We encourage you to wear anything you feel comfortable to move in, be it cotton, lycra, wool, shorts, longs or shorts, as long as what you wear is fresh and clean and won’t disrupt or hinder your movement. Be free.
Most people wear loose or tight gym type attire. We don’t wear shoes to perform yoga postures.
No you don’t. You can use our mats & blankets, bolsters and props.
Once you’re a member though, you might like to get your own mat and keep it fresh and yours.
Please arrive 5–10 minutes early for group classes and be ready to start on time.
Turn your phone off or on silent. Place your shoes along the hall cubby.
Yoga is for people of all levels of mobility. There are props and chairs if needed and ways of modifying poses for all shapes and sizes. Safely moving in and out of poses is key.
Yoga practice can bring change and that may bring some emotional release. We instinctively or intentionally hold space for one another in a yoga session.
Keep conversation to a minimum in the practice room and enjoy the serene space yourself.
Depending on your mobility and fitness level there are a range of options but you might like to consider a gentler option first. Most of the Hatha classes are a good place to start, particularly: Monday Hatha 10:15am, Wednesday Hatha 9:45am.

Yes they are. In fact, Mysore can be ideal for beginners as you given one to one instruction and you move at a pace that suits you. In a Mysore class beginners and experienced yogis work alongside each other, so there will be a range of abilities in the room. And don’t worry — everyone was a beginner once.
Read more about the Mysore style on the classes page.
Yes. And very easy access. The main door is right on the lane, no steps.
The practice room itself is easy to enter in a wheelchair.
We also have an accessible toilet.
Either directly or indirectly, breathing well and deeply is a component of any yoga practice, so the use of strong deodorants, especially perfumes should be limited. Please do not wear perfume to class.
Even strongly scented laundry powder can be detected in a warm room.
Consider your personal hygiene, arrive for class fresh and in clean practice clothes!
Yes there are! We have one shower. And two bathrooms.You are welcome to use the shower at any time provided you bring your own towel and toiletries.
Carparks 2–6 are ours to use, please help yourself (you can ignore the 15 min restriction)
After 5pm you can park freely down the lane in most carparks.
Parking is limited before 5pm however. Please do not park in the Remax carparks or The Flower Crate Parks (No.1 + next right) before 5pm.
Cook Street is quite good during the day for a good one hour or two of parking.
