Eating before a class?
It is important not to eat prior to the yoga class, best to do it on an empty stomach, so ensure that you haven’t eaten for at least 1 ½ hours before the class.
If you run late
Sometimes you might be running late, no worries, come along when you can, just come into the room quietly. Better that you have 30 mins of good stuff rather than none at all.
Remember
This is your time. Complete indulgence for yourself to chill out, get some exercise and feel really good afterwards.
