Yoga Clothes

Yoga requires a full range of motion and the participant should have clothing that can allow for that. Yoga clothes should be comfortable and breathable. Comfort is very important because the mind should be free from distraction and focusing on the breathing and the pose.

Yoga clothes should be slightly form fitting. This is for two reasons; first the instructor must be able to view the lines of the body so they can determine if the student is in proper alignment. Second, as the student is bent over she wouldn’t want her shirt falling away from her. Loose material can also get in the way and sometimes the student may even trip on it.

Yoga clothes usually consist of a form fitting top and a pair of yoga pants. Yoga pants are also form fitting but are forgiving enough to allow for plenty of movement. Cotton is the best material because it can allow moisture to evaporate off the body.
