BEFORE CLASS PREPARATION

Yoga practice helps you quieten your mind, develop greater mental focus, increase well-being, and build strength and flexibility. This guide gives you some basic information to get started.

Before Class

Please arrive at least 5-10 minutes before class but no more than 15 minutes before class.

Wear comfortable stretchy clothing that will allow a wide range of movement.

I provide all Yoga equipment but since COVID, I encourage students to bring their own mats where possible.

Please avoid wearing strong perfume, essential oils, cologne and other scents. Respect the space and your fellow students by keeping your mat and body clean and odour-free.

Allow 2-3 hours to elapse after a heavy meal or 1 hour after a light meal.

Yoga is practised barefoot.

Please ensure electronic devices are switched off, or choose silent rather than vibrate.

Please let me know if you have any injuries, limitations or concerns.

Please do not step on other people's mats, it is their sacred space.

On the mat

Yoga is a lifelong practice and there is no need to do it all on the first try.

There is no competition.

It is an opportunity for you to practice relaxed awareness of your body, breath and mind.

Challenge yourself but don't push too hard.

Yoga should never be painful.

If you can't breathe, it's a warning to back off a little, give yourself a moment and reduce the intensity of the pose.
