However, yoga can also help to strengthen the muscles around your knees and even relieve knee pain. For example, this class focuses on yoga for knee strength, and may help to prevent knee pain, Runners Knee, and patella tendon soreness. Like any joint, strengthening the muscles around your knee can help to stabilize the joint, relieving pain and reducing the risk of future injury.
