That depends! (you knew we'd say that). We suggest reading the
class descriptions page to try to identify a style that fits your abilities the best. That said, a Kripalu style class or the Saturday a.m. Anusara class is always a great place to start. For the adventurous type, feel free to try ANY class on the schedule. The Seva team of instructors is always ready and happy to welcome a new Yogi into the fold.

Yoga and the practice of asana is not a religion and does not affilliate with any religion. However you may in fact find a sense of spirituality in the practice as you develop a better sense of connection to your own self. Everyone at Seva is practicing in their own way and with their own unique intentions.

Yoga is a great form of therapy to help you recover from a wide range of aches and pains. Always be sure to let your teacher know of any problems you're having so that we can help you and be an active role in your process. For more serious therapeutic issues we would suggest a private session so the instructor can work with you more closely. And as always, if you have any doubts we suggest you contact your physician to make sure yoga won't exacerbate any issues you're experiencing.

The in-class props are part of the studio's equipment and the instructor will guide you as to how to use them. We also offer rental mats if you don't have one, and when you're ready to buy your own mat or props for home, we have those for sale too! It is a good idea to come to class well-hydrated, and for some of the more vigorous classes you may also wish to bring a hand towel.
