Nothing to guess at the door.

1. You arrive a little early

   The door opens ten minutes before class. There is a place for shoes and bags, a chair if you would like to sit, and a glass of water. Nobody will rush you.

2. A quiet word

   Before class the teacher asks your name and whether there is anything you would like her to know, such as a tired back, a knee that complains or simply a first time. You tell as much or as little as you like.

3. You settle

   A mat, a block and a blanket are set out for you. The class begins lying or sitting, with a few slow breaths and no performance.

4. You move at your own pace

   Each movement comes with a choice: bigger, smaller or a different shape altogether. Resting is always part of the class and nobody is watching to see whether you do.

5. You rest at the end

   The class closes with a few quiet minutes. Then there is tea, if you would like it, and a chance to ask anything. There is no sales talk.

Afterwards you can book another class, ask a question or go home and think about it. There is no pressure to decide anything on the day.
