[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I tried yoga last week. I didn't follow the whole thing of salute and namaste because I'm conservative Catholic and only tried yoga for the purpose of streching and alignment since I'm a very active athlete.

I mentioned to the instructor that I was just there to try out the streching technique; she was very cool and helped me out. the 2-3 ladies that attended the class that day were somewhat okay, a little weird and overly sensitive. One lady couldn't do much of the poses and she cried. The other one cried at the end of class for I guess some reason. I thanked the instructor for the class, then I departed.

I was just aware that the Catholic Church condemns yoga, what are your thoughts?

Many thanks in advance and God's blessings.[/quote]
I'm not Catholic but have been taking yoga for 12 years.  Never once did a salute or a namaste or an omm because I just don't like them so I ignore that part of the class. I'm there for a workout and a good stretch, that's what I'm getting. I don't care what the instructor does on that account, and it never occurred to me to seek their blessings for not namaste-ing.
