• When trying yoga for the first time, be sure to try different class styles and teachers. You may find you enjoy one style over another.
  
  
• Wear comfortable clothing that does not restrict movement.
  
  
• Arrive 15 minutes before your first class to register with the front desk staff.
  
  
• Bring a towel, water bottle, and a yoga mat. (If you do not have one, we have them to purchase or borrow. However, we highly recommend purchasing your own for hygienic reasons.)
  
  
• Most importantly, tell the teacher it is your first class and mention any pre-existing injuries or physical limitations you may have.
  
  
• When in class, rest when needed. Your teacher will show you a resting pose that is used in all yoga classes.
  
  
• Do not expect perfection, simply enjoy your first class.
  
  
• Feel free to ask questions at the end of class, or silently wave your teacher over during class if you feel any pain, discomfort, or confusion.
  
  
• We offer a Restorative Yoga class for anyone with back injuries or physical limitations. This class is offered Monday and Wednesdays at 10:45am.
