menstruation yoga
what should i wear for the yoga class?
can i do yoga during menstruation period.I am going to yoga for the first time.so i dont know what to wear.
Thanks!
You’ll be fine but I would suggest wearing a tampon and not a pad because you don’t want it to slip or anything… you’ll be in a lot of crazy positions.
Wear something comfortable, I would reccomend a tanktop and sweatpants – a really baggy shirt might not be a good idea because it’ll ride up and expose you in certain poses (speaking from experience here!!)
Make sure the waistband of the pants isn’t uncomfortable; try to touch your toes in it, do a couple of squats in the pants, etc. If they don’t pinch or dig in or try to slip down, they’re perfect.
