9 easy steps to get the most out of your experience:

  1. Download a copy of Zoom to your laptop or smartphone, or you can access it from your web browser: Click Here
  2. Find a quiet space where you won’t be disturbed, and have sufficient space to move without knocking into any furniture , a yoga mat or suitable carpet, yoga blocks or a few different sized  cushions to help modify your posture.
  3. Check you have a solid internet connection in order to get the best out of the experience.
  4. Use a good quality set of speakers to make sure you can hear the webinar.
  5. Don’t eat heavily before the session, ideally 2 hours after food.
  6. Have some paper and a pen handy if taking notes are useful
  7. I may need to mute your sound as it can interfere with the overall quality of sound If you have a question please raise your hand and I’ll unmute you, I encourage questions and there will be moments for sharing experiences.
  8. Adjust background lighting so it’s not too bright, otherwise you will only appear as a silhouette, and use some form of spotlight/lighting on you so the teacher can see you clearly and offer appropriate advice and feedback.
  9. Have available yoga blocks or a variety of cushion sizes to help modify positions, and posture , yoga strap or scarf ,and  2 small towels rolled up to help adjustments.
