โEQUIPMENT & BELONGINGS
-
You are welcome to bring your own mat of course, but there are also plenty to borrow at the studio.
-
Any props you might need are also available to borrow.
-
Please bring the minimum you need for your class.
-
While there are no dedicated changing/showering facilities at the studio, there is ample space in the bathroom should you need to change either before or after your class.
-
Any items you must bring which are not required for practice (including bags, phones etc) must be left outside the studio on the shelves/hooks provided.
-
Please try to avoid bringing valuable items to the studio.
-
Please ensure that phones are turned OFF, and not simply on silent, and left outside of the studio. And please disconnect smart watches so that they don't buzz!
-
No responsibility can be accepted by The Den or their management for any loss or damage to items while on the premises.
-
Windows will be opened between classes, so please wear light layers in case the studio is still chilly. Bare feet are still best, but if you prefer you may wear yoga socks.
ARRIVAL
-
Doors will only open 15 minutes before each class.
-
Please arrive promptly for your class, allowing plenty of time to pay for parking if appropriate.
-
LATE ARRIVAL: I will join you in the studio 5 minutes before your class, and if there is no-one on reception, then the front door will be closed at this time. Arrival after this time may result in you not being able to get in
THE STUDIO
-
Mat-spaces are designated by markings on the floor. Please place the FRONT RIGHT corner of your mat into the marking. And try to resist the urge to choose your "favourite" spot!
-
As you settle on your mat, please be mindful of others in the studio, especially if they are already settled with their eyes closed - they may be meditating, or simply taking a little quiet time to themselves.
TOILET FACILITIES
-
Toilets are available for use in the reception area. Unfortunately, there is no designated changing room, but there is plenty of space in the bathroom if you do need to change.
THE END OF THE CLASS
-
Again, keep the noise to a minimum - let's keep those savasana vibes going!
-
If you have any questions, then please feel free to catch up with me in reception!
CATCH IT BIN IT KILL IT
-
There are plenty of tissues and bins at the studio. Please catch all coughs and sneezes in a tissue, take with you and dispose as appropriate!
LOST PROPERTY
-
Please take extra care to take all belongings (including empty water bottles!) home with you at the end of the class!
-
Anything left behind will be stored, but you will only be able to collect it at your next booked class.
FOR YOUR INFORMATION
-
The studio and reception area are cleaned every day, and between classes as appropriate.
HEALTH FORMS

As you book on to your first class back at the studio, you will be sent an email inviting you to complete an online version of the Student Health Questionnaire. Please complete and submit as soon as possible!

If any aspect of your health changes, please do let your teacher know, in confidence of course, as soon as possible.
