Starting something new can feel a little intimidating, so here are some hints to help you get ready for your first class:
WHAT TO BRING:
*If you have a mat, bring it! If not, we have yoga mats to use at the studio.
*We have blocks, blankets, and bolsters for you to use. Some people bring their own.
*Bring a water bottle. It's a good idea to hydrate!
*Bring an open mind...your body will follow!
WHAT TO WEAR:
*Comfort is key! We'll be inverted (like downward dog) and baggy shirts may inhibit breathing. A closer fitting top may be best. Sweat pants/yoga leggings are a good idea.
*Practicing yoga barefoot is ideal.
*Bring/wear something to stay warm and cozy in savasana and after class.
*No smelly perfumes or lotions! Some people are sensitive to smells and lotions can make hands slide on the mat.
*There is a bathroom at the studio. Sorry, no showers!
WHAT TO KNOW:
*All of our classes are open to everyone, though there may be classes that are a better fit.
*Yoga is done on a "just-right" stomach - not starving and not full!
*This is YOUR practice. Don't worry what the person on the mat next to you is doing.
Their story is not yours.
*Always listen to your body and rest when you want. Child's pose is a great option.
*Arrive 15-20 minutes early to get settled in.
*Have questions? Just ask!
AND REMEMBER:
Your first yoga class isn’t about “doing it right.”
It’s about creating space to feel good in your own body.
At Medfield Yoga, we know most people don’t come to yoga looking for the perfect pose.
They come because they’re stressed out, exhausted, or searching for a little peace.
That’s why everything we do is designed to help you:
-
Leave class with less tension in your body.
-
Sleep more deeply and wake up refreshed.
-
Move through your day with more energy and ease.
-
Feel calmer, clearer, and more like yourself.
Because in the end, yoga isn’t about performance - it’s about how good life feels when you give yourself this time.
