That being said, yoga clothes and accessories were designed specifically to enhance your experience. Visit these local stores and show up to your next class with the very best gear. For a few other ideas, check out Best Places To Find Yoga And Pilates Gear In Minnesota.

Long known as one of the best places for yoga classes in the Twin Cities, Modo Yoga also recently started selling gear. Even cooler, much of the yoga gear is stuff that you won't find elsewhere. Located in Uptown, Modo is a serene escape from the surrounding hustle and bustle of the city. You can find everything you need for that 90-minute hot yoga class, or just your beginning poses. A once small operation has flourished and is now one of the premier places for yoga – and yoga gear.
