Yes, you can wear socks during a yoga class if you prefer to do so. However, most yoga practitioners prefer to practice barefoot because it helps them to better connect with the ground and maintain balance. Practicing yoga barefoot also allows you to use your toes and feet to grip the mat and support your balance and alignment. If you have a medical condition that requires you to wear socks or if you feel more comfortable with socks on, it's okay to wear them during a yoga class. However, keep in mind that some yoga poses may require a strong grip on the mat or a full range of motion of the toes and feet, so socks may not be the most suitable option for certain poses. Ultimately, the decision to wear socks during a yoga class is up to you and your personal preference. read less

It would be ideal to let the socks go for two reasons; Let the body parts breathe while you engage in certain asanas. To get a better grip during asanas, let the socks go and trust you natural body to allow you to hold the postures.
