Question by ~♪~ Polar Bear ~♪~: First time going to a Yoga Class?
Never been to an actual Yoga class before, only done yoga at home with the TV. Should I do "warm up" stretches before attending the yoga class? Any pointers? Do ppl usually go barefoot or use tennis shoes?

Best answer:
Forget the tennis shoes. It's always done completely barefoot.

Yoga Footwear

Article by Jane Hill


Yoga originated in India over 3000 years ago and the term yoga is derived from the meaning to unite the mind, body and spirit. Although it has been practiced for many years it has only become popular fairly recently due to celebrities such as Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow becoming avid followers. The physical elements of yoga includes holding poses some of which can be quite strenuous s, as with all forms of exercise, it is important to choose the right footwear be it yoga socks, sandals or shoes to wear when practising.

Yoga socks are worn by many people as they are most like a second skin so they don't interfere with any movements. Unlike regular socks, yoga socks have individual toe sleeves which gives the toes more freedom and increases the dexterity of the toes, this is a neccessity in yoga as the toes have to be free to move and spread to support the different poses.

There are a wide range of yoga sandals available for those who want the added protection while exercising. Beech Originals are great yoga sandals as they were originally designed around the main principles of yoga; one of the basic things that yoga students are taught is to spread their toes to ground themselves and improve their balance, Beech yoga sandals have individual toe separators which helps to train the feet to spread and realign the toes.

As the popularity of yoga continues to grow so does the amount of yoga shoes available to buy. Barefoot styles such as Vibram Fivefingers are arguably the best yoga shoes as they allow the foot to flex and move as it you were barefoot without causing any resistance. This is an important feature for yoga shoes as it is essential that the feet can splay and move to increase the balance for each pose.

When choosing your footwear it is important to think about where you will be practising yoga. Yoga socks are great for indoors as they provide extra warmth without affecting your movements. When outside it may be necessary to opt for added protection. yoga shoes such as Vibram Fivefingers or yoga sandals such as the Beech Originals both give you added protection without prohibiting the foot's movement so you can still perform even the most difficult of poses with ease.
