I've never done yoga before, what should I wear? Do I need a mat? Can I rent or purchase one at the studio?
Wear comfortable clothes that you can easily move and stretch in. We have yoga mats and towels that can be rented from the center. You can also add mat and towel service to your membership and never have to worry about bringing your mat again!
Do I need to check in before class, make a reservation for class, or can I just show up?
Yes, you always need to check in for class from you arrive at the center. You will receive a key tag that you will use to swipe-in at the front desk for each class. You can make a reservation online for classes or just show up and sign in. Click here for more information on reserving a class online.
How do I choose which type of Yoga to try? With so many choices, can I try more than one?
Foundation classes are a great place to start. It is a good idea to try several different styles to see what resonates with you best. While most classes are suitable for all levels, the Hatha and YHot classes perfect for beginners. There are also a number of classes that are specifically marked as 'beginner or foundation'.

What if I just can't do a pose?
No problem! At one time in our early lives we couldn't walk and through practice we got there. The teacher will offer different variations of the poses so that everyone can benefit and each time you come to class you will learn a little bit more. Remember there is no such thing as not being "good" at yoga.
What membership should I get?
We offer have a variety of memberships to suit your lifestyle. If you are new to YYoga, start with the 2 weeks for $35; this will give you unlimited yoga for 2 weeks! If you plan on coming to yoga more than once a week, the best value is the 12 month unlimited membership, which only is $22.11 per week.
