CLASS INFO > CLASS ETIQUETTE

Out of respect for other students, we ask you to consider the following guidelines to help us in creating a peaceful atmosphere for class.

Arrive early and stay until the end of  class.
Yoga classes start with a quiet centering exercise to set the tone for the practice. It is best to arrive 5 minutes early to get set up for class and find a spot. Rushing in late creates a disruption to the peaceful tone of the classroom and generates anxiety for the person running late. Additionally, we wind down class with deep relaxation, so rushing out before class is done breaks the momentum of class and deprives the person leaving of the best part of class! If you cannot attend on time or need to leave early, please arrange to make up your class on another day.
 

Turn off cell phones and pagers.
We want to help you in creating some personal time for yourself. Remember to turn off your cell phone and pager before class. This will give you and the other students 75-minutes of uninterrupted peace and quiet.


Remove your shoes.
Since we perform most of the yoga poses on the floor, please do not wear shoes inside the actual studio space to prevent tracking in dust and dirt. Attendees with allergies will be very grateful.


Avoid wearing heavy perfumes.
The nose is very sensitive, especially in a closed room. Come to class clean, and avoid heavy perfumes and heavily scented lotions. Strong smells can be very distracting and trigger allergies too.


Create quiet.
Please speak in a low voice to support the meditative atmosphere of the studio. If you are waiting in the lobby for the class before yours to finish, remember they are probably doing deep relaxation.
 

Everyone appreciates your support in providing the best environment for class.
