GUYS and girls remember it is very important to follow proper technique and breathing procedure. Knowledge of right postures and inhaling and exhaling is extremely critical and important or you can damage your body.
Kindly pay attention to moves and teacher's instructions . infact I suggest if you are new to this first just watch it a few times and carefully listen to instructions and rhythm of movements and breathing pattern and understand. Then only physically practice. @saramiller

Thanks for your comment @slayer10, but I disagree.
Knowledge of alignments and breathing techniques can definitely take your practice to new heights, but there is nothing prohibiting anyone from giving it a shot whenever they want! You're still going to get a TON out of trying, even if you don't know "proper procedure".
I believe that everything is energy, and what happens in the physical world will demonstrate exactly where a person is vibing. If someone is scared of hurting themselves, they're more likely to hurt themselves. If they're stressing about "Is this right? Is this wrong?", then the judgment itself does way more damage than contorting the physical body a little bit wonky.
That said, it's VITAL to tune into oneself! You have to notice if there is pain; you have to pay attention to when something feels "off". You have to be humble enough to recognize if you truly are not strong or coordinated enough to do something, and be really real about it - don't be stupid enough to put yourself in danger!
It's great to learn from thousands of years of experience and wisdom, but it's not hard or scary to start or do yoga. There is no limitation. There are no definitions, conditions, or restrictions except what we make up in our minds.

Breath is incredibly important for focus, and stance, even in martial arts. It's also the root faculty in the healing practice of Meditation. Great mention.

Breath is way more fundamental than any of these moves! There is nothing that will not be improved by a deep, conscious breath.

I think injuries are part of the journey, some have to learn it the hard way, and I think there is no yogateacher who didn’t went through injuries, be it out of overconfidence, not being attentive enough, not patient enough or just having a bad day.
