Classes typically start with simple stretches, move into a sequence where you're always in motion, and end with relaxing poses. The teacher gives step-by-step instructions and shows easier or harder options for each position.

FAQ
There are many different types of yoga, each with their own focus and approach. Some of the most common include:
- Ashtanga: a dynamic and physically demanding practice
- Bikram: a series of 26 postures and two breathing exercises, practiced in a heated room
- Iyengar: a meticulous style that emphasizes proper alignment and the use of props
- Kundalini: a spiritual practice that involves chanting, meditation, and dynamic movement
- Restorative: a gentle practice that uses props to support the body in passive postures.
Yoga helps with energy levels and fatigue like a power nap, helping you recharge and refresh. It can help improve sleep quality, reduce stress, and increase overall energy and vitality. Plus, it's a lot more relaxing than trying to sleep on a crowded airplane.
Breathing in yoga is like the fuel that powers your practice - it keeps you going and helps you get the most out of each pose. It also helps you stay calm and focused, and can even enhance the physical benefits of the poses.
Yoga is like a gentle cardio workout for your heart. It gets your blood flowing, strengthens your heart muscle, and can help lower blood pressure. Plus, you don't have to worry about your heart skipping a beat when you see your yoga instructor – unless they're really, really attractive.
Bringing your own yoga mat to class is like bringing your own pillow to a sleepover – it's a personal preference. Most studios provide mats, but if you're a germaphobe or just want to be extra prepared, feel free to bring your own. Just make sure it's clean and not too slippery.
