Özet:

 The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of yoga exercises on body composition, flexibility, and quality of life in sedentary women. In line with this aim, the one-group pretest-posttest research design was used in the study. A total of 33 sedentary women who are between the ages of 20-47, live in Gaziantep, and started doing sports as of the beginning of pandemic restrictions voluntarily participated in our study. SF-36 Quality of Life questionnaire and body measurements were used as data collection tools. A program of yoga exercises was applied to participants three times a week for 10 weeks. At the end of the study, a statistical difference in favor of the posttest was determined between the mean values of the pretest and posttest in the quality of life questionnaire p0.05. Similarly, statistically significant differences were obtained between the pre-measurements and post-measurements upon comparing the body composition measurements p0.05. As a result, it can be expressed that yoga exercises have a positive effect on life satisfaction and enable attaining positive results regarding body composition in sedentary women.
