Will we meditate during the classes?
„Asana is meditation in action.“ (BKS Iyengar). When we practise yoga asanas your mind is alert, active and focussed on the actions of the postures and on the breathing. Practising the postures is meditation in itself. Usually there is a 5 – 10 minute relaxation period at the end of the class.

I have my period. Can I do yoga?
You can do almost all asanas apart from upside-down positions. Advise the teacher before the class if you have your period.

I have chronic backache. Can I do yoga?
Yes, unless your doctor tells you not to. Everyone works according to their own abilities. There are special positions that help to strengthen the back and the muscles. It is important to inform the teacher before the lesson if you have back problems.

Please arrive five minutes before the class starts to give you enough time to get changed and set up your mat. When you come for the first time advise the teacher of any medical conditions before the class.

What should I wear?
Wear something comfortable that allows you to move freely - ideally, leggings and a t-shirt.

Can I eat before a lesson?
It is better not to eat for two to three hours beforehand because practising the asana positions also has an impact on the internal organs, especially the digestive system.

What do I need to bring?
All equipment is provided by the school.
