What to Expect

What can I expect in a traditional yoga class?

• An hour to 90-minute session in which you will do a variety of poses.
• Your instructor will teach you to use props such as blankets, blocks and belts.

 
How do I start? Do I need to pre-register?

• You do not need to pre-register for any of our traditional classes. Just show up ten minutes prior to class and complete a waiver.
• If you are new to yoga, you can begin with an Intro Series or Beginning class, but we recommend the Intro Series as the best place to begin.

How should I prepare for class?

• Wear comfortable clothing. Most people wear shorts or leggings and a t-shirt. Yoga is usually practiced in bare feet.
• While our studio is equipped with yoga mats, we recommend you bring your own.
• Please do not eat a full meal for two hours before class.
• Inform your instructor of any health issues or if you are menstruating.

Can I come to class if I have physical limitations?

• We offer a Gentle and a Restful class for those concerned with the demands of a regular yoga class.
• If you have health issues, inform the instructor before taking any class. Our teachers may decide participation in a traditional class is not appropriate for you.
• If you live with a mobility disability, we offer adapted classes.
• We also recommend you receive medical clearance from your doctor.

Can I come to class if I am pregnant?

• If you do not have prior yoga experience, our Intro Series or Gentle class would be best for you.
• If you are experiencing complications, we do not recommend you take yoga classes.
• Inform the instructor of your condition.
