I see you teach two styles of yoga... what are these?
Kundalini yoga is a dynamic practice, great for all levels of fitness, and includes a lot of movement synchronised with breath, chanting, and mediation, as well as wonderful movements to increase strength and flexibility. This is a deeply spiritual practice. Check out this link for more.
ISHTA yoga is classical integral hatha yoga - sometimes yin, sometimes vinyasa/flow, and the pace and style depend on climate, season, time of day and mood. Postures are great for strength, flexibility, balance, and calming the mind. Here is more info.
What should I wear?
Anything comfortable that you can move in. There are no 'rules', but we suggest your clothes permit ease of movement. In Kundalini Yoga, we traditionally try to wear white, but this isn't compulsory.
Do I need a mat?
A mat becomes a yogis good friend. Worth the investment! It is recommended to purchase one of your own, however, for the occasional "I forgot my mat at home", there are a few spares around.
What if I have injuries?
Please speak to your teacher before the class. Modifications can then be easily offered.
Any other questions?
