Can I bring my child to class with me?
Many of our instructors offer verbal cues and will walk around the room. You can request assistance at any time. If the instructor approaches you to offer hands-on assistance, they will always ask your permission first. If you prefer no assistance, please let reception or the teacher know ahead of time. We will always be respectful and mindful of your space.
Which is why you do yoga!! Increased flexibility is one of the many wonderful benefits of practicing yoga, although not the end goal. Our instructors are excellent and will help you modify with verbal cues or props so the pose fits you!
We offer kids yoga programs from time to time and family yoga but not regularly. We allow minors 13 and over in our adult classes with a signed waiver from the parent/guardian. We need to ensure that all yoga students are safe for their developmental stage with regard to their body and brain.
We do not allow new students into class late. The teacher will want to get to know you first and we need to pre-register you. If you are an existing student and running late, please call ahead at (732) 600-8030 to let us know so that we can leave the door open for you.
What if I am late?

Congratulations! We are honored you chose us to guide you. We are a friendly, warm and strive to make EVERYONE feel welcome. Please let the instructor or reception know of any injuries, limitations or concerns you may have so we can help you stay safe. Feel free to call us if you would like advice on which classes to begin with. In general, our beginner and foundations classes are a good place to start. Please wear comfortable clothing and bring water with you (not in glass containers). Take a look at the studio etiquette above to familiarize yourself with the studio do's and don'ts. Lastly, try different classes and different teachers! One size does not fit all, and you may find a different style or teacher that suits you. Experiment!
I'm not flexible.
