First visit
What to expect, in order.
Book the class. Show up fifteen minutes early. Borrow a mat. Tell the teacher anything that hurts. That’s most of it.
The first hour, step by step
You will not need to figure anything out alone.
- Book your class through the website or the app. Vinyasa 2 and reformer fill earliest in the week.
- Arrive fifteen minutes early. The desk gives a five-minute tour: locker room, practice rooms, water, prop closet.
- Set up your spot. Loaner mat, two blocks, a strap. The teacher will point you to a spot near the front so they can see your cueing.
- Tell the teacher. Anything that hurts, anything you’re returning from, anything you don’t want adjusted. Before class, not during.
- After class, stay if you want. Tea is on the counter. Teachers stay ten minutes to answer questions.
Walking in
Quiet front room. Desk on the left. Shoes off at the mat.
The entry is small on purpose — a bench, a shoe rack, two plants the desk keeps alive. Past that, the rooms open. Most first-timers stand at the doorway for a second before someone walks them through. That’s the right amount of time.
Brand new to yoga
Start with Hatha on a Tuesday evening or Saturday morning.
The pace is right for learning. Vinyasa Level 2 is the wrong first class — you’ll spend the hour catching up rather than learning. We have watched too many beginners give up because their first class moved faster than they could keep with.
