your YOGA just for a week has helped me immensely. Thank you. ❤😎
Hi! That is so great to hear!! Keep up with it, you'd be surprised how quickly your body will spring back to it's younger days! Take care!
Kim 🙏
Never ceases to amaze me. I do this regularly along with a few other classes that Kim teaches. Your gentle spirit shines through Kim. Thank you.
Aww thank you Dorothy!! So nice to hear! ☺️🙏🏼Kim
Thank you!!!!!!!!! Needed the beach, and a fun way to vacay and zen out!💜🙏🧘
You are so welcome!! Glad you enjoyed the beach, it's def my favorite place to zen out! ~Peace & Love Kim
Hello and thank you. I am 60+ and now feeling those aches and pains that accompany aging. I have you now to guide me into living the best life as I become functionally better!!
Hi, That is so wonderful to hear! So glad you found us! Take good care! ~Kim
This is fabulous thank you! Living in a cold, damp Scotland makes this such a wonderfully relaxing and rewarding experience. (And the yoga is a bonus) 😃
Oh that is so wonderful to hear! Thank you for practicing with me! 🙏🏼💛Kim
At almost 46, I did yoga for the first time at a resort in the Florida Keys a few months ago. In an effort to recreate that feeling of peace and joy, I searched YT and found your channel. I want to say thank you for bringing me right back there! I am so happy I found your awesome videos & I am excited to do yoga on a regular basis. ❤ thank you!
That is so wonderful to hear!! Glad you are enjoying our videos!! We love the Keys and try to go there often! 💜 ☀️Stay with Yoga, you won't regret it! Peace and Love 🙏Kim
My favorite video you are a great teacher
Thank you for your kind words!! Glad your enjoying our videos! 💛Kim
I absolutely loved this sequence I’m a bit rusty with my yoga practice 😅and this is perfect and very doable 1st thing in the morning as my porridge is baking 🙏
Thank you, so glad you enjoyed and wonderful that you are coming back to your yoga practice! Peace and Love ~Kim 💜
absolutely love this! so gentle and so good for my body and mind. Thank you! AZ has no beach, other than by a river, so this is wonderful too!
So glad you enjoyed the class!! Yes, the ocean adds it's own bit of healing energy to the practice : )
First video of yours I tried-very nice! I've had lower back pain for a week and this was nice and gentle, I feel very good right now🌺
You're so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it and that you are feeling good! ~Kim ☺️🙏
Thank you for this relaxing gentle yoga video. Although I have arthritis, I found the pace was was just right. The yoga teacher did a great job explaining the moves. This is truly a video for beginners. I'm encouraged to make this yoga video part of my regular stretching routine.
So glad you enjoyed this video and found the pace right for you! I hope you do make it part of your daily routine! Take care🙏Kim
My doc told me to try yoga, 10 min a day, to help with back and neck pain. I'm on day 3 of following you, and I love it. I am 62 and never saw myself doing this! Lol! Thank you so much!
Wow that's wonderful!! Great job 😁, keep up with it and you won't regret it! It also sounds like you have a great Dr.! Peace and Love 💜~Kim
This is my favorite video when I have very little time to do yoga. This does the trick always. And of course I love your gentle, quiet way of conducting your class. Thank you.
Wonderful! So glad you enjoy it! Thank you! 🙏🏼Kim
Beautiful yoga session, lovely stretches and so relaxing. Thank you 💕
Thank you so much! Glad your enjoying this video, yes the beach is lovely! ☺️☀️~Kim
I am disabled and have missed doing yoga. This was perfect: reassuring, yet with some places to grow. Thank you.
HI Katie! That is so wonderful to hear, glad you enjoyed it!! Stay well! ~KIm
I really love this. I've had a lot of heath issues for the past 12 years including stage 4 copd, congestive heart failure, lung cancer.....I lost my ability to get around easily because of needing air and my heart. I finally got well enough for them to go ahead and put in a pacemaker/defib a couple months ago. I started walking, but need more to get back my leg strength and work on balance due to neuropathy in my feet. This is perfect. Start stretching out my muscles again and gain some core strength. Thanks again. It feels so good to be moving again.
HI Lisa!! This is all so wonderful to hear!! So happy that you are feeling good again, keep up with your Yoga and you''ll just keep feeling better and better! Namaste ~KIm
The only standing yoga suitable to the seniors I teach that I have found on the net. Thank you!
Yes! This is what I teach to my senior classes ☺️ ~Kim
This is the first time I’ve actually enjoyed yoga!! I get migraines from putting my head below my waist, and no yoga instructor has ever accommodated that before. Thank you ❤ I appreciate you.
Awww that is so wonderful to hear! So happy you enjoyed the video! take care 💜Kim
Thank you Thank you! I enjoyed this yoga on the beach so very much!! I was an avid belly dancer for 15 years, but recently gained 60 pounds and sort of gave up. I have trying to get myself to at least do something and I found your yoga video. I figure, I will start out easy so there is no pressure to not do it. The sound of the ocean and the beautiful sun in your video was so perfect especially as we are in the middle of a cold snowy winter where I live. I am on day 2 of your yoga class and so far so good! I pray I can keep going this time and get healthy again! Thank you. You are an angel is a human body! 💖
Awww you are so sweet! Glad this video has gotten you moving again!! Belly dancing is an art I’d love to try one day! Yes the sun and waves are a perfect yoga backdrop! Be well ☀️Kim
Thank you...please make more of these. Such a lovely flow and for beginners
Will do! Glad you enjoyed it!
Namaste ~KIm
I agree! Please make more!
Being 70, I'm finding it more difficult to get up and out, my joints are really bothering me. My doctor told me to start doing stretches. I loved this video-thank you! I'm planning to get to know this routine by heart so I can go to the ocean and perform these poses there. I'm only a mile & a half from the ocean 🌊
That is a great idea!! Glad you enjoyed it. Be well! 💜Kim
Thankyou for your lovely calm voice and relaxing manner. The poses are suitable for me because I'm 72 and feel stiff.I enjoy hearing the sounds of the ocean it fits with the breath. I intend to continue.
You are so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it! 😊🙏🏼Kim
Thank you for your very gentle and nice poses etc. I have some chronic injuries that make it difficult to do the yoga I miss so I love following along with you. Mahalo *****
So glad you enjoyed it and that it worked for you! Peace & Love ~KIm
Recently I have watched several videos, I must say :thank you", you made me feel so relaxed, I loved the level for beginners and your instruction.This was one of the best Yoga instructions I have ever seen.I have subscribed to your channel, and so grateful to you...Namaste :) thank you , thank you, thank you .

Thank you Kim for your teaching. You have a gentle and clear way of communicating the positions of yoga. You have increased my love and understanding of this wonderful practice of finding calm in life.
That is all so wonderful to hear! Thank you for your support! Peace & Love -Kim
This is such a awesome place for yoga. I wish you would have made more. I have them all saved. Thank you.
You're so welcome and glad you like our videos at the beach!! Luckily this is where we live, so new beach yoga videos coming hopefully soon!! We took a 2 year hiatus when our second was born and hope to get back to videos any day! Stay tuned 😁💜Kim

I haven't put a comment in awhile. My RA worsened but this is the only yoga I can do. I cannot do floor exercises. Had 2 knee replacements. I thank you so very much. My joints do too! Thank you so much for what you do. Your voice and the ocean waves behind you are so relaxing.
Wonderful! So nice to hear this video is working for you! ☺️Kim

@@OceanVayuYoga Thank you! I've been doing these standing flows everyday since :)
@@aliceinc2661 Hi Alice! That's great!! Be well Namaste -Kim
Thank you!
Hi Cissie! Thank you!! ☺️🙏🏼Kim
just found you a couple of weeks ago. I had spine nerve decompression surgery last fall and had been doing chair yoga until i realized my legs are still weak. I still have trouble getting of the floor and walking up the stairs. To be honest i have been strong and worked out all my adult life and it is, was hard for me to accept.
I have already done your beach standing yoga several times and standing chair yoga. Plan on doing the floor workout next.
Oh an got my hubby to do a couple with me he liked it as well.
Have sent your videos two two of my sisters, one in Australia and one in England.
Please keep it up your videos are so good, and even though i can only do about 90% i can feel already i'm improving.
P.S your voice is not only soothing it also makes me want to try harder.
Thank you so much Rosie! This is exactly why we teach Yoga and create these videos! Thank you so much for your kind words and so glad to hear you are already seeing an improvement. Thank you for sharing our videos with sisters, hopefully they find them helpful as well! ~Peace and Love Kim
Very good. I just stop at 14:50 as I really cant get down on the ground right now after knee surgery. But the actual standing sequences were very good.
That’s great! Yes always do what works best for your body! ☺️Kim
Thank you for this lovely gentle yoga video. I have had cataracts removed from both eyes this summer, and so I've had restricted movement. This video has kept me sane and strong, thank you
So glad you enjoyed it!! Keep practicing! 💜Kim
Thank you 🥰
You’re very welcome!! ~Kim
I've been searching for a simple beginner yoga for a 60 something who is not in the best of shape. I loved this! SO relaxing and very doable, and I love the way you slowly lead the poses through to the next movement. I'm hooked! Thanks.
Great! Thanks so much! ☺️🙏🏼
~Kim
Namaste thank you for this video. I’ve recently had breast surgery with DIEP. This was really perfect for me as I needed this healing yoga stretching. Also as I’m eager to visit the ocean again, it was very soothing. There’s so much magnificence, near the the ocean. I’m looking forward to trying your other videos.
Absolutely enjoyed doing the senior practise . I have been pracrising since I was 22yrs old; now 70+, but I just fell whilst doing yoga (tripped on my keeling mat) and i was looking for standing yoga asanas...found it with greater teachers...thank you guys.
Thank you so much for your kind words! ☺️🙏🏼 I hope you are on the mend, glad you are finding our videos beneficial! ✨Namaste,
Kim
@@OceanVayuYoga Here;s hoping that you guys and your little blessing are all well. Thanks for asking, I am seeing great progress and my acup. has me down to twice a month; which is good news. Very hot here in Abq. NM which forced me to cut back on my practise a bit. Looking forward to resuming soon when I don't need the A/C blowing on me! Namaste.
I'm recovering from surgery and this is perfect for me not painful at all and I love the background. Thank you for making this video.
You are so welcome! Be well! 🙏🏼✨☺️Kim
Thank you. Truly for the beginner and senior that I am, which is encouraging. I have tried countless videos and this is the first one I absolutely connect with. I feel like I am at the beach which is always a good thing. I lead chair yoga for seniors with dementia at work and this is the next step just for myself to unwind at the end of the day.
That’s so great to hear, glad you enjoyed it! Yes the beach is a great place to practice Yoga! ~Peace , Kim ✨
Thank you.
Thanks for watching!! ~Namaste Kim
Oh my goodness,I have been dealing with sore and stiffness in my right shoulder and with these stretches. it popped several times. this what I needed for sure!! I am thankful I found this video on Yoga stretches. :)
That’s wonderful! So nice to hear this video is helpful! ☺️Kim
I’m aware of the caution for those of us with glaucoma and head below heart poses but this is the first time I have heard it mentioned in an on line class. ❤.
Yes! Best to be aware and take caution if needed : ) ~Kim
Thank you so much! I’m not a senior but I do have a chronic illness that prevents me from other strenuous exercise. I’m glad I can do this! 💕
Yay! So glad you tried it! Be well! ☺️🙏🏼✨Kim
@@OceanVayuYoga ❤️
Thank you. The ocean was such a wonderful backdrop. I have enjoyed many of your routines.
So glad you have enjoyed our videos! ☺️ Yes we love the ocean as a back drop too!! 💜~Kim
I've always loved the standing poses and they are great for balance and bones. Thanks Kim!
Yes!! Thank you for practicing with me! ☺️🙏🏼Kim
I’ve started a couch to 5K training program, and, as a big girl, it is kicking my butt. I👏love👏this👏video 👏 after training, to stretch and cool down and relax. Thank you!
That’s awesome! Good for you!! Glad this class is a good compliment! ☺️Kim
Thank you ❤🙏🏼
You are so welcome!! ☺️~Kim
Fluctisonant sound FTW! Thanks so much!!! 🙏🏻
My pleasure! So glad you enjoyed! ☺️Kim
I love this peaceful video. I take a brake at work and I am able to stretch without getting on the nasty floor.
That’s so great to hear!! Glad you love it! ☺️🙏🏼Kim
What a beautiful backdrop!
Loved this class,Thankyou.
Yes the beach’s here are beautiful! Glad you enjoyed the class! ✨Kim
I approve these exercises for someone who is a beginner and fibromyalgia. Often feel restless too, so this was just the right amount. I couldn't do 19 minutes, but I am sure next maybe I can do longer than 9 minutes. The more I keep up for each day! Lovely guidance on yoga exercises and when to inhale and exhale. Thank you for this. 🤗🙏🌼
Thank you and Yes!! That is exactly right, you will build strength and stamina the more you practice yoga : ) So glad you are giving it a try, only good will come out of it. Stay well!! ~Kim
@@OceanVayuYoga Thank you so much for the kind words. Yes, lots of will power and strength. Taking breaks inbetween, but it felt so nice after your exercises. Keep up the wonderful videos!😊🙏🌄☘
@@labellamemoria Will do! Thank you!!

Loved the setting, the calm and your voice. I’m a beginner so you lost me a 6 mins . Do you have another beginner instruction video?
Hi there! Sorry you got lost early on, here is a playlist of all of our gentle videos. Hopefully one will suite you ☺️Do what you can and try not to be discouraged. ✨🙏🏼Kim
Thank you for this. Trying to get back into some kind of shape and starting with this feels wonderful. Im not at a point that I can do a lot of the supposed videos for beginners. This one was honest and well done.

This yoga video is my favorite video here on CZcams for beginner yoga. The ocean waves are so beautiful and I love the poses you chose for this yoga class. I've been dealing with cabin fever here over the winter in the Midwest and I feel very sad and depressed. but, this class lifted my spirits so I thank you for offering this class to the world. ❤️🌺🌺🧘♀️
You’re so welcome! Glad it helped! ☺️🙏🏼Kim
This is genuine beginners yoga thank you!!! I used to do a lot more strenuous yoga but have lost a lot of my strength due to poor health. This video made me so happy I feel relaxed and content like I used to. Thank you so much ❤️

Hi Andrea! Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it!! ~Namaste Kim
Thank you for this. I have had mennieres disease and rheumatoid arthritis for 12 years. I cannot move my head very well without severe vertigo as well as laying down I can only lay on my left side. My body has been compensating as much as it can so I don't get dizzy but in doing so I have become very stiff and my joints inflamed. I hope your gentle exercises can help
Yes, I hope they will help too! I suggest taking it one step at a time, go easy on yourself and start slow. ☺️Kim
Thank you for this beautiful class!
So glad you enjoyed it! ☺️🙏🏼Kim
what a wonderul warm up yoga session! Thank you for publishing, Im going to start my day every day with this.
Hi Liana! Thank you! Glad you are enjoying it! 🙏🏼~Kim
Just comleted my first try at this. I found I am not anywhere near flexible (hands behind the back....yeah, no! Lol!), but I did my best to modify and work through it. Thank you! Definitely a beginner and senior here and this is perfect!
Hi Stella! Yes perfect modify where ever you see fit and take it one day at a time, some things will get easier and some things may not and it's ok either way. : ) Stay well ~KIm
I just did this and it was great! Thank you so much!!
Yay! So glad you enjoyed it!! 💜Kim
Great start to the morning. Thank you Kim.
