Everybody Has a First Class

Everybody has a first class!  Expect to sweat, move and have fun. Here are some tips on what to be ready for when you walk in the door.

Before Class:

• Hydrate well before class. Use an electrolyte replenisher (such as Ultima) with your water.
• It’s best to practice with a well nourished body and an empty stomach, so eat two or more hours before practicing to give food time to digest.
• Wear clothes that are comfortable to move and sweat in. Our classes are hot and humid so bring a bag for your sweaty clothes.

Arriving:

• Arrive at least fifteen minutes early to your first class.
• Fill out a waiver and our front desk staff will direct you to changing rooms, storage for shoes and the practice space.
• When you enter the studio to practice, align your mat with the parking spots on the floor.
• Please silence all cell phones when you store them.
• Mention any pre-existing injury or medical condition to the instructor and assistants at the beginning of class.

After Class:

• Place your blocks against the far wall and hang straps on the pegs by the exit.
• Eye towels or rental mats go in the hampers outside of the practice room.
• Continue to hydrate after class and nourish yourself with good food (we have some great snacks in the retail section!).
• Enjoy our vibrant community! You can stay and chat with other yogis or ask the teachers questions.
• The yoga buzz might have you energized and eager to tackle your day, be sure to check for all your belongings before leaving.
