There are a million reasons why yoga is good for you. It keeps the stress at bay, it helps you sleep, and it helps you stretch your body after a long day of sitting at a desk or whatever keeps you busy. However, unless you're a dedicated yogi, it's hard to fathom how expensive yoga classes can actually be. You can do them at your gym, but you might not get that exact zen feeling you're looking for while hearing weights drop and shake the floor right beside you. I know how relaxing yoga can be after a long day, week, or just to clear your head. It really helps you get centred and remember that life isn't as bad as we make it out to be. So for your convenience I have put together a list of places that have cheap yoga, whether it's for your first time trying it out or for the most advanced yogis.
