YOGA ETIQUETTE

* For continuing students, please arrive 5-10 minutes early. While waiting you can practice a pose or just
sit or lie quietly, breathe and get centered.
* Yoga is practiced barefoot. Shoes go on the shoe rack outside the door
and cell phones or pagers should be shut off at this time.

* It is best to do yoga on an empty stomach. Try and eat at least 1-2 hours before class. If you
practice on a full stomach, you might experience
cramps, nausea, or vomiting, especially in twists, deep
forward bends and inversions. Digesting food also takes
energy and can make you lethargic.

condition or an injury of any kind.

others. Be aware that some people are allergic to these scents.

you use a studio mat, please wipe it clean with the cloths provided after
use.
* Come with an open mind and an open heart and enjoy the positive and
