Before the class

Please be sure to inform the Yoga teacher of any serious health problems, such as neck or back injuries, heart disease, high blood pressure, recent surgery etc. In any extreme case, you should consult a physician before joining the Yoga class. If your doctor is not familiar with Yoga, show her or him pictures of the postures or ask them to contact your yoga teacher. 

During the class

In all Postures (Asanas), the breathing should be done through the nose only and not through the mouth. Your body is unique to everyone else's. Always listen to your body. Never hesitate or feel embarrassed to release the Posture before others or before the teacher instructs. Gradual, relaxed stretching and using the breath (inhaling or exhaling depends on positions in the Posture) to reach the Posture will always give you better results. Relax as much as possible, do all the Postures in slow gradual movements and in a continuous manner. Avoid strain or bounce while stretching and never jerk into or out of a Posture.
