Is yoga supposed to hurt?

My leg muscles are pretty sore today, as if from a good workout, but my wrists and ankles are kind of bugging me more than they probably should be.

hmm...did it hurt while you were doing it, too? if so, that's not supposed to happen.

if it's just hurting afterwards, that means you worked hard and will get stronger.

as for hurting in the wrists and the ankles.. it probably means that they weren't used to holding your body weight (esp wrists in positions like downward dog) and your ankles may not be thanking you if you did a bunch of things like side planks.

that wasn't really all that helpful, now was it?

i guess i'm saying listen to your body, because at the end of the day that's what yoga's all about.
