What this one is for
- Silent while it runs
- Gentle ending sound
- Any length of practice
A short home practice benefits from a clock precisely because it removes clock-watching. Set the length, and the sequence stops being a negotiation with yourself. It opens at 30:00; change that with the chips under the dial.
Worth knowing
- Fifteen to thirty minutes daily builds more than one long weekly class.
- Silent while it runs, so nothing talks over your own practice.
- Keep the last two minutes for stillness; it is the part people cut.
Getting the most from the yoga timer
- Warm up before the clock mattersTwo or three minutes of easy movement first. The block is for working, not for getting ready to work.
- Set the effort, not the distanceTime-based work holds up on a tired day because the finish line does not move.
- Come down slowlyWalk or breathe it out for the last minute rather than stopping dead when the alarm goes.

Questions people ask
How long should a home yoga practice be?
Fifteen to thirty minutes suits most daily practice. A short daily session builds more than a long weekly one, particularly for mobility.
Will the alarm cut through music?
At normal volume, yes. There is also a soft option if you are training somewhere quiet.
Can I read the yoga timer from across a room?
Yes. Full screen scales the digits to fill the display, which is legible from the floor or the far side of a garage.
Does the yoga timer work offline?
After your first visit, yes. The page is cached by your browser, so it opens and runs without a connection.
