frequently asked questions
Do We ask or require vaccination status?
No. Asking about your medical history or denying services because of your medical status is against the law, no matter how local government officials may overstep their boundaries. We believe your medical history is your own, and we will never ask or intrude on your right to privacy.
Do We require face coverings or masks?
No. Wearing face coverings or masks while doing deep breathing techniques or physical activity can be problematic and counter-productive to yoga, meditation, and health processes. Also, this is your personal choice, and we do not impede personal preference at our studio.
However, If you are sick or displaying any coughing, sneezing, or runny nose symptoms, please refrain from practicing at the studio. You will be asked to leave for fellow yogis' health, safety, and comfortability.
Additionally, we have disposable masks at the studio if you'd like to wear them!
Do We Provide hardship Discounts for yoga or karma Yoga?
Sure! Tell us about your situation and what kind of membership you would like to have and we can tell you about the various discounts we have for hardships.
Are you interested in an exchange of work for unlimited yoga? We have weekly cleaning duties a few hours a week that can be exchanged for monthly yoga. Inquire and send us an email at AndYogaStudios@gmail.com
What classes are for beginners?
While our Village Vinyasa I, Aerial Basics and Flow and Restore classes are all suited for the emerging yogi in you, all classes are suitable to attend. With the exception of Aerial Yoga I-II which needs a prerequisite of at least 4 Aerial Basics classes to participate.
As a semi-private yoga studio we cater to small class sizes. The instructor will always be able to see you and provide modifications and adjustments for more challenging poses. Unlike other studios you get specialized attention here and won't get lost in a sea of yogis. Let the instructor know you are new to the yoga practice and we'll take it from there!
Do We have hot yoga?
No, we have regular room temperature yoga classes.
what is aerial?
Aerial yoga uses a hammock or yoga swing to allow students to perform postures that they may not ordinarily be able to attempt on the yoga mat. It is often also referred to as AntiGravity® yoga. It combines traditional yoga with moves inspired by pilates, dance, and acrobatics.
Where or how do I book classes?
You can book and or schedule to attend classes directly via our website here or the MINDBODY app. We recommend always using our website as the Mindbody App is not our property service and may have glitches or be incorrect. Use the Mindbody service at your own risk.
There were unexpected charges on my account?
Unfortunately, we charge for Late Cancellations and Absent No/Shows.
Late Cancelation $10
Absent/No Show $25
Prices Are Subject To Change
The fees may not show up on your account on the same day of the cancellation. We'd rather not charge fees but unfortunately, we're an intimate studio that must cater to the best class availability. Please early cancel out of class (12hrs before class start time) and only sign up when you are sure you can attend.
"Abhaya"
A Sanskrit word meaning fearlessness as a spiritual virtue, aspiring to transcend worldly desires, hindrances, or obstacles by harnessing strength. Basically, if you sign up, attend the class and be on time. Be mindful of our cancellation policies and you'll never see charges on your account. Our policies are strict and it's every student's responsibility to read them before participating at our studio. See them all on our guidelines/cancellation page.

Do we have showers?
Unfortunately we don't have showers, please arrive with your body and clothes clean. We sometimes get comfy with our other yogis, so cleanliness and non odors are a must! Please arrive early or stay later to use our bathroom facilitates. Keep in mind we are in a small space and using the bathroom during class time is disruptive. The studio facilities are available 10-15 minutes before and after class start time.
DO WE HAVE Classes for children?
We don't have classes for children at this time, but we may have them in the future. Currently our studio is a yoga sanctuary for adults only. Register and provide your email, when we do offer children's classes you'll be the first to know!
What do I get with Membership?
Access to all yoga or aerial classes: Depending on your autopay membership type, you will have access to a set number of set or unlimited classes every monthly billing cycle. Schedule your classes weekly for your yoga therapy based on a monthly self-commitment. You will see results over time. There are no rollovers of membership classes or make-up classes. In addition, you'll receive membership discounts on workshops and merchandise as posted.
Are there any rollovers of membership credits?
No, membership levels do not have rollovers. We recommend that you schedule the classes allotted with your membership level every month. Every monthly billing cycle, you will receive the respective number of classes with that particular membership level to book and attend classes. As a courtesy, we may add a class credit solely at our discretion.
What Will I Pay?
