What kind of yoga is this?
Some classes sit and others are super active, but it's all good yoga! Mostly flow-based, but there's a variety so check the class descriptions. Each instructor teaches to the class’s needs, their own strengths, the time of day, and more. Students of every level are welcome in all classes. Try something new! It's only an hour.
But I’ve never done yoga and/or
I’m not flexible.
No problem. You don’t have to be a body builder to workout at the gym; you don’t have to be a pretzel to do yoga.
Said another way: yoga will increase your flexibility, but you don’t have to be flexible to start yoga.
All yoga uses the same basic playbook of poses, so the more you do it, the more familiar you’ll be with what comes next. The studio doesn’t have mirrors, so you won’t be distracted by watching yourself. Instructions are given in English and there’s lots of demonstration. And at the end of the day, if you happen to move left when everyone else moves right… it’s really no big deal.
Do it because it feels good. Come back because it’s fun!
What should I wear/bring/ do/not do?
Wear clothes. (Do we really have to say that?!)
Arrive at least five minutes before class time so you can get situated. Classes start and end on time, so if you’re one or two minutes late you’ll encounter our Locked Door Policy.
Bring a water bottle and a yoga mat. We also have a limited supply of B Mats for rent.
Leave your shoes and cell phone outside the yoga room. Please silence your phone before you put it away. If you wear a smart watch, please ignore it/turn it off while in the yoga room.
Have a good time! This is supposed to be fun.
We always have the 30 Days for $30 offer for new customers; it’s not a limited-time-type deal. Purchase the pass whenever you want; the 30 day “clock” doesn’t start until you book your first class.
How does the 30/$30 offer work?
Will I be too sweaty to go back to work after class?
Probably not. The classroom is a comfortable 74-ish degrees. We also have complimentary toiletries in case you need to freshen up: dry shampoo, body spray, face mist, etc.
We also have a shower available; ask at the desk for more details.
Do you have a beginner’s yoga class?
Nope, because we truly mean it when we say that all levels are welcome in all classes. If you’d like to start slow, any class with “Stretch” or “Restore” in the title is a good choice. Classes with the word “Power” or “Flow” in the title move a bit faster.
Do instructors offer hands-on assistance during class?
Instructors may offer simple hands-on assistance to help you refine your pose. For example, touching your wrist to center your arm with your shoulder.
You are encouraged to speak up if you prefer no hands-on assistance — just tell your instructor.
And we want to meet you! Send an email to work [@] bendyoga.studio
If you’re an instructor, tell us about what you like to teach and how long you’ve been teaching.
If you’re the outgoing, smile-y type who talks to your seatmate on an airplane, you’d be perfect for our desk team.
