It's exercise for people who don't like to exercise.
Also see Pilates, Zumba, Stripper Pole stuff. Some of it takes strength and endurance, but if them bitches really wanted to lose weight, they'd drop heavily flavored greek yogurt, carb heavy salads, stop instagramming every meal @ the hot new restaurant, and pick up some weights and high intensity interval training.
The fact that the top yoga chicks are typically skinny minnies in flattering clothing feeds into the idea that these 28 year old chicks can lose the spare tire and attract the higher ups @ the company or go lateral at some start up and be an account exec or head of HR. If she sees a hot chick do it, she assumes by doing the same thing, she'll become a hot chick.
There's also a contingent of yuppie women that are spiritually bereft since they left the "non-progressive" church and are now more into "spirituality". Astrology, Tarot Card reading, all that new age stuff feeds chicks right into Yoga, but not into Hinduism. They like to meditate, but they don't like the structure of Buddhism.
It's like everything else in a woman's life. Pick the shit that they like, and discard all the responsibility that comes with it. Wants the wedding but not the marriage.

What it is about yoga that attracts mostly white female practitioners? I don't know any guys that do yoga. Hell, the Indians I've known don't even do it. What is the strong draw of yoga for yuppie white females?
