What to expect

  • It is not a sport

    Nobody is scoring you. The person on the next mat is busy with their own breath.

  • Flexibility is the result

    Not the entry fee. Tight hamstrings are extremely normal.

  • Shaking is information

    Wobble means the nervous system is learning, not that you are failing.

  • Stay for savasana

    The still part at the end is the point. Don’t skip it to beat traffic.

Four Poses to Start

  • Child’s pose

    Your out. Take it any time. The teacher would rather you rest than grit.

  • Downward dog

    An inverted V. Knees can bend. Heels do not have to touch the floor.

  • Mountain pose

    Standing, feet grounded, arms at your sides. The blueprint for everything else.

  • Warrior II

    Front knee bent, arms reaching. If it feels like a lot, shorten the stance.

Studio etiquette

Arrive 15 minutes early

First visits include a waiver and a face to put with your name.

Bare feet on the floor

Shoes and socks off before you step onto the practice space.

Phone stays outside

Silence it. Leave it in your bag by the wall, not on the mat.

Say something

Injuries, pregnancy, first class — tell the teacher before music starts.

Start with classes labeled Gentle, Hatha, Beginner, or Restorative. Aerial is welcome too — the hammock does a lot of the work.
