I am not flexible. Can I still practice yoga?
Yes, you do not have to be flexible in order to practice yoga. In
fact, yoga actually increases a student’s flexibility. If you
are not flexible a continuous yoga routine will help you increase
your flexibility.
Can I continue with my yoga workouts even though I am now
pregnant?
In most cases yes, but talk to your doctor. If your doctor gives you
the green light to practice yoga you will need to be sure to inform
your instructor. Your yoga instructor will then be able to tailor
fit poses for your growing belly, and he or she will have you steer
clear of any intense poses that will not be good for the health of
your baby.
What is power yoga?
Power yoga is a fast version of yoga. Instructors quickly move from
one pose to another. There is often little instruction and no assistance
with body alignment. Power yoga is only recommended for advanced students.
