Yoga is a physical activity and, as with any form of exercise, there is a risk of injury. While every effort will be made to provide a safe, gentle, and supportive environment, participation is entirely at your own discretion.
A Registered yoga teacher (London Yoga) will be leading the sessions. She will mainly focus on floor/mat/standing exercises. There will be an opportunity to have a chair near you to aid balance for some movements etc should you need one.
Equipment: You will need a suitable yoga mat and a towel that can be rolled up and a block if you have one. Knee pads may be helpful - ask the teacher. Leggings/loose trousers, a long tee shirt and a warm top would work well. There is a need to prevent slips and trips with appropriate footwear - yoga is often in bare feet but if you prefer foot covering there are yoga socks with toe to heel slip prevention. Do bring some water although there is a kitchen available if needed for water etc.
Health Questionnaire: The teacher has a health questionnaire that needs to be completed prior to you joining the group and before you start. This way the teacher can tailor the session to suit member’s conditions. This completed questionnaire will be given to and held confidentially by the teacher.
It is important that you disclose medical conditions and make the teacher aware of mobility issues. It would also be helpful for her to know whether you have practiced/are currently practicing yoga and what other sports you take part in, including walking/swimming.
There are lists of conditions that might need special care with yoga positions. These include osteoporosis, glaucoma, hyper mobility, long term conditions such as hypertension, balance problems, joint problems, pain. This is not an exhaustive list.
In completing the questionnaire please state any medical issues, concerns or injuries that the teacher should be made aware of. If you are suffering from any condition or injury that could adversely be affected by yoga practice you should first check with your doctor. During the class you should not continue with a posture if you feel any pain or push yourself beyond your ability - listen to your body and work within your limitations and you can rest at any time. The teacher is trained to professional standards. Whilst fully insured to teach, please be aware that you undertake classes at your own risk.
Any subsequent health issues needs to be updated with the teacher.
