Arrive 10-15 minutes early. This will allow you time to enjoy your experience and ask any questions. It’s also a great time to meet your instructor and just clear your thoughts before the start of class.
Practice on an empty stomach. We recommend you refrain from eating at least 2-3 hours before your practice. If necessary eat something light such as a fruit.
Dress appropriately. Wear comfortable clothing.
Purchase a yoga mat. Although we do have yoga mats for rent we highly recommend you purchase one. Having your own mat supports your commitment to your practice and ensures its cleanliness.
Notify the teacher of injuries or medical conditions. This will help your teacher make necessary adjustments or give you modifications.
Practice often. It is recommended that you practice 4-6 times per week for maximum benefit. Practicing 2-3 times per week will show improvement for most students within three months.
Explore! Try a few (or all) the different styles of yoga we offer. Find the practice which you feel best suits your personality and personal objectives.
Don’t feel like you need to do everything on your first day! Take breaks, observe the more experienced students in class, and be easy on your body. It’s a new experience so treat it like one.
Check your ego–and your expectations–at the door. Believe me…ones ego and expectations can seriously get in the way of a good yoga practice. Just anticipate working hard but having fun.
