hi Hive account@francesmary, that makes perfect sense!
However, if you like a more dynamic practice, vinyasa yoga would work very well for you too. You just need to find a good teacher that advises you on proper alignment and corrects you until you learn :) I follow this approach and it works very well with my beginner students.
Look for beginner classes in your area, and before the class approach the teacher and push her to correct you as many times as needed during the practice. Or consider taking a few private classes, just to set your foundations right. (FYI I teach on Skype if you like ;) )
Good luck!
