I tried it a few times only and my joints were really stiff, I cracked my back real good though. 1/10 for nice back crack.

I had pretty bad knee pain for a long time. Yoga relieved the pain a ton and ended up helping me identify that my IT band being tight was whats causing the knee pain. It also just generally helps me feel less stiff.

I've done a fair bit of yoga in my life, you really have to find an instructor that teaches what you are looking for. Some are more woo woo, some are more about meditation, some are more about strength or flexibility. I found really good instructors at a climbing gym, not a yoga studio.
