If you're new to this Iyengar Style
Hatha Yoga class, welcome!
If you have practiced Iyengar style yoga for less than 6 months, please start in the Beginning Level 1 Class to learn the basics of alignment.

If you are not sure where you would be most comfortable, please feel free to talk with me about which class is appropriate for you.
Tips for a successful yoga practice:
  • Arrive at class early. Getting to class a few minutes early can help you settle in with a little quiet time before class. If you arrive late -- or after we have begun our sitting meditation and invocation -- please sit quietly at the back of the room until we begin class so that you don't disturb others.
  • Wear comfortable loose-fitting clothing.
  • Don't eat for at least 2 hours before class. If you practice yoga on a full stomach, you might experience cramps or nausea, especially in twists and forward bends.
  • Please be sure to let me know if you have any injuries or conditions that might affect your practice.
  • Make sure your bladder is empty before class.
  • PAIN is NOT good -- so don't push it. Instead of trying to go as deeply or completely into a pose as others might be able to do, do what you can do without straining or injuring yourself. Remember, Yoga is not a competition.

  • Please let me know if you have pain in a pose.
