β-:: faq ::-
βπ can i still come if i just want to sit and enjoy the meditative space? β Yes!
βπ Do I need a yoga mat? β Yes, please bring it if you have one. If you donβt, message me somehow! I have 3 extras
βπ what if i canβt meditate and havenβt enjoyed yoga classes much before? β You may actually need this more than most, but please listen to your body. You may identify with traits of queerness and/or neurodivergence. If so, I teach for folks like you. Still, not every teacher is for everyone.
βπ What if Iβm not flexible? β setting side my frustration at capitalist & patriarchal yogaβs propaganda here, body exercises are just a small slice of the entirety of yoga. Each and every one has the ability to receive its benefits, which is why I teach in an accessible way, offering multiple options as we go along
