A: That’s a definite, YES. Yoga is all about exploring and growing within. Teachers will determine level and experience of participants and tailor the event to meet everyone’s needs. We welcome those new to yoga and know you will leave feeling refreshed. There is no “wrong-way” to practice yoga and you can follow the teachers instructions and watch movements to learn the flow of the yoga event. Our aim is to make our events great for all levels newbie to seasoned yoga so you do what works best for you and your body and sometimes that means watch, sit, or lay quietly in your own space be watching, sitting. Please always let your teacher know if you have a specific, private need as well so she can accommodate you during the event, in a discrete manner.
A: Anything that is comfortable for you. Please make sure to check if your event is indoors or outdoors and if its climate controlled so you can dress to acclimate to the conditions. Our yoga is done in all environments and weather conditions.
A: You are welcome to bring your own yoga mat, towel, or both for events, but we recommend a towel/mat you don’t mind getting dirty as our events can be outside and the weather may impact ground conditions. We can be on grass/dirt, gravel, brick, pavement, hardwood floors, etc. While we do our best to maintain a space that is clean, we are here to enjoy the farm experience and sometimes that is not as neat and tidy as traditional studio spaces you might be used to.If there are any significant issues or concerns, please bring it to your teachers attention and/or contact us via email with your concerns/questions.
A: Advance online registration is required for all of our events, as space is limited. Please grab your spot online before showing up at event. Registrations will usually close at least 2-8hrs in advance or when space is full. We can sometime accommodate last minute requests but our teachers will not be able to take payment in-person and all registrations will be required before the start of the event.
A: It depends on the host location and type of event. Some events will list if kids or pets are welcome. If it does not, please check with us via email to confirm before registering for your event. Some of our farm hosts have limited space or staffing to accommodate only event participants. So if kids are allowed in the event, they are welcome to sign-up and join you for the event. Some locations may request no outside pets as they may disturb the hosts animals and facilities. If you do bring a pet, if allowed, we ask that you please clean-up after your pets and all must be on leashes, unless otherwise noted.
A: It depends on the setting, the noise level of the location, and music might be a preference of the teacher. Since we will be practicing on active farms, there could be equipment, dogs, animals, cats, bees, insects so be prepared for sunblock, shades, bug spray, flies, etc.
