    I've had boobs pop out in class and I've farted. Yoga people are generally a good accepting bunch so any judgement would have come from inside you, not them. Suck it up buttercup and go do some more yoga!

    I'm not dainty about anything. If I rip one in a yoga class its pretty obvious it was me. The class I was in was so laid back sometimes there was applause...

    The side effect of that for me is it made me want to eat better before yoga so I wouldn't be gassy before class. I hope you'll give it another try. Yoga is awesome.

    That is awesome.

    Honestly, the first time it happened to me, even though I was embarrassed, it was kind of an "achievement unlocked" moment. Like -- hey, I'm here, I'm working hard, and them's the breaks (pun intended).

    If it's gotta happen somewhere, be thankful it's in yoga. EVERYONE that has taken more than one yoga has experienced that. Once you got passed the internal embarrassment, I bet your joints felt better, so go back for more!

    lmao. This thread has turned me off completely of ever doing yoga outside of my living room.

    It has happened to me! I was really embarrassed especially since that particular class was super quiet. I got over it even though I haven't gone back to that particular class yet. I'm a nurse so I deal with all kinds of bodily functions every day. It doesn't bother me as much anymore.

    I'm so sorry I laughed, but if it makes you feel any better, I exacerbated an old injury (from twenty years prior) and wound up fracturing my lateral malleolus/ankle (after fracturing it twice before, having multiple sprains and even physical therapy) simply standing on one leg. When I came out of the pose I felt that horrible numbness and knew. A trip to the doctor confirmed it and I had to wear a cast (for the third time). That was my first and last yoga class. I can injure myself literally just standing still.

    Yoga is awesome and great if you have digestive issues. Everyone farts in class. I have while initially embarassing noone really cares bc they know its part of the yoga! Queef now that is more embarassing but noone knows where it came from!

    It happens and it really is no big deal. Regular yogis definitely don't judge or care. With all the deep twists it can be inevitable. I generally eat easy to digest things before class.

    can you please explain how a woman doing the EXACT same thing a man does is more awkward or embarrassing?
