Why
do 'Yoga at Work' rather than at the Gym?
We come to your office to eliminate travel
time at a time that fits in with
your busy schedule. Unlike a Yoga class
at the gym, our class sizes are kept to
a minimum so you receive the instruction,
care and attention that you deserve!
You won't get lost in the crowd like at
the gym where it's not uncommon to have
60 people competing for the Instructor's
attention.
With Yoganic's careful instruction, participants
with varying levels of experience, flexibility
and fitness levels, pregnant women and
the injured can be catered for in a safe
and nurturing environment.
Unlike Yoga instructors at the gym, our
instructor's qualifications are recognised
by the International Yoga Teacher's Association
(IYTA), we love what we do and
live and breathe a Yogic lifestyle rather
than Yoga just being a part of our repertoire.
What
if I have to miss a class?
If you know that you will be off- site
for a few classes, just let Us know the
dates prior to the course start date and
then you only pay for the classes that
you plan to attend as long as you pay
the course fee upfront.
If you miss a class during your 8- week
course you may attend a class on an alternate
day during the current course period if
there is one available at your Company.
If there is only 1 class a week offered
at your Company, you may attend a public
class with Melissa. Please enquire about
days and times. If you're unable to attend
these classes then unfortunately you will
have to forgo the class. This is an incentive
to do your best to make it to all the
classes so that you get maximum value
for your investment.
Can
I attend classes on a casual basis?
Just like tennis, gymnastics, or dance
classes, the more you practise Yoga, the
more progress you will make. To ensure
that you don't fall too far behind and
you get maximum value for your investment,
we encourage participants to sign- up
for an 8- week course. Over 8- weeks you
will learn a sequence and each week new
postures will be introduced building upon
those explored in the previous week.
What
if I'm a Beginner?
We pride ourselves in giving as much individual
attention to all our participants,
particularly Beginners. Your Instructor
will offer modifications of the Yoga postures
and is available before and after the
class to answer any questions you may
have regarding any of the postures you
have learnt. By request, we can organise
a Beginner's course at your Company.
What
if I'm not flexible?
Then Yoga is just the thing for you! Many
people think that they need to be flexible
to do Yoga, but that's like thinking that
you need to be able to swim to take swimming
lessons. You will find that your flexibility
will improve over time with practice and
patience.
Do
I need my own Yoga mat?
For hygienic reasons, we recommend you
bring your own Yoga mat. If you're
doing a Taster Class and don't want to
invest in a mat just yet, bring a towel.
We have Yoga mats with 100% cotton mat
bags available for sale for only $35 (choice
of colours available). Please click
here to order. We don't recommend
camping mats (which are often too thick
and short) or towels in the long term
as they're too slippery.
What
can I do if my mat is slippery or dirty?
If your mat is slippery or dirty, try
putting in your washing machine on a gentle
cycle and then hanging it out to dry on
the line.
Is
it OK to do Yoga during Pregnancy?
If you have prior Yoga experience, we
encourage Yoga during all stages of your
Pregnancy after seeking your Doctor's
approval. If you're new to Yoga, have
a history of miscarriages or undergoing
IVF treatment, General Yoga isn't recommended
in your first trimester. Melissa has extensive
experience in Prenatal Yoga and offers
Private Sessions
and Public Classes.
We recommend a Private Session prior to
commencing a general class so that Melissa
can teach you the modifications and discuss
any precautions.
How
do I pay my Yoga course fees?
Simply deposit your course fees into the
following bank account prior to your first
class:
Account Name: Yoganic
BSB: 082061
Account Number: 559784627

To pay by credit card, please

transactions will incur a transaction

Can
I receive a Private Health Insurance rebate
for Yoga classes?
Many Private Health funds now cover 'Hatha
Yoga' classes. Please ask us for a receipt
to give to your Insurance Provider.
Do
you teach any Public Classes?
Yes, Melissa teaches various styles to
various age groups at Yoga studios in
the Northern & Eastern suburbs of
Sydney.
