Online yoga exercise
"The basic yoga poses of Shivananda Yoga included in the online yoga group were shoulder stand (sarvangasana), plough pose (halasana), fish pose (matsyasana), backstretch (paschimothanasana), cobra (bhujangasana), locust (shalabhasana), bow (dhanurasana), spinal twist (matsyendrasana), crow pose (kakasana), standing backstretch (pada hasthasana) and triangle pose (trikonasana).~The yoga practice flow was designed for individuals who had never practiced yoga before. In the initial classes, there was a focus on breathing exercises and warming-up series such as Sun Salutations. The instructor frequently reminded the participants to perform all the poses with full yoga breaths and without holding their breath.~In the scope of the study, the physiotherapist researcher who is a certified as the Shivananda Yoga instructor, performed the same yoga practice flow and steps in the both groups during six-week."
