Each class is adaptive and taught to the audience present with a lot of space for personal inquiry and by default trauma and neurodivergence informed. Choice is presented with each pose and sequence to allow participants the options to dial it up or tone it down depending on what is being offered. We do not offer hands on assists unless asked so teachers stay mostly on their mat and typically do not walk around the room.
Some classes with Aline are video and audio recorded. Only the teacher is visible however if you are near the camera your likeness or voice maybe be recorded. Please see our Terms & Conditions on recorded classes.

Please bring your own yoga mat, we do have a few loaners if you forget one but they are not guaranteed to always be available.
