Of course. Many people mistakenly think that people with good physical flexibility can practice yoga, and everyone can practice yoga regardless of age or sex. Yoga is a gradual process, and there is no requirement for flexibility. Even if the flexibility is not good, keep practicing for a while. When you practice to a certain extent, you will find that the flexibility is very different from before.

Suggestion: Without formal training, it is best not to learn yoga at home or watch videos to imitate asana. It is easy to get hurt and the effect is not good. It's not too late to find a professional tutor to study first, and then learn by yourself after mastering the essentials.

If you want to learn well, it is necessary to ask for help from a professional teacher. A good tutor can clearly explain his faction and ideas, and sometimes it is difficult to find the feeling of yoga because he has not been taught well.

Degree: In yoga asana practice, do what you can, make asana your most comfortable posture, relax your facial expression and cooperate with correct breathing. Through long-term practice, the toughness and flexibility of muscles and bones will be enhanced. Don't be impatient, take your time. According to your own ability, 70%-80% of the limit of difficult movements is enough.

Yoga is definitely more than just practicing asana. Flexibility has no obstacle to yoga practice. What is important is mental and spiritual practice, and mental practice is more important than physical practice. Yoga practice is a long process.
