Preparing for Class

Before your initial yoga class, be sure to come prepared. Wear loose-fitting clothes so you can move freely and bring a water bottle as well as your mat and towel for the practice. Consider changing into an extra set of clothing when done with the session too! Pack a snack in case you’d like something afterward.

Arriving 15 or 20 minutes before the start time is recommended because this will give you enough space to settle in at the studio, and take some deep breaths to relax while setting positive intentions on what lies ahead mentally speaking. After that, get ready for one amazing experience!

In the yoga class, your instructor will provide you with instructions and demonstrations for every pose. They’ll also adjust their guidance to different skill levels so that all can join in on this individual journey of self-discovery.

The teacher should help support each step taken forward throughout this experience called yoga!
