When to arrive: Class begins at 7:00 PM. We recommend arriving 10-15 minutes prior to get settled.
What to bring: You'll need a yoga mat and water bottle. If you do not have a yoga mat, they're free to use on your first visit and a $5 rental fee after that. Water is available for sale for $3 should you need to purchase one. Humble Haven has cubbies or lockers to store your belongings during class. We kindly ask that cell phones, shoes, and other personal belongings be stored outside of the yoga room during class.
What to wear: Wear clothing that you are comfortable moving around in. We do not recommend socks as they can make the yoga mat slippery during movement.
