Do any of you train in Yoga to help your bjj?

I've heard it helps your breathing and flexibility. Anybody train in it?

Most of the BJJ clubs I've belonged to also offered yoga classes. Murilo Bustamante told me at a seminar that he relies on yoga to focus himself before a fight.

I don't have time myself to take a dedicated yoga class, but I'd like to.

I do yoga. A lot of Brazilian BJJ guys do Gynastica Natural, which is similar to yoga.
