Note: Guidelines for Pilates Practice are very much similar.
Please visit the Pilates Guidelines
 | | Please turn off all cell phones and pages or put them in silence mode.
|
 | | Inform the Teacher before class if you have any injuries (recent or chronic), illness |
| | or other medical conditions, recent surgeries, or if you are pregnant.
|
 | | Please arrive 5 - 10 minutes early if you can. If you arrive a few minutes late, you may |
| | still join the class. Please enter quietly.
|
 | | Let go of all judgement and competition before you begin.
|
 | | Wait approximately 2-3 hours after a full meal before practice. A full stomach can |
| | hinder the practice of postures and breathing.
|
 | | Please refrain from using cologne, perfume and other scents.
|
 | | Yoga is practiced in bare feet. Please remove your socks before class. If socks must |
| | be worn, please purchase Yoga Toe Sox which is the next best thing. This is for your safety, alignment purposes, and to fully experience and receive the full benefits of the pose.
|
 | | Please bring your own yoga mat. This is for hygiene reasons. If you forget your mat, |
| | we have some available for loan.
|
 | | Gentle adjustments may be offered to you by your teacher through the class. This will |
| | help guide you into a safer position or to deepen your pose. If you would prefer not to be adjusted, please inform your teacher.
|
 | | Please use the upstairs living room for social conversation. Only enter the studio |
| | when you are ready for yoga practice or to settle into meditation.
|
 | | Remember that regular practice is necessary to receive the full benefits of yoga. |
| | Yoga can be practiced safely everyday.
|
 | | Removed glasses and release ponytails for final relaxation (Savasana). Try to let go |
| | of tension in both mind, body and spirit.
|
 | | Help yourselves to any props you would like to use. Please put them back where they |
| | belong at the end of practice. If you would prefer to use your own, e.g. eye pillows, bring them with you to class.
|
 | | If you are unable to attend the classes, as a courtesy, please advise as there may be
|
someone on the waiting list or to avoid sending someone home should there not be
enough students to run the class.
Minimum 3 students to run a class.
Those who reserve their spot in advance, and do not show up for class, they will be
charged for their class. | |
