New here?
Your first class, without the nerves.
- 1.
You don't need to be flexible
That is like saying you are too dirty to have a bath. Every pose has an easier version and we will show you it without making a thing of it.
- 2.
Bring nothing but water
Mats, blocks, straps, bolsters and blankets are all here and cleaned between classes. Wear anything you can move in.
- 3.
Arrive ten minutes early
Take your shoes off at the door, tell the teacher if you have an injury or are pregnant, and pick any spot you like.
- 4.
Rest whenever you want
Child's pose is always allowed. Nobody will ask why, and nobody is watching.
Example review
“I put off coming for two years because I thought I was too stiff. First class, Hannah had me on two blocks and a bolster and I nearly fell asleep. I have not missed a Thursday since.”
Example review
“Small enough that the teacher learns your name and your bad knee. The restorative class on a Sunday evening is the best hour of my week.”
