Frequently Asked Questions.
New To Yoga
-
I teach mindful movement that includes basic yoga asana (poses), functional movement, gentle strength and soothing movements to calm the nervous system. Our classes begin with gentle movement on the ground, then slowly transition to hands and knees and then standing. We will explore simple sequences with lots of room for modifications for any level of student.
-
You just begin. Your practice will meet you exactly where you are.
I would suggest you begin with a yoga class that suits your schedule and give it a try. If you would rather work privately to help you find confidence before attending a class, I would be happy to guide you. Send me an email if you have any questions or concerns.
-
Absolutely! Flexibility is not a requirement to practice yoga. Some days you will move smoother than others. Getting into a pose is not the focus. Learning how to unwind the body and to move mindfully is how we approach our practice.
-
Yes! Your age is not a barrier to a fulfilling yoga practice. For all ages, we practice nourishing movement. However, it is important in our group classes that you are able to get down on the ground and up again. Feel free to practice with a chair nearby support if that is helpful.
-
You should wear clothing that is comfortable for you to move in. Dress in layers so that you can adjust according to your changing temperature. For most of the class we practice in bare feet.
-
We use a lot of props during our practice in many ways. A lot of the props can be simple objects that you have at home. On the minimum, I would suggest a yoga mat, a few blankets or towels, possibly yoga blocks or other items for support. We usually discuss the props needed at the beginning of each class.
-
If you are concerned, please reach out to your doctor or healthcare provider. The yoga that we teach is gentle and we encourage each student to modify their practice so that it feels nourishing to them. At any point in the practice, you are free to take a break, linger longer, change directions and so on. It’s your practice so please move in a way that feels right for you! If you wish to discuss this further, please send me an email and we can discuss it in more detail. email
