We've all been here before so we understand how it feels to arrive for the first class. Let's give you some tips and dispel some common yoga myths.

​

"Í can't touch my toes therefore I can't do yoga"

 

There is not a single instruction or alignment cue in any of the hundreds of different yoga postures that requires you to do this. In other words, you should never hear a qualified yoga instructor to ask you to touch your toes.

Every body is suited to yoga no matter your body type or shape.

​

"I'm tired/hot/cold/exhausted/emotional/feeling bloated/having my period/hungry..." 

 

We advise you to show up on our mat under all circumstances and experience for yourself how yoga will meet you where ever you are.

​

"What is the pre-class and general yoga etiquette?"

​

-Arrive on the mat with an empty stomach

-Have a light meal 1.5 hours before class and a big meal at least 3 hours before. 

-If you cannot shower, wash your hands and feet.

-Skip the body lotion and perfume.

-Wear comfortable clothing that you can move around in, a fairly fitted top or one that you can tuck in. Remove shoes and socks. 

-Bring water, but do not bring it into the studio.

-Have something warm to cover yourself in savasana (the final resting pose at the end of practice).

-Keep off other mats when in the studio environment.

-Noble silence inside the studio.

-Float out quietly at the end of the class...
