How long should we do yoga?
Yoga is amazing—even if you only practice for one hour a week, you will experience the benefits of the practice. If you can do more than that, you will certainly experience more benefits. I suggest starting with two or three times a week, for an hour or an hour and a half each time.

What happens to your body when you start doing yoga?
During exercise such as yoga, blood flow increases to the muscles bringing oxygen and essential nutrients to the active tissues. Over time, with regular stretching, the muscles become more flexible.
