Hatha yoga means the bringing together or union of the pranic and mental energies. Ha represents prana, the first unit energy. Tha represents the energy of the mind. This is practiced using a systemised series of physical poses, pranayama, and meditation.
Yin Yoga is a practice of asana (physical poses) that are maitained for at least three minutes, mainly floor based, moving into the deeper tissues of the body.
Asana is a Sanskrit word which describes the physical poses we practice in hatha yoga.
Yes, you can use any internet enabled device. You'll need to download the Zoom app, and be sure to join the class 10-15 mins before, so you can adjust your screen position for optimal viewing. Please click on joining an online class for a step by step guide.
Yoga is a very personal practice, whether it's online or in the regular class environment. With time, and with trying different types of yoga, you will settle into something that suits you. Be open to the whole experience of yoga, come to your mat with an open mind and an open heart, and what is best for you will evolve naturally.
Once you have chosen the online class that you want to join, click on the link in the calendar, and you will be prompted to pay via Paypal. Sign into your Paypal account, or you can pay using a card of your choice as a Paypal Guest Checkout.
A mat is the basic equipment you need to enjoy your practice. However, if you dont have one when you first start, just ensure that you have enough space to move, and that you are not going to slip on the surface you are using.....equipment can come at a later date, and you can always ask for advice when you are ready to purchase your first mat.
Give yourself a good ten to fifteen minutes before the start of class to join. This gives you the opportunity to acquaint yourself with the setting up of your tech, the positioning of your camera so that the teacher can best see you. It also gives you the opportunity to settle yourself and enjoy your new online yoga community as well. Try not to rush to your practice and leave it until the last minute, and most definitely dont be late.
This is a resounding no. Following a light meal, its suggesteed to leave it two to three hours before doing yoga, and a heavy meal is four hours. So try and keep this in mind when you book your class.
Before joining a class there is a student health questionnaire that needs to be completed and returned to us. Alternatively you can contact me using any of the available means, and we can discuss in more detail your concerns.
During the class, your mic will be muted, so if you want to play music in the background, then by all means, go ahead. Just remember to keep the volume to a level where you can hear the instruction of the teacher.
Always, always, and I'll say it one more time, always, work within your capacity. Yoga is not about pain or injury. There is no competition in yoga, especially with yourself, so stay within what feels good for you, and stay the right side of pain and injury.
Keep it nice and simple, loose and comfortable. Something that you can move freely in. Theres also no footwear required....not even socks, so take them off and feel the freedom of being barefoot.
Yes, please bring a water bottle with you, and take regular sips from it throughout your practice.
Yes, once you have signed up for a class, you can sign in on as many devices as you like. It enables the teacher to see you from multiple angles, and will benefit your practice.
Yes, they are more than welcome to join a class. Yoga is inclusive, so the more the merrier. They will have to join seperately to you, and book the class in their own name.
If you have obtained prior permission, or as a part of a collaboration, then yes, broadcasting of the class is permitted. Other than this, classes are intended for single personal use only.
Your edge is a term used in yoga to represent reaching the point where you no longer feel comfortable in a pose. We want to stay within our capabilities, to ensure a safe practice.
Yes, most definitely, it is good practice to know not to push yourself too far. Regardless of who is teaching, it is your practice, and nobody knows your body as well as you. So if you need to stop and rest, just take childs pose, or a seated posture, and join in again when you feel ready.
Yes, please ask questions when you feel you need to. The classes are muted, so that there is not interference of background sound, so you can ask questions by typing them into the chat section.
Savasana is a pose at the end of class used to relax the body and assimilate the practice. Leaving early means missing this from the practice, so it is best to stay until the end.
Meditation is a systemised process of moving beyond the thoughts of the mind to a place of calm and stillness, relieving stress and anxiety along with other mental health issues.
Pranayama is the practice of yoga using the breath. Often known as breath -work.
Absolutley not. The online yoga classes are open to everyone of all levels. Simply pay per class. No signing up fee, no monthly membership fees.
