Asking Questions in Yoga: Before, During, or After Practice?

I love teaching yoga for many different reasons.

A big enjoyment being the conversations with students after class.

During a recent post-class chat, a student shared her thoughts on an Instagram post of mine. I thanked her for sharing her opinion and mentioned she can always ask me any questions. She followed with: ‘Well, I can’t ask questions during class...’.

This got me thinking...

Is it okay to ask questions during a group class?

I say, if you’re unsure or curious about any asanas during class, ask. Other students will also learn from your questions, and your inquiries can guide the teacher on what to teach next.

If you’re curious about other aspects of yoga, etc, it may be best to ask after class to maintain the energy and movement of the practice. Sharing these conversations after class also builds a sense of community with other practitioners.

What do you think?

I love to hear your thoughts! :)
