Yoga is not a religion, although it is a spiritual practice for many. Others use their yoga practice alongside their religious practices without conflict.  

You can wear anything that is comfortable and allows you to move! Traditionally, yogis wore loose, breathable clothing that allowed them to move around freely. A simple body-hugging t-shirt and tracks would also do.  

Ideally, it is advised that you do not consume any food 2-3 hours before your class. However, if you have low blood sugar, low blood pressure, or some other concerns, you may need a small snack within that time frame. In which case it is best to check with your physician or healthcare provider. 

Yoga is a non-competitive sport so there is no need for any special physical traits to practice yoga.  All you need is desire, patience, and perseverance. We do not practice yoga to become flexible, it is practice of concentration, listening, attention and awareness. Flexibility, when it comes, is a by-product of it. 

Traditionally, it is ideal time to practice is at sunrise or sunset. Most people prefer to practice early in the morning because during this time the body and mind are still fresh and quiet and there are few external disturbances.  

Props make it possible for every person to enhance their Sadhana (practice of yoga), regardless of their physical limitations. 

The use of props allows one to: 

– Perform difficult asanas independently 

– Achieve and maintain correct alignment  

– Holding asanas for longer and relax, thus attaining their full benefit 

– Understand the asanas on a deeper level 

– Continue practicing despite of chronic or temporary ailments and improve their condition.
