What can I expect when I come to a yoga class at Wildflower Studio?
Support, no matter where you're at (physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually), encouragement to grow in the places that matter to you, and safety. All instructors at Wildflower Studio are registered with the Yoga Alliance®, a US-based non-profit that works to uphold high standards of education and safety for teachers and students.
What this means in an actual class setting is that:
-
physically - modifications and tools are provided so that all bodies can feel good in whatever posture is practiced; instructors provide alignment guidance and invite exploration to help you safely discover what works best.
-
emotionally - any expression of emotion is welcome as long as it does no harm to others
-
mentally - whether you're feeling energetic or drained, class will offer you a way to engage as deeply (or not) as you wish
-
spiritually - no personally held belief is superior to someone else's personal belief; all walks of life are welcome in class
At Wildflower Studio, every participant is encouraged to find what is right for their own body and mind and feel empowered to do what is right for them. When you come to class here, you can expect to leave feeling better than when you arrived.
Can I show up to class or do I have to book online before?
Please book your spot ahead of time to ensure that there will be space for you and to guarantee the class will happen. The studio can hold a maximum of 6-8 people and preference will be given to individuals that booked in advance online. Furthermore, if there are no bookings for a class within one hour of beginning, OR for 5:30 am classes by 10pm the night before, the class may be canceled. When booking your class, you can choose to pay in advance or in person.
What do I need to bring?
Nothing! You may bring your own yoga mat if you wish. Otherwise, we have everything here for you to use as needed. Wear clothing that is comfortable to move around in!
Will yoga actually benefit me?
Yes. No matter your current activity level or ultimate fitness goal, yoga will improve your quality of life.
According to a 2011 study from The University of Mississippi "...yogic practices enhance muscular strength and body flexibility, promote and improve respiratory and cardiovascular function, promote recovery from and treatment of addiction, reduce stress, anxiety, depression, and chronic pain, improve sleep patterns, and enhance overall well-being and quality of life."
