What's the deal with yoga?

[superwagon]

I hear so many opinions about yoga being practiced by Catholics - whether it’s morally right / wrong. I don’t expect good and devout Catholics have any intention on taking part in any Buddhist religious practices; I would presume it’s only for physical fitness. What is the official Catholic teaching on taking part in yoga for exercise?

The following links should explain the Church’s teaching on yoga. If you have any further questions, please contact Catholic Answers directly.
