Frequently asked questions

Question: What do your classes cost?

Answer: See this page for our prices.

Question: What do I need to bring to class?

Answer: We supply props necessary for practice, however, as your practice develops, you may want to buy your own personal yoga mat. It is also helpful to wear a pair of sweat pants, leggings, or shorts, and shirt that's not too baggy. No special footgear is required because you will be barefoot.

Question: Do I need to pre-register, or can I just drop in for a class?

Answer: Unless specifically noted (such as special events and workshops), pre-registration is not required. We welcome drop-ins, and advise arriving 10 minutes before class starts to allow time to sign in at the front desk and become oriented to the studio.

Question: I'm not flexible–can I do yoga?

Answer: Many people think that they need to be flexible to begin yoga, but that's a little bit like thinking that you need to be able to play tennis in order to take tennis lessons. Come as you are and you will find that yoga practice will help you become more flexible. This newfound agility will be balanced by strength, coordination, and enhanced cardiovascular health, as well as a sense of physical confidence and overall well-being.

Question: Is yoga a religion?

Answer: Yoga is not a religion. It is a philosophy that began in India an estimated 5,000 years ago. It is not necessary to surrender your own religious beliefs to practice yoga. In fact, the principles of yoga, such as meditation, mindfulness and exploration of our own divine nature, can enhance an individuals’ personal spiritual journey.

Question: How many times per week should I practice?

Answer: Yoga is amazing–even if you only practice for one hour a week, you will experience the benefits of the practice. If you can do more than that, you will certainly experience more benefits. Don't let time constraints or unrealistic goals be an obstacle–do what you can and don't worry about it. You will likely find that after awhile your desire to practice expands naturally and you will find yourself doing more and more.
