Yoga Classes
Prepare
Give yourself extra time to change, set up mat/props, log in to Zoom, etc.
Prop up your device where you can view it and be seen
Wear comfortable clothes in which you can move, stretch, lie down
Let the instructor know if you're new to yoga or have any injuries
Keep on mute unless you have a question, to ensure everyone can hear the instructor
Consider turning on your video to contribute to community experience, and provide visual feedback for the instructor to tune their instruction.
Be creative for props: No mat? A rug or floor is fine; use a blanket or pillow to pad your knees if needed: Heavy books for blocks, a towel for a strap.
Download waiver before your first class; sign & send to Yoga Contacts
