Find What Feels Good: Yoga with Adriene
DOWNLOAD IT
One reviewer called YouTube-famous yoga instructor Adriene Mishler's Find What Feels Good yoga app "thoughtful, professional, strengthening, and enjoyable." Download it and gain access to 25 hours of her videos, as though Adriene's instructing you directly in your living room. The app will give you the option to save your favorite sequences, and you can start with a seven-day free trial before deciding whether you want to pay $9.99 per month. However, if the rave reviews are any indication of how good the classes are, it's worth the subscription fee (and much cheaper than any IRL yoga class would be).

Pocket Yoga

Pocket Yoga encourages yoga-lovers to open up the app anywhere, whether they're home, traveling for business, or on vacation.

The $3 app even comes with a glossary of yoga poses to help you learn the names and master the positioning. Namaste.
