The Practical Stuff

What do I wear?

Do I need to be fit to do yoga?

I can't touch my toes...is that a problem?

What about my weight? Will that be a factor?

Is everybody bendy, or do they just look that way?

I have to work this afternoon..am I gonna need a shower?

I'm too old to do yoga, or...I'm simply too old for this.

I have no sense of balance. Most yoga poses are just too hard for me.

Starting something new can be intimidating , but it doesn't have to be. Not with Yoga @ Work.

Sit back, relax and don't worry. You don't need to be fit; you don't need to wear the latest in groovy

clothing; and 'balance' is a state of mind that we work on - you won't be the least coordinated

person there. We promise. What you can expect is some good laughs, a new way to deal with

stress, and an overall physical fitness level that can only get better the more you practice.

About the shower after yoga: we give you the yoga poses that help you stretch out, and become

limber. The poses are designed to work your muscles, but not so much that you break into a major

sweat! After all, we know you have to work ; and stressing about sweating isn't going to help

reduce your tension.

Please take a moment to read about what you should bring, and what you can expect from us.

• we recommend you wear comfy, body-fitting (not tight) clothes, that can be tucked in, and do not restrict movement

• no shoes on the mat please! (You can wear yogi-toes, or socks with non-slip bottoms, but bare feet are best )

• bring a beach-size towel that covers at least half of the mat

• bring a water bottle with 'easy-off' lid

• please do not eat a big meal prior to your yoga class - best to come hungry or eat something light (fruit) just prior to class

• no cell phones or pagers during your session please

• come with a willingness to let it all go; breathe; and have some fun
