Alongside yoga mats, another prop that's essential to the practice are amps, which project intense music from artists like Pink Void, Hanford, Jason E Anderson.
As Noise Yoga co-founder Gabe Schubiner puts it, "The focus of yoga creates a really good environment to appreciate sound, in a deep listening kind of way."
