• Many students use the time prior to class to centre themselves through meditation or warm-up yoga. Please be respectful by keeping your voice to whisper level during this time.
• Honour your own practice. Our classes give you the chance to explore your body’s limits and comforts. While it is encouraged to follow the teacher’s sequencing, if there is a posture that pushes you beyond your limit, please refrain from practicing it. Our skilled teachers will be able to provide modifications that allow you to find the same benefits with less risk of injury.
• Don’t skip savasana! The rest at the end of class is very important to allow the body, mind and energy system to process the effects of the practice. Leaving during savasana also disturbs your fellow students who are trying to reach a state of balance.
• Please assist your teacher in putting away the props after class.
