Class Niceties
Please arrive at least five minutes or so before the class is due to begin, this gives you time to say hello to the rest of the group and arrange your mat etc. before settling down.
“Change is not something that we should fear. Rather, it is something that we should welcome. For without change, nothing in this world would ever grow or blossom, and no one in this world would ever move forward to become the person they’re meant to be.”Anonymous
If you do arrive late and can see that the group is already quietly unwinding/meditating, please wait outside until posture work begins, it can be very disturbing for others to hear the opening and closing of doors, the rolling out of mats and general arranging of belongings.
At St. Francis Hall, please remove and leave shoes in the entrance lobby, along with coats, umbrellas etc. Space is limited in this hall, so bring in only what is absolutely necessary.
Turn off mobile phones.
If you borrow any equipment during the class, kindly put it away at the end, taking care to place things back in bags in such a way as to make it easy to close and carry them. I am always very grateful for any help carrying bags to my car at the end of the class.
