Who /yoga/ here? What are the benefits? How do you get started?

Improved my posture a lot. Got more flexible joints and it really compliments my swimming lifestyle.

My advice is to stick to it for atleast three months. At the begining is a bit hard if youre not flexible at all (like me) but its a constant effort that really paysoff.

A consistent yoga practice (practicing more days than not, ideally daily) can improve flexibility, improve strength, improve balance, reduce stress and anxiety, reduce symptoms of lower back pain, be beneficial for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), increase energy and decrease fatigue, shorten labor and improve birth outcomes, improve physical health and quality of life measures in the elderly, improve diabetes management, reduce sleep disturbances, reduce hypertension, improve blood circulation, and reduce weight.
You can start by signing up for a class at a local studio, or getting a mat and practicing at home through video instruction.
There are many types of yoga out there so some research beforehand may be required to find what you're looking for, but I recommend anything that doesn't stray too far from it's ancient Indian roots.
