Frequently Asked Questions
Who can practise yoga?
Yoga is suitable for everyone, old or young, fit or not so fit. If you have a specific medical condition please let me know before the start of the first class, to ensure that what you practise is appropriate for you personally.
I'm very stiff - I can't even touch my toes!
Yoga is not really about being flexible. With regular practice, yoga will help develop your flexibility and strength but, more importantly, yoga will help you to develop awareness. This helps us to live life more fully, whether or not we are bendy. The Satyananda approach incorporates the whole person, not just the body.
Do I need to bring anything with me?
I provide all equipment for the pregnancy and postnatal classes. If you are coming to other classes, bring a yoga mat, cushion, and blanket.
Can I eat before coming?
It is recommended that you do not eat for at least two hours beforehand. However, if you need to eat within this period - especially if you are a pregnant woman - a banana or a few biscuits or similar half an hour before class shouldn't be a problem.
What clothes should I wear?
Loose comfortable clothing is recommended. The most important thing is to feel comfortable and relaxed.
