Frequently Asked Questions

"Do I need to call ahead or sign up before taking a class?" No, it is not necessary to pre-register for any of our classes. Just come about 15min before a class of your choice to allow for time to fill out a registration card and get situated.

"What should I wear and what do I need to bring? Please dress in comfortable exercise clothes (barefoot in the Yoga room) and bring a small hand towel, water and a Yoga mat, if you own one. Please avoid wearing lotion on hands and feet (which could cause you to slip) and strong perfume. We have public mats available at no fee, but in general we encourage students to purchase their own mats for hygienic reasons

"Do you offer any specials for new students? "]We offer the popular "1 Week Unlimited Intro to Yoga" Special for new students for only $30 which allows you to take as many classes as you can in one week. Please note this is available for San Diego residents only.
