Preparing For Your Yoga Class

Our classes are 90 minutes long unless otherwise specified.

Poses are held during which time your attention is drawn to the detail and alignment of the pose. From the work of the muscle, residual tension is released and this will result in better sleep and an over-all feeling of well being.

Iyengar Yoga props such as blankets, blocks, straps, sandbags, and more, are used to help everyone achieve the alignment in the posture.

The class ends with a period of relaxation.

Yoga is suitable for all age groups and levels of fitness.

Comfortable clothing; tights, t-shirts, leotards, or shorts are best.

Bare feet are essential to work on the yoga mat which is provided at the school.

An empty stomach will help you to get the most from your yoga.

No eating of big meals two hours before the class. Water can be taken before or after, but nor during the class.

Yoga is a special gift left to humanity from the ancient sacred knowledge of India.

Now is our choice to experience it and allow it to flow through our lives.
