And while the exercise mistakes may cause pain and even serious injury to the person performing. You have no idea how unpleasant it is to watch someone blithely wrecking her cervical spine while the thought-bubble over her head reads, “I’m flattening my abs!”

How well yoga works
One hour of yoga burns a modest 244 calories per hour.

Yoga is not a great cardiovascular or fat-burning activity. Perform yoga and know for yourself, it will surely help you in burning your calories.
