It is advisable to begin your yoga journey learning the foundations taught in the Beginners Course, however it is not mandatory, so if course times don’t suit or you just want to get started straight away, feel free to join one of our classes from the current timetable. 

With certain COVID restrictions still in place and a desire to ensure your time spent with us is as safe and as comfortable as possible, it is necessary for us all to follow the recommended precautions below.

You must pre-book for each class you wish to attend to ensure there is space available ( if joining a course you will be booked in for the duration of the course).

Social distancing is required

Please keep 1.5m apart from one another at all times.

Shared equipment is not allowed

Please bring your own yoga mat, cushions or blankets and water bottle to class, as we are unable to loan or share equipment. If you do not have your own mat, you are welcome to bring a towel, or purchase a mat from our online shop (or in-studio).

Practice of good hygiene

Bathrooms are available with soap for handwashing or hand sanitiser is available at reception.

Feeling unwell?

If you are not feeling well, please err on the side of caution and refrain from coming to class to help minimise the risk of transmission. Instead, take a bath, then jump into bed, pop in your headphones and rejuvenate with a deliciously restorative Yoga Nidra (translates to Yogic sleep, a deep relaxation meditation that promotes healing).

Read the Things to know before Yoga FAQ below

If there’s anything else you'd like to know, please don't hesitate to give us a call or drop us an email and ask. We’re here to help you smoothly transition into your first classes and to support you on your personal yoga journey.

We look forward to seeing you soon!

Clothing should be comfortable, to allow easy movement of the body. In the cooler months, have socks and jumper on hand for the relaxation, to keep you warm.

No eating 1 - 2 hours before Yoga class. A full abdomen will make you uncomfortable for asana practice and tired for meditation.

No comparing yourself to anyone else! Yoga is non-competitive. Let your focus remain with you. Simply be aware of your abilities. Regardless of age, level of fitness or state of health, ALL people are encouraged to do Yoga.

Do Your Best as self-effort is a Yoga discipline. Try your best, no matter how many times you have practised a posture. Experiment within the yoga postures to discover how it best suits you.

Allow yourself to relax Relaxation is not a luxury, it is a necessity for everyone in order to create the balance we are looking for.

Rest when you need to! Use resting time to reflect and absorb your Yoga experience.

Concentrate on your Breathing in each of the Yoga postures. Your breath will help your body relax and keep the mind focused. Listen for breath cues from your teacher to help guide you. Nothing will inhibit steady progress if you maintain Breath Awareness.

Avoid pushing or forcing into stretches, which means, don't work beyond the limitations of your own body. The emphasis is on 'letting go' rather than pushing the body through borders of pain.

Be Aware during the class. Heighten your senses to areas of tension or discomfort in your body; be aware of your personal space and keep the area around your mat clean and uncluttered.

Switch off your mind from any busy thoughts. Allow yourself this time for your practice and your own wellbeing. This includes switching off your mobile phone before you enter the yoga room.

Shoes and belongings are to be left in the cubicles and shoe racks at the entrance. 

Be on time to classes. But if on the odd occasion you are late please enter the space quietly, so as not to disturb the others who are enjoying their much-needed relaxation.

Let your mindful practice radiate to all that you do, including returning any borrowed yoga equipment (mats, blankets etc) neatly back to their place at the end of the class.

Remember, we cannot see you very well, so it is vital that you take full responsibility for your own practice and care for your body. Please let us know of any injuries or relevant medical information.

Remember, if it does not feel right for you, then do not do it. We encourage you to stop whenever you need to and ask for assistance if you are unsure about whether a pose or movement is right for you.

If it’s not possible during class, then talk to your teacher afterwards. We are here to help you get the most from your practice & we can offer adjustments or alternatives.

Questions and Comments

Any questions are welcome and your feedback highly valued. Please wait until the end of the class, then un-mute your mic and talk directly with your teacher.

Let the teacher know of any injuries or relevant medical information. Especially if you are new or have a new teacher. Then we are better able to guide your practice to keep it safe.

During heavier menstruation days ladies are recommended to practise the more gentle yoga exercises and avoid inverted poses (upside down postures). During this time be careful not to exert the body.

High blood pressure, dizziness and heart conditions are conditions important for your Instructor to know about before the class so that they can offer variations on certain exercises.

Light-headed, Headaches, Dizziness, Cramps & other physical complaints may be experienced after a Yoga class. Newly stretched muscles may respond by cramping or twitching, and toxins liberated from usually tense muscles, may cause headaches or nausea. This is a good sign that your body is detoxing! Symptoms will quickly disappear by drinking water, a warm shower and breathing fresh air.

Pregnant Women If you are wanting to start yoga within your first trimester, we suggest you get your health care practitioners OK before commencing. Women can practice Yoga at all stages throughout pregnancy. Pre Natal classes are the best option. Otherwise, we recommend you attend an easy/gentle yoga class. Inform the instructor the trimester of pregnancy, so that appropriate variations and recommendations can be made. Meditation and Relaxation is wonderfully beneficial for mother and child.
