I’m a beginner / I’ve never done yoga.
I’m not fit / I don’t exercise.
Which classes are recommended for my level?

YOGA CHILL (Gentle Yoga) is recommended for beginners, individuals with no prior yoga experience (first-timers), and individuals with little to no exercise background (sedentary).
FLOW classes like YOGA FLOW (Vinyasa) and HATHA FLOW (Hatha-Vinyasa) are open-level or mixed-level. Beginner-level options for yoga poses will be provided, but beginner-level participants should already know the basics of yoga. First-timers are not allowed in FLOW classes, to minimize risk of injury.

I’m overweight. Can I do yoga?

Yes, all body sizes can do yoga! Bigger bodies can be just as strong and flexible, if not more so. We are a body-positive space, and we encourage everyone to build connection and deeper appreciation for what their body can do on the mat, and off the mat.

Are classes suitable for older adults and seniors?

YOGA CHILL – Level 1 is recommended for ages 55+ and seniors.
Ages 55+ with existing yoga, sports, or fitness experience (active or fit older adults and seniors) may come to any class of their choice.
Seniors with medical conditions should consult their doctor before signing up for class, especially if their medical condition may hamper their ability to perform physical activity.

Are men welcome in class?
Is yoga / flexibility difficult for men?

Yes, men may come to class. All genders are welcome! Yoga benefits your physical and mental wellbeing, regardless of gender or sex.
Yoga isn’t just about flexibility. In class, we work on strengthening, mobility, addressing back problems, alleviating aches and pains, and correcting or improving posture, among many things.
Yoga is about building a deeper, more meaningful connection to your body and to your self, through the practice of mindful movement.

Can kids / teens come to class?

To prevent risk of injury, kids ages 12 and under are not allowed to participate in class.
Teens ages 13-17 may come to class with their guardian or with their guardian’s permission.
