BEFORE YOU ARRIVE

Plan to arrive early. Arriving at least 10 minutes early helps you and your fellow students to settle in, set up your spaces and prepare for the class.
 

It is best to avoid eating right before class. If you practice yoga on a full stomach, you may experience discomfort. We recommend not eating or eating very lightly 1-2 hours before class.

 
 

WHILE YOU'RE HERE

Please turn off all electronic devices before coming into class (the one exception: first responders who are on call).

Please keep voices quiet in the Yoga Studio so as not to disturb others who may already be preparing for practice.

When possible, please allow the previous class on the schedule to exit and the room swept before entering to practice.

Tell your teacher about injuries or conditions that might affect your practice including menstruation and pregnancy. Our teachers are very knowledgeable and will help you with modifications and with specific poses for your situation.

Pick up and neatly put away all props you use. Please do not double roll the studio sticky mats. Maintaining a clean, well-ordered studio is a continual communal effort and promotes peace of mind for all!

If you must leave class early, please let the teacher know beforehand and leave before Savasana (Corpse pose), the final pose of class. Leaving during this pose can be disruptive to your fellow students.

Please refrain from wearing any scented products. These odors can be intensified when your body is heated during practice. Please be mindful of and compassionate toward people who are sensitive to these types of chemicals.

As classes fill, please accommodate your fellow students by making space for them. People are often shy about asking.

If you find yourself walking about in class it is a good practice to not step on other people's mats.

 
 

BEFORE YOU GO

Please be mindful of your belongings as you are leaving the studio. We will donate all items left at the studio to local charity organizations every two weeks. Please contact staff@yogasource-santafe.com if you believe you may have left something behind.
