Should I Talk to My Yoga Teacher About My Medical Concerns?

Yes. If you have medical concerns that you have discussed with your family health-care provider, you should discuss those concerns with your yoga instructor. It is important to notify your teacher of issues such as high blood pressure, blood sugar abnormalities and any physical or emotional trauma you have endured that may still affect you or have an impact on your experience in the class. Notify your instructor if you are pregnant.
