Beyond Yoga: Fitness Clothing You’ll Fall In Love With!

Beyond Yoga is a lifestyle active-wear brand that seeks to cater to all body types. The company offers clothing in sizes 0 to 16—somewhat of a rarity in the fitness fashion world. Beyond Yoga also strives to benefit the community. The brand supports charities, and all of the apparel is made in Los Angeles. However, you may not have seen this clothing on that many store shelves as it is only sold online and in select retail spots like studios, gyms, Nordstrom and Anthropologie stores throughout the country. I know a handful of yoga instructors who wear this brand, and I was very excited when the company sent me two pieces to review.

Keyhole Lotus Tank

I instantly fell in love with this tank’s soft and silk-like material. Best of all, it didn’t itch or hold onto to sweat. If you prefer your tanks to feel soft, this one is probably for you. This top is also shiny and would look great for women who like their activewear to stand out without being too over the top. The keyhole style in the back is ideal if you have a cute bra that you’d like to show off. I did find that it rode up a little bit, but not enough for it to be a major problem.

My only issue with this was just a personal style issue. I have a short torso, and if you do as well, I’d recommend that you size up in this tank. I ordered my usual medium, and although it fit, the hemming on the bottom hit right at my hip and made my entire abdomen area look boxy. The V-neck helped by making my chest look great, though. To prevent your torso from looking more compact, I would definitely suggest sizing up so it is a little longer.

Quilted Side Panel Long Legging

As an active-wear writer, I have plenty of leggings in my closet, and these are some of the softest ones I have ever worn.

You could easily wear this pair in a yoga class or just as an everyday legging. The material is a little heavy, so I probably wouldn’t put this on before heading to a sweat-soaked class (a la Bikram yoga), but these would be fine for your average Pilates, barre, or yoga session.

In addition, the design element in this pair made me swoon. Firstly, tThe side panels definitely elongate the leg. I also enjoyed how they were just a little sheer—giving the leggings a subtle, sexy touch. And it must be said, I also appreciated how the seams gave my butt a nice, little lift. Plus, these are high-waisted and perfect for women who want to smooth their stomachs—a common worry. Unfortunately, these did ride down a little during mat work at a Pilates class I went to. To alleviate this issue, pull these up during breaks.

If you’re searching for an everyday brand that you could wear to yoga, Pilates or barre, consider Beyond Yoga.
