Yogaviva: yoga classes in Chelmsford, Essex

General Information

Clothing
It is best to wear loose fitting, comfortable clothes – nothing that restricts your movement or your breathing. Yoga is practiced in bare feet but you might like to bring socks for extra warmth during the relaxation.

Equipment
Proper yoga mats are much better than the general aerobic type that are liable to slip. Mats are available to borrow and to buy at the studio. If you have your own and would prefer to use it then you are welcome to do so.

Food
Wherever possible please try not to eat a large meal for a few hours before you come to class – it is not terribly comfortable to have a full stomach while practicing. Please bring water if you need it.

Injuries
Please let us know before your class if you have any injuries/medical conditions. Include relevant details on the questionnaire.

Mobiles
Mobile phones should be switched off before class.

Yoga
Yoga is not competitive! It does not matter if you haven't practiced before - everybody has his or her individual strengths and weaknesses to work with. You will notice how your strength and flexibility increase after just a few sessions. It is very important to listen to your body and only do what you feel you are capable of, making sure to rest if you feel the need to.
