If you’re a Bates fan, you probably know that their family follows some pretty strict rules.

Bringing Up Bates fans think she’s breaking the rules.

On Reddit, a fan reposted Carlin Bates Stewart’s photo in which she said she was doing yoga. The family’s followers are pretty surprised to see her doing yoga.

One fan pointed out, “My mom is fundie lite and they literally believe yoga lets in demons and satan.”

Someone else said, “I thought that Christians of the Bates and Duggar brand don’t do yoga.”

According to Got Questionswhich is a Christian-based website, yoga should not be practiced by Christians. The site notes, “Yoga originated with a blatantly anti-Christian philosophy, and that philosophy has not changed. It teaches one to focus on oneself instead of on the one true God. It encourages its participants to seek the answers to life’s difficult questions within their own consciousness instead of in the Word of God.”

It’s unclear exactly what Carlin and her family believe about yoga. But maybe her doctor recommended this and she is okay with it for that reason.
