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.
