Other than flipping about, don't they both go hand and hand as far as strength and flexibility.

Yes, yoga is a good complementary practice for other sports or practices in the arts such as ballet, dance, certain martial arts and gymnastics since they all develop strength and flexibility.
Yoga tends to be a more therapeutic practice however, as this is used to help recover from injuries such as joint or muscle pain. It also goes beyond the physical, as it benefits your mind, body and spirit.
Many ex-dancers, ex-ballerinas and ex-gymnasts turn to yoga to maintain their strength and flexibility without straining their bodies.
