The first class I went to (and still go to on occasion) was a Gentle Flow, emphasis on "gentle". I think, like all things, it really depends on having an excellent teacher and I've really made a connection with two of mine. The studio I go to is small and friendly and truly embraces all shapes and sizes, which is important for me.
there are so many other things that are more interesting, and thus more worth the time and effort This is me about almost any other form of exercise. I keep trying to convince myself to walk at lunch but why? when I can sit quietly with a book and a cup of coffee instead? Yoga is different for me. I have an anxiety disorder and really suffered from panic attacks and such for years. Meditation and yoga has really given me so much peace of mind that the flexibility and strength is just bonus at this point.
I shall stop proselytizing :D ahaha I have absolutely become one of those people over it.
