Studio Etiquette

Come to the studio well hydrated. Eat lightly 2-3 hours prior to your practice. Drink plenty of water during and after your class. Adding electrolytes can also be beneficial.

The studio opens 25 minutes before the start of a class and closes 25 minutes after class. Plan to arrive at least 15 minutes early to find parking and to sign-in.

The doors will be closed once class begins and late entries will not be permitted. Please be mindful of our waitlist policy on our policies page.

See our Locations section for parking tips for our studios.

Enter the yoga room quietly and mindfully, setting up your mat and props with care to maintain a calm atmosphere. If you're using hand weights, please place them down gently to avoid accidents or damage to the mirrors.

Align the top center of your mat with the sticker on the floor. If you're new to the practice or require modifications, kindly set up towards the back of the room to avoid disrupting others.

After class, be sure to wipe down any sweat on the floor to ensure a clean and safe space for everyone. If needed, please bring extra towels.

Please do not bring any valuables to the studio as we do not have lockers at the studios. The studio will not be held responsible for missing items. A mat, towel and water are all that are required inside the hot yoga room.

Yoga is all about being mindful, which is hard to do when you are checking your phone or taking selfies. For the sake of your own and other students’ focus, mobile phones are not allowed in the hot room. If you are expecting an emergency call, let your teacher know before class, and set your phone to vibrate.

Many people are sensitive to smells, so avoid wearing perfume, scented lotions, or essential oils during yoga class. Warm bodies and movement will only amplify these scents. And if you love onions, garlic, and other pungent foods, save them for after class. Wash your yoga mat and clothes regularly so that your fellow yogis have an enjoyable class.

Leaving during class can be distracting and may cause lightheadedness. Staying in the room also helps ensure the safety and security of everyone’s belongings.

Do not be scared off by the heat. Go at your own pace and listen to your body. Take rest if you need to, you do not have to do every posture. Please let your instructor know if you have any injuries or medical concerns.
