It may come as surprise that yoga can be practiced by real people! You don’t need to be extremely flexible, in fact most people are not very flexible, and this is normal. We have all seen the pictures and videos of what advanced Yoga can be and sometimes this is mistaken for how it must be. Yes, practicing yoga will help you become more flexible and increase your mobility, it will also help with your strength and balance, but within your personal limits. In fact, being able to freely bend to pick things up, squat down in the garden and make the journey from the back seat to the front seat of car may improve the quality of your life.
