The article discusses a graduate student's struggle with finding time to attend yoga classes in person due to a busy schedule and the pain from knee injuries. Discovering the Yoga in Our City program, which provides free pre-recorded yoga videos, allowed her to begin her yoga journey from home. Despite initial skepticism regarding online classes, she found an introductory chair yoga session that catered to her needs and was easy to follow, showcasing the potential benefits of home yoga practices for those with time constraints and injuries.
My first yoga session-ever!-was online. It was an introductory chair yoga class I practiced on my lunch break. A 60-minute practice perfect for those with injuries, the description promised.
Yoga in my living room didn't sound as legitimate as yoga in a studio-where I imagined other students, a teacher, mats, blocks, a certain something in the air-but I was in enough pain to try.
In-person classes typically ran an hour, plus time to drive back and forth. Would it be better to pick a studio closer to school, work, or home?
After I graduated, I still couldn't find the time to get to a yoga class as I was still juggling jobs. Even more disappointing was the fact that I developed pain in my knee.
