| Your first class: Please arrive 20 minutes early. This will give you time to register, meet your instructor, ask any questions you may have. There is no need to reserve ahead of time...just come on in. |
| Hydration is important so drink plenty of water the day of your class. Some yoga postures squeeze and flush your kidneys; this releases toxins in your body. Water is needed to help flush those toxins out. It is also extremely important to drink water after class. You will be sweating, and drinking water will help your body more efficiently replenish the fluid that was lost during class. |
| Don't push yourself too hard in class. Don't be frustrated if you feel like a beginner - You Are! Frustration will only limit your growth. It takes time to learn postures and get used to the heat. ENJOY your experience; it's the best way to get the full benefit of what yoga has to offer Remember that consistent practice is important. You will only improve over time. Practice is the mother of skill and skill is the mother of mastery. |


| Yoga is best done on an empty stomach, so try not to eat at least two hours before class. If you must eat, fruit is the best option as it is easily digested. |
| Wear light, breathable clothing that you will be comfortable sweating in and that will not restrict your movement. You will not need shoes during class so make sure you take them off before entering the yoga room at all times. |
