TIPS FOR ONLINE CLASSES
I am using the software "Zoom" to deliver my online classes. It is free for you to use, you just have to click on the link in the confirmation or reminder email that you will receive after paying for a class. If you are using an iPad or phone I believe you have to download the Zoom app first. You don't need to from a laptop or desktop. You don't need to register or create an account.
It is a good idea to click on the link 5-10 minutes before the start of the class so we can get the settings correct and say hello (click on the file below for instructions). Please note, if you are joining my meditation classes I won't be able to "let you in" early, before the published start time of the class, as I will be finishing off a yoga class.
Ideally your mat or chair should be arranged so that when you look at yourself on screen you can see as much of yourself as possible - that is the view I have and it is preferable if I can keep an eye on you to ensure safe practice. I appreciate this isn't always possible though depending on your space. Once we start the class you'll just see me on screen.
If possible, find a quiet place in your home to do your class, ideally where you won't be interrupted. Some people are enjoying joining my classes from their gardens!
Ensure your phone is turned to silent so it won't disturb you and make sure the device you are running the class on is fully charged.
You may like to have some props to hand - for the regular yoga classes these could include a belt, a block or cushion to sit on, and a yoga brick or a sturdy book - but I tend to email participants if we are going to use anything specific so don't worry too much, For the Chair Yoga classes we always use a belt (a dressing gown belt works well if you don't have a yoga belt, or a stretchy pilates band) and a ball - such as a tennis or golf ball, don't worry if you don't have either of these items though, we only use them for a short part of the class. For meditation - you are welcome to sit on a cushion or on a chair or even lie down. for the Yoga Nidra classes please look at the Yoga Nidra page (click here) for the full list of props that could be helpful.
