please help keep tranquil space "tranquil" through adherence to the following requests. it's great to develop awareness both off and on the mat of how we affect the world around us and how we can best experience our own tranquil space within.
 
  • when entering the studio: breathe. let go. you've arrived!
  • your yoga practice begins as soon as you walk in the front door and greet the friendly front desk team. lines can sometimes be long, but by working together, arriving 15 minute before class begins, breathing, and practicing patience, everyone will get on the mat in a timely manner!
  • we are a shoe free environment! please remove your shoes and store in a cubby as soon as you walk in. or, carry your shoes to the tea lounge for storage.
  • always sign in at the front desk before entering the studio.

  • the sky studio sign-in sheet is blue like the sky, and the sky studio is upstairs (think "high in the sky"). the bamboo studio sign-in sheet is green like live bamboo and the bamboo studio is located on the second floor. the earth studio sign-in sheet is brown like the earth, and the earth studio is located on the ground floor (the same level as the check-in desk).
  • some class times are more popular than others; please arrive 10-15 minutes before class begins. feel free to use our webscheduler to secure a spot ahead of time. when you arrive for class, initial by your pre-printed name on the sign-in clipboard.
  • you can schedule or cancel a class online up to 1 hour before class starts. no phone reservations or cancellations will be accepted. if you see that a class is no longer available for online sign-in, it doesn't mean the class is full Â- just that the sign-up period has passed.
  • please practice timeliness as each class is organized with an initial centering, vinyasa practice & relaxation. if you are late, wait until the initial centering is complete and the teacher opens the door to invite you into the studio.
  • if possible, shower before your practice and avoid wearing heavy perfumes. other yogis may be allergic to such scents.
  • wear comfortable clothing. please bring a yoga mat, hand towel, and water if you have them. if not, these items are available at the studio for a fee.
  • please turn off cell phones as we are a cell phone free environment! no beeps, vibrations, or lights please!
  • the use of your own mat is encouraged, as rental mats are not as hygienic.
  • keep your valuables with you at all times. although we are in a sacred yoga studio, we still live in a metropolitan area.
  • be mindful of how & where you place your mat. align the center of your mat behind a daisy on the floor, and graciously make space for others.
  • mention any pre-existing injury or special condition to the teacher at the beginning of the class so that he/she can help you.
  • it is encouraged that you place a tissue between the studio eyepillows and your eyes.
  • neatly return blankets, eyepillows & straps. return rental mats to the office. throw used towels in the hamper outside the sea studio.
  • class passes are offered to reward consistent practice. they are valid for 3 months only with no extensions. all passes are non-refundable and non-transferrable.
  • practice self-compassion, find your edge and take a breather if needed. let your practice be a place of growth, challenge, and tranqulity.
  • view additional suggestions from yoga journal.

but all we're doing is burying our authentic selves alive."
