Important Information about In-Person Classes:

The prices will be for either 60 or 90 minutes whether it's for Zoom or in person. However, if you are attending in person, each person pays for class separately (families may share a Zoom class). Any class you bought on Zoom is good for an in- person class and vice versa. The in- person classes will be held on Tuesday and Thursday mornings at our previous studio location on the third floor of 316 East Mitchell (which is now under the purview of the Crooked Tree Dance program).

To attend as a new student call or email Mary to determine which class you should attend and to receive any updates on the schedule. If you own a yoga mat, bring it, although there are mats and other equipment available to borrow at the studio.

The yoga studio is a large airy room with multiple windows, a fan, and an air purifier. You are welcome to wear a mask, it is optional. Yoga students are encouraged to be fully vaccinated. If in the future, indoor group gatherings are discouraged for health reasons, I may resume an all Zoom schedule. If you would not attend a Zoom class, be advised to buy a small package of classes as no refunds would be issued in that case.

Besides being together, a big plus for the studio is the rope wall, and I intend to make use of it in most classes! Each person puts up their own ropes as we set up for class, and takes them down at the end of class. We will help you learn how to do this.

Level 1 assumes no experience, Level 2 is experienced beginners. Mary will still offer alternatives and modifications of the asanas in all the morning classes for those that cannot do inversions or need an alternative asana for other reasons.

How to Use Zoom for Online Classes

Go to http://www.zoom.us to download the free version of zoom to your device (iPhone, iPad, laptop, etc.). Don't worry that it says it's only for 40 minutes, that's for hosting.

Buy classes at northwoodsyoga.com with the Zoom classes online payment form.

To request the classes you want, please email Mary at maryreilly36@gmail.com. Say which class you want to take and which count it is off of your package. For example, "I’d like Thursday at 5:30, my 3rd of 8." Mary will send you the link for that class. Every week the links are new.

The day of your class the link will take you to the waiting room and Mary will "let you in." Try to come to class ten or so minutes early.

Before the start time students will have a few minutes to set their camera angle and say hi to the others in the class. When class starts Mary will mute everyone. (You can mute yourself earlier if there is background noise in your space.) If you would prefer not to be seen, select the icon of the video camera and it will stop the video from showing you, but you will still see the class and Mary.

Classes are usually recorded (just the instruction, not the video of students unless they agree to be used for an example). The recordings are available to students in the class by request and can be viewed for up to 30 days after the class.

Classes are "mixed level," so you need to take the offering or version of the asana that matches your experience level. It’s fine to try something new, if you go slowly and stay aware of your capacity. If you need to ask a question, just unmute yourself.

Notes

Rather than go through an unwieldy registration process each time, you are asked to keep track of class usage yourself.

Mary recommends a sticky note on your computer as your "class card," checking off each class as you take it and renewing your card when they are used up. (If you want Mary to keep track for you contact her on email to set this up. It’s a different system so it has to be set up for future classes.)

If something comes up and you can’t attend class, don’t count it. Your classes are not counted by how many codes your request.

You and the members of your household may use the same class punch to take class. If you are taking classes in person, each person uses a punch off the card.

If you have lost or diminished income, due to COVID-19 or other circumstances, please let Mary know and she can make the classes happen for you.
