Hello everyone! I have lurked on this board off and on for the last few months. Now that my baby girl is here, it is time to really focus on getting healthy! I would really like to become more flexible and tone up a few areas.
I have always been interested in trying yoga, but I am not sure where to start. Does anyone have any recommendations for me? Is a dvd program a good start, or should I try to find a class? Do I need all of those products they sell, like the yoga bricks, or is just a mat fine?
Thank you for your help!

If you do it at home you will just need a yoga mat and block if you are not very flexible. IMO you should see if you can find a groupon for a yoga studio in your area. I love the yoga studio I go to. I'm the type of person that needs to leave the house to feel like I'm getting a break from my life. The environment they provide is just what I need.
I just started doing pregnancy yoga and Pilates at home. At first I researched DVDs but there were so many reviews that were half and half that I decided to try them out on you tube first... Almost every DVD is on there. I actually prefer using YouTube because my wii has it so I can still use my tv instead of the ipad. And I learned that I prefer other exercises to yoga, such as Pilates and barre. Good luck!
