Brentwood Yoga Center



Namaskar Dear Ones,

I don't know about you, but I am really, really enjoying taking and teaching yoga in the safety of my own home. No commute. No carbon footprint.

I hope you can join me for more livestream classes this week! I have decided to offer some specialty classes in order to give our practice more focus. In addition to an all levels class, I am also offering a chair yoga class (you must have a chair or two for this class and while yoga chairs are best, you can use a regular chair from your home), and a rope wall class (you should have your own set of ropes, or two long straps and a door that closes. I will show how to make your own long ropes).

I use the Zoom platform. I recommend downloading the Zoom App prior to the class. You just have to open it up before we start and type in the meeting ID and password.

I highly recommend using a computer. A laptop will give you the most versatility and be much easier for you to see, move around, and navigate. But a tablet (like an iPad) works second best, and your phone will work too--it's just more challenging to see and navigate. If you have trouble with the audio or video, make sure you close all the other open Apps on your device. Other people using internet (especially if they are streaming) in your home can also affect the quality of what you see and hear.

Please note, class times are in Pacific Standard time.

I would like you to have at least 2 blankets (or thick beach towels work well), a strap (or belt, or even the strap from your robe works well), a chair (it doesn't have to be a yoga chair, a dining room chair works too), and a block or two (if you don't have a block, you can fold a towel or blanket up or even use two large cans from you pantry. Two rolls of TP work nicely too! No joke!). You can also make a bolster with a blanket wrapped around two paper towel rolls. If you can't acquire any of these things, don't worry I can give you alternatives.

Please feel free to share this information with your loved ones that need a yoga class. Have then sign up for my emails on the Contact Us Page if they want to receive information about next week and future weeks.

Payment for classes is optional at this time in order to provide a much needed service to those that might be under hardship.
