Wear loose fitting clothes. You may choose to bring a water bottle.
If you are attending in person, no yoga mat is necessary.
If you are attending on zoom, makes sure you have a carpeted floor, rug, or thicker yoga mat if we do any floor exercises.
What does a hybrid class mean?
Hybrid means you can either attend in person or attend live online via zoom, or do a mix of both!
The online option is best for non local students or those who prefer to avoid travel in the comfort of their own home!

Inquire to anna@soljoy.life regarding family multi member and/or group discount rates.
If I attend by zoom, what do I need to prepare in my space?
First, ensure a good internet connection to optimize your class experience from a laptop. A phone is difficult to see so we recommend a laptop or full screen tv.
Next, make sure you are fully present, video on. Treat this as if you are in person.
This means, no driving, no noisy backgrounds, no kids and pets running in and out, no other window tabs open online, no eating, no walking around with the camera on your cell phone, etc.
If you need to go to the bathroom midway simply go do that and turn your video off then on to indicate you are not present.
Having your video on means the instructor can see your body and make corrections or modifications as necessary.
Finally, make sure you have a carpet floor or thicker mat for floor work.
What if I can't make some of the dates? I can only make certain class dates or am out of town for other classes.
Simply drop into class anytime. If you come at least weekly, you receive a 20% savings on class tuition.

What is Qigong, Tai Chi, and DahnMuDo?
"Qi" means "energy." "Gong" means "practicing the skill of". So Qigong is the practice of energy and is any movement that awakens, circulates, and moves energy.
