Yoga asks something different of a legging than lifting does. You want a waistband that stays put through a forward fold, a knit that is opaque in downward dog, and enough give in the fabric to sit in pigeon without the seam biting behind the knee.

These are the pairs that do that: high waistbands wide enough to stay flat when you hinge, and a quick-dry finish for hot studios and Australian summers. Several have deep side pockets that hold a phone without it swinging. Sizes S to XL.

For reformer and mat classes specifically, our guide to what to wear to pilates covers what studios actually ask for. Free shipping across Australia.
