I came to yoga late and somewhat reluctantly.
Working from home in a small apartment, staring at a screen all day, I wanted to prioritize my fitness after a long time of self-sabotage but needed something low-stress that would get my body moving and help with my flexibility without requiring a gym membership or a commute
Yoga ticked every single box!
