You learn when you are comfortable.

Every form of exercise has its own benifits. Any one type of exercise cannot cover all the benifits, yoga has its own benifits, so does cardio, strength training. One should make a schedule for themselves to include maximum forms to get max benifit.

Whether yoga is better than other exercises depends on individual preferences, goals, and physical condition. Yoga offers unique benefits such as improved flexibility, balance, and mental well-being through its emphasis on mindfulness and breathwork.
