About Our Club

1.  What do we do in yoga club?

 

We perform certain asanas (poses) that prepare our body and mind for meditation, hold group discussions about topics central to the yogic philosophy and lifestyle, and meditate together. Occasionally we dance! (See below)

 

2.  Do I need any experience with yoga to participate? Is this a big commitment? 

 

No experience or familiarity with yoga is required or expected. Student coordinators will lead the asanas and guide the discussion. You are welcome to participate as much or as little as you like, attend every meeting or only one, but there are always opportunities to go further. We encourage you to talk to the coordinators if you are interested in getting more involved.

 

3.  What if I'm not flexible?

 

Everyone has to start somewhere! Also, most of the asanas we perform are not very physically demanding, so don't let flexibility worry you.

 

4.  What should I wear when I practice asanas?

Loose, comfortable clothing is best, to maintain modesty and to provide freedom of movement.  No special clothes, outfits, or equipment are needed or desired.   

 

5.  Should I bring a yoga mat?

You do not need a yoga mat, but feel free to bring one if it is comfortable for you.
