The Oria take
The one to try if a fixed video course has put you off before. Because it builds a new sequence each time, you can practise daily for months without repeating yourself, and the beginner levels genuinely start at the beginning. It talks you through poses rather than showing a person to copy, which suits some people and not others.
What is Down Dog?
Rather than a library of filmed classes, Down Dog generates a new sequence each time you start: you set the style, the level, the pace and how long you have, and it builds the practice around that. It suits people who want to practise often without working through a fixed course, and beginners who would rather not walk into a room first.
What it offers
- A newly generated sequence each session rather than fixed videos
- Over ten styles, including restorative, yin and vinyasa
- Beginner levels that unlock more poses as you go
- Choose the length, pace, voice and focus area before you start
What we like
- Practices never repeat, so it survives daily use
- The beginner setting is genuinely beginner level
- Works offline once a practice is downloaded
Things to consider
- Generated sequences can feel less considered than a taught class
- The family of Down Dog apps is sold in several ways, which takes reading

Questions people ask
Is Down Dog good for beginners?
Yes. Beginner 1 assumes no experience and introduces poses gradually as you practise, which is the main reason people pick it over a video library.
Is Down Dog free?
There is a free version with a smaller set of options. The full range of styles, lengths and boosts needs a subscription.
Do I need equipment?
A mat is enough for most practices. Some styles suggest blocks or a bolster, and the app offers alternatives where you have none.
Take it offline
Prefer practising with other people?
An app is a good companion between sessions. These are the places in Perth doing the same thing in a room.
