How should I find and choose a Yoga class and instructor that is suitable for me?

Try to select a teacher or instructor whom you like. Though a certificated instructor is more acceptable and desired, on should also take care to enroll in a class where you find the instructor inspiring, friendly, encouraging, and supportive.
Yoga is intensely personal so it is critical that you like and trust the teacher. He/she will be touching your body to adjust your alignment, so you need to feel totally safe with him/her. A good instructor will make the class a secure and peaceful experience for students.
Look for someone who can adapt poses to your particular level and physical challenges–say a bad back or injured knee. Before committing yourself to a particular class, interview several teachers about their credentials and approach.
