Yoga Class

Yoga class

Rule #1 - Don't take up too much space, especially in a crowded class.

Rule #2 - Let's keep the showing off to a minimum. Yes, headstands look great, but is it necessary in class?

Rule #3 - Do not leave in the middle of the class. The instructor seems to frown upon this interruption, as well as the others trying to concentrate within the room. Your exit may disrupt the class flow. not to mention it's just plain disrespectful.

Rule #4 - Must studios have a no-shoe policy? So DO NOT wear shoes while on the mat.

Rule #5 - Breathing extremely loud. Deep breaths are ok as long as you're not obnoxious about it. Loud grunts tend to be annoying to others.
