Yoga Starter Kit
Everything you need to walk into your first yoga class with confidence. Soft, stretchy clothes that move with you — no baggy t-shirts falling over your head mid-downward dog.
The thinking
Why these items
Yoga is all about flexibility and breath, so your clothes need to move with you without getting in the way. High-waisted leggings stay put during inversions, a light-support bra gives you comfort without bulk, and a loose top layers nicely when you're cold at the start of class.

Before you start
Beginner Tips
Start with a beginner Hatha or Vinyasa Flow class — they are slow-paced and the instructor explains each pose.
Arrive 10 minutes early, introduce yourself, and tell the instructor it is your first time. They will look out for you.
Bare feet are the norm. Bring a water bottle and a small towel.
Do not worry about being flexible — yoga builds flexibility. It does not require it.
