00:00All right, one last inhale, and when you exhale, go deeper if you can, and great, guys, come on up.
00:10Good job. All right, last one.
00:13Okay.
00:14For this last one, we're going to do a variation of the flamingo pose. You guys ready?
00:18Yeah.
00:19All right, breathe in. Breathe out.
00:25Arms up, palms together.
00:31Arms out.
00:35Hi, welcome to Sesame Street. I'm going over to Hooper's store for some breakfast. It's pretty early, they may not be open yet, but I am.
00:43All right, arms up.
00:44Hey, look at that.
00:47Arms up.
00:48What are they doing?
00:51Leg up.
00:52What is that? It's unbelievable.
00:57And exhale.
01:00All right, come out of it. That's it for today. Thanks, guys. Great job. Namaste.
01:05Namaste.
01:07Leela! Leela!
01:10Hey, Tony.
01:12What were you just doing?
01:14It's a special kind of exercise that comes from India. It's called yoga.
01:18And all that breathing and stretching makes you feel good, doesn't it?
01:21It sure does. Hey, come on, Chris, you better open the store.
01:24Okay.
01:26Yoga. From India. And I missed it. I missed the whole thing. I want to do yoga, too. I want to do yoga, but it's too late. It's too late.
01:39Terry, come down, Terry. It's not too late, Terry.
01:44Yeah, you know, Elmo and I did all the yoga exercises, and we can teach them to you.
01:49You can?
01:50Yeah, yeah, yeah. Look, Terry, look, Terry.
01:54This is called the frog pose. Okay?
01:58And this one is called the crescent moon.
02:03And this one is called...
02:04I want to learn the one you were doing before.
02:06Oh, he wants to learn the flamingo pose.
02:09Ah.
02:10The flamingo. Yes. Teach me the flamingo.
02:14Yes, yes, yes. The flamingo is fun, Terry.
02:17Yeah.
02:18But it's a little tricky.
02:20I don't care. Just tell me what to do.
02:22Well, okay. The first thing Terry has to do is breathe.
02:26I'm breathing now. What's next?
02:29No, no, no. No, Terry. Terry has to do a special yoga breathing.
02:34A special yoga breathing?
02:36Yeah, yeah. First, you breathe in, but very slowly.
02:42Very slowly.
02:45Good. Then breathe out.
02:48Very slowly, slowly, slowly.
02:51Good.
02:52Wow, that was good yoga breathing, Terry.
02:55I'm doing it. I'm doing it. I'm doing the flamingo.
02:58Now what?
02:59Okay, okay. Well, now, arms up. Arms up. Up.
03:03Arms up.
03:04Good, Terry.
03:05Now, arms out. Arms out.
03:08You see?
03:09Out.
03:10Out. Good, Terry.
03:11Okay.
03:12Now, leg up.
03:13Up.
03:14Leg up.
03:15Up.
03:16Knee up.
03:17There.
03:18Hey, Mama. How did you fall down?
03:22I know I fell down. I'm up there.
03:25But why? You didn't fall down.
03:27No one fell down in front of Leela.
03:29Well, what's Elmo and Rosita telling you?
03:31Elmo and Rosita will show you how to do it.
03:34You two, come on. Help us show Terry how to do the flamingo pose.
03:38Yeah.
03:39Here we go.
03:40Yep, yep. Breathe in. Breathe out.
03:42Breathe out.
03:43Arms up. Arms out.
03:46Leg up.
03:47Up, up. Keep the legs up.
03:49Okay, good.
03:50Okay, good.
03:51Now, does Terry think Terry's got it now?
03:54I don't think I've got it, Elmo.
03:56I know I've got it.
03:58All right.
03:59Okay, okay. Ready, ready?
04:01Breathe in. Breathe in.
04:03Breathe out.
04:04Breathe out.
04:05Arms up. Arms up.
04:06Arms out. Arms out.
04:07Leg up.
04:08Leg up.
04:15I can't believe this.
04:17Every time I lift my leg, I fall down.
04:19I'm never going to learn the flamingo.
04:21Never.
04:22Sally, don't give up.
04:24This time, I've got an idea.
04:27What is it?
04:28What is it?
04:29Yeah, yeah. Let me tell you.
04:30When you stick your arms up, you know, and then out,
04:33Elmo will hold one arm, I hold the other,
04:36and we won't let go until you're balanced.
04:40Wow, that's a great idea, Rosita.
04:42Yes.
04:43Let's do it.
04:45Okay, then.
04:47Ready?
04:48Ready.
04:49Breathe in.
04:50Breathe in.
04:52Arms up.
04:53Arms up.
04:54Arms out.
04:55Arms out.
04:56Let me hold your hand.
04:57Got it.
04:58Got it.
04:59Okay, got it.
05:00Leg up.
05:01Leg up.
05:03Good, Telly.
05:04Good, good, good.
05:05Balance, balance.
05:08Okay, okay, okay.
05:09Got you, got you.
05:10Okay.
05:11Okay?
05:12Okay.
05:13Let go now.
05:14Is Telly sure that Telly is balanced?
05:16I'm sure, Elmo.
05:18Is Telly absolutely balanced?
05:20Elmo, I've never been so sure of anything in my entire life.
05:24Okay.
05:25Elmo's going to let go.
05:26Me too.
05:27Okay.
05:28Let go.
05:29Let go.
05:30Okay.
05:31Yay!
05:32I got it.
05:33I got it.
05:34I know what went wrong.
05:35I know what went wrong.
05:36What's wrong?
05:37What's wrong, Telly?
05:38What's wrong?
05:39My elbows.
05:40One of them is heavier than the other one.
05:41Really?
05:42Yes.
05:43I always suspected it, but now I know it's true.
05:47This elbow weighs more than the other elbow.
05:51So when I try to balance, the side with the heavier elbow pulls me over.
05:56I'll never be able to balance myself.
05:58Never.
05:59Never.
06:00It's my elbows.
06:01Wait a minute, Telly.
06:03Telly, maybe you can.
06:05How?
06:06Well, if the problem is one side of you is heavier than the other,
06:12we need to make your weight the same on both sides for you to balance and not fall down.
06:20You think that'll work?
06:22Let's experiment and see.
06:24We need something for you to hold to make your light side heavier.
06:30How about this rock?
06:33Perfect.
06:34Give it to Telly, Elmo.
06:36Telly, what's his?
06:38This is the side with the lighter elbow.
06:40Good.
06:41You got it?
06:42I got it.
06:43Whoa.
06:44Okay, ready.
06:45Perfect.
06:46Okay, breathe in.
06:47Breathe in.
06:48Breathe out.
06:49Arms up.
06:50Arms up.
06:51Arms out.
06:52Arms out.
06:53Leg up.
06:54Leg up.
06:58Now I think the side with the rock is too heavy.
07:00It is heavy.
07:01Telly needs to add something on the other side to make it weigh the same.
07:09Here.
07:10Here.
07:11Hold the salt shaker.
07:12Okay.
07:13Got it.
07:14Great.
07:15Here we go.
07:16Breathe in.
07:17Breathe in.
07:18Breathe out.
07:19Arms up.
07:20Arms up.
07:21Arms out.
07:22Legs up.
07:23Legs up.
07:26I'm alive.
07:28Okay, that's all of them.

07:33Breathe in.
07:34In.
07:35Out.
07:36Out.
07:37Breathe in.
07:38Breathe out.
07:39Out.
07:40Arms up.
07:41Arms up.
07:42Sounds like another yoga class.
07:44Legs up.
07:45Legs up.
07:46No, no, no, no, no.
07:47A heavier roller skate.
07:48We need a heavier roller skate.
07:49Okay, a roller skate.
07:50What's going on here?
07:51I'm learning yoga, Chris.
07:52I'm learning the flamingo pose.
07:53And this is how you're learning the flamingo pose?
07:54Well, Telly was having trouble keeping his balance, Chris.
07:55Yep.

15:02Hello, Murray.
15:04Everybody loves to see a monster and his sheep.
15:06And they all say,
15:08Murray has a little lamb.
15:10What kind of school is this?
15:12Yoga school.
15:14We're going to yoga school.
15:16Hey, Sherry.
15:18Hi, Murray.
15:20What is yoga?
15:22Yoga is the coming together of your brain and your body.
15:24We're going to learn how to breathe.
15:26We're going to learn how to do yoga poses.
15:28We're going to stretch our muscles out.
15:30It makes us more flexible and it makes us really strong.
15:32This is called tree pose.
15:34We reach our arms up
15:36and we balance on one foot.
15:38You're really good at that, Ovejita.
15:40Muy bien, Ovejita.
15:42Why do you want to balance, Sherry?
15:44It helps us to focus and to concentrate.
15:46What does it mean to focus?
15:48It's paying attention.
15:50What are some of the poses you like to do?
15:52I like to do some arm balances.
15:54How do you do an arm balance?
15:56Whoa.
15:58That's an awesome arm balance.
16:00Do you have favorite poses you like to do?
16:02I like doing handstands.
16:04You can do handstands?
16:06Do you think you could show me one?
16:08Whoa.
16:10That is some great balance.
16:12Can you show me one of these balancing exercises?
16:14Sure.
16:16I'm going to stand on one foot.
16:18I'm going to hold onto my toe
16:20and I'm going to lift my leg up in the air.
16:22I'll try it.
16:24Here I go.
16:26I'm going to pull my leg up.
16:32Are you okay?
16:34I'm okay.
16:36I'm not really great at balancing.
16:38That's the thing about yoga.
16:40You don't have to be great at it
16:42because we practice it.
16:44It takes some time.
16:46Take a big breath in.
16:48Reach your arms to the sky.
16:50Beautiful.
16:52From here, come into upward facing dog.
16:54Look up to the sky.
16:56Upward dog.
16:58Come all the way back up for warrior one.
17:00Say, I am strong.
17:02I am strong.
17:04Open your arms out to a T for warrior two.
17:06Say, I am bold.
17:08I am bold.
17:10Now get ready. Here's the tricky part.
17:12We're going to push off that front leg
17:14to come into warrior three.
17:16My own balance I can hold.
17:18My own balance I can hold.
17:22Oh!
17:24This is so frustrating.
17:26Okay, focus and relax.
17:32I am strong.
17:34I am bold.
17:38My own balance I can hold.
17:40Hey, look at me.
17:42I balanced.
17:44Oh boy.
17:46I love getting my balance at yoga school.
17:48Now, let's watch this.
17:52Yum, yum, yum.
17:54How many cookies are there today?
17:56Yum, yum, yum.
17:58How many cookies today?
18:00While they still baking.
18:02Let's do some shaking.
18:04Shake, shake, shake, shake.
18:06Shake, shake.

19:48Oh, Smarty.
19:52Hi, Elmo.
19:54Hi, Smarty.
19:56Guess what.
19:58I was doing yoga.
20:00Ha, ha, ha.
20:02Smarty does yoga?
20:04You bet.
20:06My favorite poses are landscape pose and portrait pose.
20:08That's perfect, Smarty.
20:10Elmo wants to learn all about yoga today.
20:12Well, what do we do to learn something new?
20:16We look it up.
20:18Getting to the center of yoga.
20:20Here we go.
20:24Yoga is a kind of exercise that comes from India.
20:28It helps people get stronger and more flexible.
20:32It's also a way for you to have fun with your friends and family.
20:36And helps you focus, keep calm,
20:38and become more confident.
20:42There are so many fun yoga poses to try,
20:44like flamingo, frog, and lion.
20:48So, what yoga pose do you want to try first, Elmo?
20:52Oh, Elmo wants to try the tree pose.
20:56Wow, you're tree-rific at yoga, Elmo.
21:00Ha, ha, ha.
21:02Well, gotta get back to my yoga.
21:04Namaste, Elmo.
21:06Namaste.
21:08Boy, Elmo loves doing yoga.
21:12Hey, that gives Elmo an idea.
21:16Come on, let's play a game together.
21:18Yeah, come on, come on.
21:24Look, these kids are practicing yoga.
21:28And their yoga poses look like these animals.
21:32Which animal is this boy posing like?
21:34The flamingo.
21:36Yeah, a flamingo.
21:38And how about this girl?
21:40She looks like she's ready to jump.
21:42The frog.
21:44Yeah, the froggy.
21:46And how about this girl?
21:48Which animal is she posing like?
21:50The pigeon?
21:52No.
21:54How about the lion?
21:56Yeah, she's doing the lion pose.
21:58Yay, we did it.
22:00Boy, yoga's so cool.
22:02Oh, and that makes Elmo wonder even more.
22:06Does Mr. Noodle know yoga?
22:08Oh, let's ask him.
22:10Hey, Mr. Noodle.
22:14Oh, it's Mr. Noodle's brother, Mr. Noodle.
22:18Hi, Mr. Noodle.
22:20Mr. Noodle, Elmo is wondering,
22:22do you practice yoga?
22:24You do?
22:26Show us how you do yoga, Mr. Noodle.
22:28Yeah, show us.
22:32Mr. Noodle's playing with the yo-yo.
22:34That looks like fun, Mr. Noodle,
22:36but that's not how you do yoga.
22:38Yoga is an exercise with different poses.
22:44He's pretending to be a model.
22:46Very fashionable, Mr. Noodle.
22:48But not those kind of poses.
22:52In yoga, people do special poses
22:54and deep breathing.
22:56Keep trying, Mr. Noodle.
22:58You'll get it.
23:02Yeah!
23:04That's it.
23:06Mr. Noodle's doing yoga.
23:08Great pose.
23:10Uh-oh.
23:12Keep practicing, Mr. Noodle.
23:14Keep practicing.
23:16Oh, keep practicing yoga, Mr. Noodle.
23:20Namaste.

23:26that makes him want to dance.
