Suggestions for Class

In order to have the most peaceful and affective experience with Yoga Popular, please keep in mind the following suggestions before attending class:

Come at least 5-15 minutes early. This is especially important on the first day as you may need to take extra time becoming situated in the classroom.
Dress comfortably in clothing made out of stretch material so that your shirt or pants don't go flying over your head in inversions!
Bring a towel and/or a non-slip yoga mat. For days when we are in the grass, a towel works best. But if the grass is dewy, we'll be on the concrete and a yoga mat would be most comfortable.
If you are new to yoga or have a tight body/injury, you may benefit from bringing along yoga blocks, a yoga band, a cushion to sit on, and a blanket to fold up beneath your body. These are not necessary but recommended for those who may need them.
Do not eat a big meal before practice. If you do, eat at least two hours before class. If you need a light snack, that is absolutely fine.
It is not recommended to drink a lot of water during class, but if you body is asking for it, a few sips are okay. Just remember- the emptier the stomach, the better in yoga.
Do not wear strong perfumes or deodorants, bulky jewlery or watches.
