What is yoga classes?
Yoga combines physical postures, breathing and relaxation, and in UK wellness centres it is taught in several styles. Hatha classes move slowly and suit beginners; vinyasa and power yoga link postures into a flowing, more athletic sequence; yin and restorative yoga hold supported poses for several minutes; hot yoga is taught in a heated studio. Many centres also run pregnancy, postnatal and chair yoga.
The NHS lists yoga as a suitable activity for improving strength, balance and flexibility at any age, and many people use it to manage stress. A good teacher will ask about injuries and pregnancy before class and offer modifications. Teachers in the UK commonly hold a 200-hour qualification registered with Yoga Alliance or the British Wheel of Yoga, and centres usually list this.
Drop-in classes are typically 60 to 75 minutes and cost £12 to £20, with class packs and monthly memberships bringing the price down. Beginners' courses of four to six weeks, around £60 to £120, are the best way to start. Mats are usually provided; wear comfortable clothing and avoid a heavy meal in the two hours before.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a yoga class cost in the UK?
A drop-in class costs £12 to £20, slightly more in central London. Class packs, monthly unlimited memberships at £80 to £150 and introductory offers for new students reduce the per-class price considerably.
Which type of yoga is best for beginners?
Hatha, gentle or beginners classes. They move slowly and explain each posture. Once you are comfortable with the basics, vinyasa and yin are natural next steps in opposite directions: more dynamic or more still.
Do I need to be flexible to do yoga?
No. Flexibility is something yoga develops, not a requirement. Teachers offer blocks, straps and modifications so that each posture works for your body as it is today.
