the most important thing about yoga is to listen to your body. Never push it. The second most important thing is to stick to it. You won't always get the same high from a yoga class, but continuous practice will change you

Don't be afraid to try other studios with different types of practices. I remember the first one I went to expected everyone to do handstands. I still can't do handstands. I've found other studios that are more accepting of physical limitations. Just remember with yoga you start from where you are. We do not all end up being able to do advanced poses.
