yoga etiquette
… and some essential tips, which benefit (Y)our common yoga class experience.
Wear comfortable, form-fitting clothes that you can easily stretch in. Why form-fitting? So that I
can read the alignment and movement of your body in order to adjust during a specific asana (exercise).
Do not eat within 2 hours before class. Juice, fruit or a health bar are okay for some quick
energy, just not too much.
No eating or chewing gum during class.
Water should be consumed before and after class. If you are thirsty during class it is suggested
to just drink enough to wet the mouth.
You may arrive a few minutes earlier before our Yoga Class on ZOOM starts.
I encourage beginner yoga students to use props to enhance their practice. Blocks, straps and
blankets. Inform me of any injuries or physical conditions you have in advance.
Yoga is generally practiced barefoot to maintain traction on the mat and stimulate the nerves in the soles of the feet as well as to have the freedom to move the toes.
To properly develop your yoga practice, it is suggested that you attend class at least twice a week
when possible. Consistent practice is the best way to see results, even 5-10 minutes daily on
non class days, will reap progress.
If you feel you are having many questions and/or problems at any time during your practice you
may want to consider a one-hour private class, also available online on ZOOM, by appointment.
If you are going to miss a class, let’s discuss the possibility of a make-up either another time that
week or another week.
My place as your yoga teacher is to help you establish a personal practice which you can do
easily and with safety, anytime or anywhere, all you need is you!
Looking forward to working together in class.
Until….
