You must practice yoga step by step

Experts remind: Yoga practice must be gradual

Most people think that practicing yoga is safe, but they don't know that if you practice it improperly, you can easily get injured. The US magazine Time reported that in the past three years, 13,000 Americans have been sent to hospitals for injuries caused by practicing yoga.

Edward Toriello, spokesman for the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, said most injured people concentrate their exercise on two days on weekends."They think yoga is a simple form of exercise, so they have classes once a week and start practicing before their bodies are fully stretched. It's easy to get injured." In addition, some enthusiasts have invented various yoga, such as jump yoga, disco yoga, power yoga and the controversial hot yoga.

Time magazine also pointed out that more and more yoga instructors themselves do not know enough about yoga, which is also a cause of injuries to practitioners. Yoga emphasizes one-on-one teaching, and yoga classes can only be opened after years of practice and obtaining corresponding qualifications. At present, many yoga instructors dare to lead a class after only one weekend course. (Internship Editor: Wu Jinyu)
