Guidelines & Frequently asked questions
Guidelines
Please be sure to tell me if you have any injuries, recent illness/surgery, if you are pregnant or just had a baby. This allows me to ensure your yoga practice is right for your body today. You can email me at hello@meganjanewellness.co.uk (for online classes) or pull me aside at the start of class.
Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to breath and move freely. Yoga generally is practiced in bare feet to allow you to find more stability and balance on the mat. If you would prefer to keep your feet covered, you can purchase a pair of yoga socks to prevent slipping on your yoga mat.

It is preferable you purchase your own yoga/workout mat. This will allow you to find more stability on the mat, prevent slipping and protect joints from hard floors. You could consider using a large bath towel, carpet, or rug but you may find more comfort on a yoga/workout mat. I have included mats for purchase below at different price points. These are just recommendations, and you are welcome to buy or use any mat you have.
1. Decathalon £22.99
2. Yoga Matters £39.00 (includes mat, x2 blocks and yoga strap) I highly recommend this yoga starter kit.
3. Yogi Bare £74.95
At in-person classes I will supply mat, blocks and straps but please feel welcome to bring your own mat and yoga props.
Please allow time for your body to digest and eliminate liquids prior to your yoga practice. This will allow for a much more comfortable practice however do not worry if you need excuse yourself to use the loo.
If you do need to leave the class at any time due to any circumstances please do, no explanation needed. I’ve left my mat many times in the middle of a yoga practice – some days you might not be feeling in and that’s 100% okay. Please do contact me after the class if you feel like you need to chat.

You absolutely do not need to be able to touch your toes to join my yoga classes.
Yoga is for everyone, regardless of flexibility or experience level. The practice of yoga is about connecting with your body and mind, and working within your own range of motion. Over time, with regular practice, you may find your flexibility improving but if it doesn’t that’s okay! Yoga is not about what it looks like on the outside but how it feels on the inside!
At the end of the day, yoga is a personal journey and each person's progress will look different. I invite you to join the community and explore yoga at your own pace.
