What You Should Do To Prepare
To attend a Zoom Workshop, you’ll want to do the following in advance:
1) Sign up for a free Zoom account, and register for the workshop. Do this now, so that you’re not scrambling right before class. We will lock the class after 10 minutes.
2) Find a quiet space with few distractions. Lay down a soft mat or stack a few blankets on top of each other. Have a spare blanket and some pillows handy. Put the kids to sleep (or distract them if you’re in a different time zone). Put the fur-babies in a different room (they will think its play time). Optional: essential oils, candles, soft music, etc.
3) Wear loose, breathable clothing you can move around in. Wash your hands and feet.
4) A few minutes before class time, follow the link from the registration email to join the meeting. You’ll be taken to the waiting room.
5) Once class time starts, we will admit you from the waiting room to the classroom. Please feel free to sign in 5 or 10 minutes to say hi and ask questions! You’ll enter with your video and audio on, but once class has started we’ll mute you so there aren’t any distractions. You are welcome to have your video on or off as you like, but just know, if we can see you, we can teach to you! We will have a moderator that can take questions during the event, so you can write them in the chat box and we’ll respond directly to the whole class.
Please don’t hesitate to contact us with questions, suggestions, or feedback. To schedule a private stretch, bodywork, meditation, or couples instructional session, make your appointment here.
