About yoga
Yoga combines movement, breath and attention. Studios offer many styles: flowing vinyasa, heated hot yoga, slow yin and restorative, alignment-focused Iyengar, Kundalini and yoga nidra (guided deep rest).
Classes typically last 60 to 75 minutes and end with a few minutes of rest. Studios usually provide mats and props; arrive a little early for your first class.
Choosing someone in New Orleans
- Beginners do well in 'gentle', 'foundations' or 'level 1' classes.
