LBNL Yoga Club

Yoga Classes

All Yoga Club classes are currently virtual.

Prepare

• • Download waiver before your first class; sign & send to Yoga Contacts

  • 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

  • Modify poses for yourself as needed - this is YOUR practice!

  • Keep on mute unless you have a comment or 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.

  • Get creative for props: No mat? A rug or the floor will work just fine; consider a blanket or pillow to pad your knees. No blocks? Try heavy books, sturdy luggage, sofa cushions, nearby furniture. For a strap, try a towel or clothing.

What to Expect

• • Classes tend to involve stretching, balancing, strengthening, flow, and core work. Participants should modify poses for themselves as needed.

  • Classes end with a few minutes of relaxation while lying down (savasana).

Payment

• • Paid: Monday and Friday classes with Ashley & Elizabeth are a sliding scale of $12-20 (see below or calendar event for online payment methods)

  • Free: Other classes are taught generously for free by Lab employees.
