I gave a try and I found it useless. I cannot understand how people can make a 'workout' out of yoga; a brisk walk is time spent better than doing yoga. As everything, I think yoga in America is misinterpreted; open your eyes folks, there's a GIANT amount of money around yoga and that's not that good for you (if you think it is, it's placebo, but that's still good for you). I won't say that drinking beer and playing pool are better ways to spend your time, but if you are looking for a real workout go swimming, running or anything else.

At the specific chiropractic center we ask the patients to take steps towards health by being active out side of the clinic. Whether it is yoga, pilates, martial arts...all we ask as you can figure is to get proper instruction. Great blog I have heard this debatre from various different practictioners and clinicians.
