Of the few yoga studios I've been to, as to reasons why guys are hesitant to give it a chance, I've seen less to do with snobbery and more to do with guys just be uncomfortable with something they consider effeminate (for some reason I can't comprehend).
I think there is a role for DVD instruction of all types, but think about it this way - the weight lifters on this forum always preach good form and good instruction . . . it is no different in yoga and having someone to guide you along and correct your posture is important. I would say, go try a yoga class sometime. You might be surprised.
