Yes, we require preregistering to secure your spot, as our classes are super popular and space is limited! By registering, you'll guarantee your place in the class.

What should I wear?

Arrive Early: Arrive at least 10-15 minutes before class starts to check in, set up your space, and settle in.
Silence Your Phone: Ensure your phone is turned off or silenced before entering the studio.
Remove Shoes: Leave your shoes outside the practice area to keep the space clean.
Introduce Yourself: If you’re new or have any injuries, inform the instructor before class begins.

During Class:

Respect Personal Space: Place your mat mindfully, giving others enough room to move and practice comfortably.
Listen to Your Body: Follow the instructor’s guidance, but never push yourself into pain or discomfort.
Minimize Distractions: Avoid talking and unnecessary movements during class. If you need to leave early, let the instructor know beforehand and position your mat near the exit.

After Class:

Clean Your Space: Wipe down any studio props or borrowed mats and return them neatly.
