Yoga Community

Yoga definitely creates a community. Just in my time practicing yoga this semester at Stockton, I've come to recognize the regulars in the class, and I know that we are part of a community. In this case, it goes completely unspoken.  Smile are exchanged, class happens, and we move on. However, it is very comforting I think. Knowing that you are part of something that is consistent and somewhat dependable. Like anything, yoga definitely has sub-communities of people who share similar beliefs beyond what is done on the mat. Even different types of practices have their own communities since they hold a set of similar thoughts. I don't think that I'm in a yoga community that goes any further that the practice room at Stockton.
