Here are some FAQ's answered to help you to choose your first class, come prepared, and to know what to expect.
​
1. Which class to take?
​
-
All of our classes are suited for all levels of experience, so if you are a beginner you will be guided by the teacher on how to create the shape of the pose, how to modify as needed, and if you are more experienced you will receive suggestions about how to enhance your experience.

​
3. What to bring?
​
-
Bring what you need for class: yoga mat and a towel (recommended for heated classes). If you don't have a mat or towel, you you can rent them from us. We also have props: yoga blocks, yoga straps, bolster and blankets for Healing Flow and Yin classes.
​
-
Wear comfortable clothes you can move and stretch in. The Power Flow and Vin/Yin classes are heated to 90 degrees, so tank tops and shorts are recommended, and bring layers if it is cooler outside. You will leave your shoes outside the room - we practice in bare feet - or socks for Yin.
​
4. What to expect?​
​​​
-
Our teachers do not generally practice with the class. Instead they will be walking around the classroom giving hands on assists and speaking directly to you to give you directions to create healthy alignment, movement and expression. So, have fun, be yourself, and don't hesitate to ask questions.
​
-
We begin and end each class with Oms, which helps to raise the vibration of the class, to warm up the body, and to unite the class in sound and breath.
​
-
Most importantly, please know this practice is not a competition. Let go of your concern of not knowing and trust your inner wisdom. The aim is to leaving you feeling light, whole and complete, and connected with the others in your class.
