My Yoga Journey: From Scratch to Success

The Beginning: Covid & Uncertainty

Covid times were testing times for all of us. The fear, the isolation, and the uncertainty around health and future weighed heavily. Like many, I felt the shadow of negativity around me.

But instead of giving in, I made a promise to myself: I will not sit idle. I will evolve. I will learn something that strengthens my mind and body.

That’s when I turned to something I barely knew—yoga.

First Baby Steps into Yoga

My journey started in the simplest way: by following basic yoga videos on YouTube. I didn’t know the depth of yoga. To me, it was just “some stretches and breathing.”

Yet every time I practiced—even if it was just a few light movements—I noticed something subtle:

First Baby Steps into Yoga

I began my yoga journey by following basic videos on YouTube. Initially, yoga seemed like mere stretches and breathing exercises. However, with each session, I noticed subtle yet profound changes

It wasn’t about achieving perfect poses but about showing up, moving, and breathing with awareness.

Building a Routine

What started as random attempts soon became a routine.
I rolled out my mat every day, even on days when I felt lazy or uninspired.
Yoga became my anchor—a way to stay grounded and positive while the world outside felt chaotic.
I didn’t know it then, but this was my first baby step on a lifelong path.

Transformation Over Time

Slowly, yoga stopped being just “exercise” for me.

Each practice added a layer of strength, confidence, and peace.

From Learner to Teacher

What began as a way to “just stay active” blossomed into a deep passion.
I went from being a complete beginner during Covid to becoming a yoga teacher—guiding others on their own journeys of health, balance, and inner peace.

Today, I feel proud when I see my students discover the same joy that I once stumbled upon.

Final Thought

When I look back, I smile at how it all began—with just a few simple movements and a desire not to give up during tough times.

💡 If there’s one thing I’d love you to take away from my story, it’s this:
You don’t need to be flexible or knowledgeable to start yoga. You just need the willingness to take the first step.

Who knows? That first step might just change your life the way it changed mine. 🌸
