Although many religions have incorporated Yoga into their practice over the centuries, Yoga by itself is not a religion. Yoga is a way of life and a philosophy to live by.
You will need to purchase an inexpensive yoga mat for your practice and bring a blanket or two. By all means, bring what will make you feel at home! We do have some extra mats and blankets. We also have blocks and straps if needed.
It's best to practice on an empty stomach, so either come before a meal or eat lightly if you need to eat. If you're new to the practice the best way to prepare is to nurture a sense of relaxed adventure. Yoga happens most easily in a relaxed body and mind.
Comfortable clothing that will not bind you. Layers are optimal. We practice in bare feet, but bring warm socks; you may want to wear them for the last part of class when we deeply relax. Make sure that any loose clothing can be belted or tucked in.
