Beyond Yoga Size Guide
Beyond Yoga is a premium women’s activewear brand celebrated for buttery-soft fabrics, flattering high-rise silhouettes, and genuinely inclusive sizing. The label bridges performance yoga wear and luxurious loungewear through signature textiles such as Spacedye and PowerLift, elastic-free waistbands, and comfort-focused cuts that move with your body. Beyond Yoga uses standard US sizing and generally runs true to size across core leggings, bras, and tops, though compression styles and certain close-cut silhouettes may call for a size adjustment. Extended sizing from 1X through 4X is available in dedicated collections. A men’s line is also offered; as women’s sizes run approximately 1.5 sizes smaller than men’s at the same EU number, men should follow the brand’s men’s size guide rather than converting from women’s labels.
How to Measure
- Wear minimal, close-fitting clothing and stand naturally with feet hip-width apart.
- Bust/Chest: Measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape level and straight across your back. Essential for tops, tanks, and sports bras.
- Waist: Locate your natural waistline—the narrowest point between your ribs and hips—and measure comfortably loose without pulling the tape tight.
- Hips: Stand with feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hips and bottom, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
- Inseam (bottoms): Measure from the inner thigh at the crotch down to the ankle bone whilst standing barefoot. Beyond Yoga offers capri (21.5″), 7/8 length (25″), and full-length leggings (27.5″).
- Compare your body measurements directly to the charts below rather than your usual high-street dress size for the most accurate fit.

Product-Specific Guidance
Leggings: Spacedye leggings are ultra-soft, highly stretchy, and true to size—ideal for everyday wear and lower-impact studio sessions. PowerLift and high-compression blends offer firmer support and can feel snug at the waistband when new; size up if you prefer a relaxed feel. Dusted metallic-coated leggings run noticeably smaller than standard Spacedye—order one size up if between sizes. High-rise cuts suit most body types and stay put without digging thanks to elastic-free waistband construction.
Sports Bras: Beyond Yoga focuses on low- to medium-impact support with comfort-first design. Spacedye bras are flexible and accommodating for most A–C cups. Narrow-band or strappy-back styles may feel tight across the rib cage or bust; D+ cup wearers should size up or choose fuller-coverage silhouettes. If bust and waist measurements suggest different sizes, order based on your bust measurement.
Tops & Tanks: Fitted crop tanks and sleeveless styles are generally true to size but can run short on longer torsos—size up for extra length. Spacedye tanks are stretchy and forgiving. Loose-fit long-sleeve tops, sweatshirts, and layers from relaxed collections tend to run generous and are among the most forgiving styles in the range.
Loungewear & Joggers: Modal and soft-knit joggers, sweatpants, and relaxed tops are the most accommodating category—true to size with comfortable room to move. Excellent for gifting or first-time buyers who cannot try on in store. Between sizes or preferring an easy, draped fit should consider sizing up in fitted styles only.
Dresses & Jumpsuits: Active dresses and jumpsuits follow the tops size chart using bust and waist as primary guides. Fitted active-dress silhouettes suit true-to-size ordering; if your waist falls between two sizes but your bust is fuller, prioritise the bust measurement. Relaxed dress cuts mirror the generous fit of loungewear layers.
Sizing Tips
- Beyond Yoga fits true to size in most core styles; if your measurement sits on the borderline between two sizes, the smaller size delivers a closer performance fit whilst the larger offers more ease.
- When bust and waist measurements point to different sizes, order according to your bust measurement for tops and bras.
- UK shoppers: UK 6–8 typically maps to XS, UK 10 to S, UK 12 to M, UK 14 to L, and UK 16 to XL; UK 18 and above falls within extended 1X–4X collections.
- High-compression leggings and PowerLift fabrics feel firmer when new—they relax slightly with wear, but size up upfront if you dislike a snug waistband.
- Spacedye collection pieces are notably stretchy; close-cut crops and strappy bras may still feel tight on fuller busts despite the forgiving fabric.
- Dusted metallic leggings are the main exception to true-to-size fit—treat them as running small and size up accordingly.
- High-rise leggings with the signature 5″ elastic-free waistband sit above the navel and reduce rolling or digging compared with conventional waistbands.
- For maternity styles, follow the dedicated Beyond Birth collection guidance on the official site; do not simply size up from your pre-pregnancy label without checking bust and bump measurements.
