Have you wanted to try a yoga class, but are nervous about what to do? Here are some tips to help you feel more comfortable:
• You don't need to wear special clothing for a yoga class, but might want to wear a shirt that is a little more fitted, so it doesn't fall up around your ears as you bend over.
• Try to get to the class a few minutes early. The instructors are generally already there, and are happy to help you get started with set-up.
• If you experience claustrophobia, or tend to overheat, try to find a spot near the door.
• Everyone was new once, so, you will find that most members are very helpful if you ask questions.
• Although mats are provided at many facilities for yoga classes, most participants prefer to bring their own. That way, you can take it home and clean it with antibacterial wipes or a cloth with gentle soap and water after a sweaty workout.
• Props include yoga blocks, rugs and straps to help support you in postures where you might have limited motion. The instructor can help you use these tools.
• Classes may vary in intensity and levels. Start with a Yoga 101, if possible, be gentle with yourself and build your practice
• Yoga is really about the breathing, not the postures, so, slow down, enjoy and Namaste!*
*Sanscrit~ 'The Divine in me recognizes the Divine in you', a salutation used at the end of most yoga practices.
