How I did it: My cousin met this guy whose cousin had a Yoga center. I decided to go and try. It took me an hour and a half everyday to get to the class (rush hour), but it was totally worth it.
I was going through rough times, so the classes helped me to peace myself and somedays to open myself.
It was amazing to see how my body was adapting to the exercise, and I could get farther and farther every class.
Within two weeks, I bought the mat, the blocks and a yoga bag to carry all of this! :)

Lessons & tips: It's hard at the beginning, especially if you haven't exercised in a while, but don't worry. Your muscles will start to stretch and eventually they will get where the posses need them to. You will see the difference and feel better and better.

Resources: I look for many centers in the internet. The one I tried was cheaper, as it was a single girl that wanted to teach yoga, but internet is a great source. Also I've found that many public parks offer free yoga classes.
