ALL-LEVELS CLASSES are appropriate for students all levels and abilities who are interested in yoga practice in the Iyengar method.

Recommended props: Yoga mat, yoga belt, yoga blocks (2). Household items such as a firm blanket, a beach towel, dish towel, or firm cushions can also be utilized. Alternatives and modifications will be offered for students whether they have props or not. Please consider getting a full set of props, you will get so much more out of your practice having them. It's a worthy investment and well made props will last you a lifetime. See suggested resources here.

INTERMEDIATE CLASS

Participants are requested to have yoga mat, belts (2), bricks (2), blankets (3-5) and a yoga chair. This class is not recommended for students who are beginners, have never done Iyengar Yoga or are new to online yoga. Modifications and alternatives will be offered for those with physical limitations and/or health conditions.

ZOOM TIPS

It’s helpful but not necessary to have a Zoom account. You can sign up free of charge. If possible, familiarize yourself with Zoom and its settings. Zoom offers troubleshooting and tutorials.

Athena cannot offer Zoom tech support to you at any time before, during or after the class. If you are have trouble with your connection, try logging out and back into Zoom. If your Internet connection is slow (perhaps many people in your home online) or you have a weak signal you may experience difficulty. Sometimes turning off video on your end helps.

SET UP FOR CLASS

Assemble your props and pick a space to practice. At minimum, please have a mat, block, blanket(s) and strap available. Having the use of a wall is helpful as well. If you don’t have props, modifications will be offered to the best extent possible. Be ready to begin 5–10 minutes prior to start of class. Bring other props like a bolster or chair if you have/need them. Set up your device or computer, it should be 6-8 feet away from your mat so the teacher can see your entire pose. A laptop works best. It’s helpful if your viewing device is up on a chair or coffee table so you can see the teacher more easily. Consider opening Zoom and start a meeting with video so you can adjust your screen to ensure the teacher has a good view. Most important is to show up and enjoy the class!

DURING CLASS

Your audio will be muted during class. If you have a question, you can unmute and ask. Make sure the volume on your viewing device is turned up. You can turn your video off if you prefer. You will still be able to see and hear the teacher. Instructor cannot provide technical (Zoom) support during class. If you experience technical difficulties, try logging out of meeting and then rejoin. Classes will NOT be recorded.

IMPORTANT: This is a very different format than an in-person class. The teacher will not be able to see and help individuals in the same way. Please take care of yourself! If something is not appropriate for you, please opt out of the pose.
