Yoga for Beginners
You want to wear comfortable clothing that you can move around in. Nothing too tight, or too loose.
If you have a yoga mat, it is recommended that you bring it. We can provide a mat for a $3 rental fee. It is also recommended to bring a towel and a bottle of water.
Yes.
No. Yoga creates flexibility. It is not required that you already be limber in order to participate.
We have a four week introduction course that we recommend for all individuals who are new to yoga. We limit the class size, and all of the students are new so it may feel less intimidating. It is also a great way to start making yoga a habit. Please see the "intro classes" page for more information. You are also welcome to attend a Level 1 class on the schedule.
If you can't attend the intro class, there are still other options for getting started. You could try any of our level 1 classes or a gentle class. It is recommended that you let your instructor know that you have never done yoga before class begins. You may also want to see an instructor privately, or get a group of friends together who are also interested in getting started and we will find an instructor who can work with you.
If you have any sort of condition or injury, it is always a good idea to check with your physician before coming to class. Please be sure to let your instructor know if you have any sort of injury or illness. This will allow your instructor to help you modify your practice so that it is healing and appropriate for your body.
yogaview Procedures & Etiquette
If you are running late for class you are still welcome to join in. Please check at the front desk before entering. If the class is still sitting in meditation it is best to wait until they start moving, or just go in and sit quietly by the door.
It is important to take some time for savasana (deep relaxation) at the end of class. If you have to leave early, please be sure to take a few minutes for this final pose, and then be sure to exit the room before everyone else has entered savasana so that the room can be as still and quiet as possible.
