Class Guidelines

Try not to eat for 2-3 hours prior to class (but be sensible – fainting is worse than eating)

Wear comfortable clothing that allows freedom of movement – workout wear is perfect (note, this isn’t a fashion show – be comfortable)

Leave your phone in the car (check in to Ten Toes on Facebook, then leave it in the glovebox)

We have mats, but you are welcome to bring your own if you prefer.  Always bring a mat and towel to Hot Yoga classes.

Avoid wearing perfume to class as it may aggravate others’ allergies

Be a few minutes early to class to begin the centring process and avoid disrupting others. The door will be locked once class commences.

It almost never happens, but should the studio capacity be filled before you arrive you will not be able to stay for class.  If you’re on time, but don’t get to participate in the class because the studio is full (and time permits) the teacher may at their discretion take down your name and add a free class to your account to use at a later date.

Stay for Savasana – this is a vital part of Yoga practice and leaving early disrupts the rest of the class

Respect the limitations of your body by working around its weaknesses and never forcing a stretch (this should be at the top, really)

Discuss any injuries or physical issues with the teacher prior to class

We recommend taking any class three times before you make up your mind about it (the first time it’s all new, the second time you think it was easier the first time and the third time you recognise the rhythm of the class and warm to the teacher, so you have a chance to enjoy it)

Remember that Yoga is strictly non-competitive
