Never been to a yoga class before? There is a first time for everything! Review these 3 tips and you will be ready to hit the mat. 

As a yoga teacher there's one phrase I hear a lot and absolutely cannot stand:

"I tried yoga once and hated it."

Here's a few more common and loathed phrases:

"I'm not flexible, I can't even touch my toes!"
"I wish I could sit still for an hour, but I just can't."
"I don't want to be the only guy in the class."
"I don't have a mat/the right clothes/time for yoga class."

Can’t touch your toes? Out of shape? Yoga can help you become more flexible while strengthening and toning your muscles. Yoga can also help you relieve chronic tension, cultivate concentration, and encourage self-acceptance.

Going to your first yoga class can also be intimidating, but as with any new activity taking that first step can be very rewarding. Below you’ll find some beginner yoga tips for your first class.
