What are everyone's thoughts on music during yoga?

Music can either enhance or distract you from your practice. It depends on your style of yoga and personal preferences. You can use calming music for gentle and restorative yoga and something with a steady beat for fast-paced styles like Vinyasa or Dance yoga.
Some people also prefer silence to focus more fully on their breath, posture, and inner awareness. -
The use of music during yoga is a personal preference and can vary among practitioners. Some find that music enhances their practice by creating a soothing atmosphere and helping them focus, while others prefer the stillness and natural sounds of their surroundings to deepen their connection with their breath and movements. As a yoga instructor, I believe it's important to be mindful of the type of music chosen for a yoga class, ensuring that it complements the flow of the practice and doesn't overpower the instructor's cues or distract students from their inward journey on the mat. Ultimately, whether to incorporate music into yoga practice is a decision that each individual can make based on what helps them feel most centered and present.
