History of Men & Yoga

Yoga in the western world has a reputation of being an activity and lifestyle embraced mostly by women, thanks in part to the success of feminine-focused brands like Athleta and Lululemon. A 2016 “Yoga in America” study by Yoga Journal and Yoga Alliance found that 78% of U.S. yogis were women, indicating that the perception was true. A disproportionate number of men did not do yoga regularly.
