Beginner Yoga Yoga offers an excellent way to stay in shape by building
strength and toning your body, even for losing
weight.
I've also found that it's very helpful for stretching when you're involved in high-impact
sports like wakeboarding or snowboarding. When I take a yoga class just once or twice a
week, my body feels much less stiff and sore from the other activities I'm doing. I would recommend yoga to
pretty much anyone.
The only gear that I really found I needed for the class was a yoga
mat. A basic non-slip yoga mat with a textured surface will do fine. Wear comfortable
clothing that allows you to flexible. I wear a t-shirt and shorts, but some people wear spandex pants or
tops.
If you want to to yoga at home, either instead of a class or in addition to a class, you may want to consider
more than just a yoga mat. For example, an instructional
video or additional equipment, like blocks, straps and balls, that let you add variety and
challenge to your workouts.
