Frequently Asked Questions

 

Why should I take yoga?

Do you want to decrease stress and increase strength and flexibility?  If you answered "yes" then give yoga a try.  Yoga means “union” of the body and mind.  Some yoga classes are more athletic, while others are more meditative and relaxing.  We offer many class styles to match your needs; try several to determine what works best for you.

Do I need to be in shape to take yoga?

Yoga is for all shapes, sizes, ages and fitness levels.  Yoga is non-competitive, "egos" are left at the door. 

What should I wear to class?

Comfortable, form fitting clothing works best.  Shoes and socks are left outside the studio. 

What should I bring to class?

You are encouraged to bring your own yoga mat, however, we do offer mats for sale/rent.  Also, please bring a towel and water bottle to keep you comfortable and hydrated. 

What if I’m not flexible?

No problem, yoga helps increase flexibility, release joint tension and increase mobility; ultimately decreasing risk of injury.


Should I eat before class?

It is best to avoid eating meals 2 hours before taking a yoga class.  Practicing yoga on a full stomach can lead to nausea and cramping during class.  

Is yoga a religion?

No, yoga is not a religion. The philosophies of yoga are universal and can be incorporated within any belief system.  Simply put, yoga fosters spirituality.  

What if I can’t sit still and meditate?

Yoga isn’t about sitting in meditation.  Zenergy Yoga classes are very active, energizing and calming all at the same time.  Even the extreme “Type A’s” can reap great benefits in yoga class.  You will learn skills to keep the mind calm while faced with challenging or stressful situations, which will help you find balance in your personal and work life.
