Types of People Who Go to Yoga

For me, yoga is the perfect exercise:  a respite and refuge from stressful days with the added bonus of physical fitness.  And it's better as a group activity — the energy of a room full of like-minded people can add positivity and a sense of community to your practice.  But there's a downside too.  Yoga attracts many different kinds of people, and sometimes those people are not quite so like-minded.  Like, they're not quite clear on the rules for when to get there, when to leave, and why you shouldn't bring your cell phone.  Yoga class is a varied cacophony of people and personalities, so this is devoted to them — and you, because, honestly, many of us have been some of these types.  Yes, even the farter.  It happens to the best of us.
