Bend Basics
A few simple things to know before you practice with us.
Whether you are new to The Bend, trying a new class style, or just getting familiar with our space, these basics will help you feel prepared, comfortable, and supported.
1
How We Practice
Practice is personal. Some days you may need strength and movement. Other days you may need quiet, support, or rest. All of that belongs here.
2
What to Bring
Comfortable clothing, water, a mat if you have one, and layers for slower classes.
3
Props Are Welcome
Blocks, straps, bolsters, blankets, chairs, and the wall are part of the practice — not a sign that you are doing less.
4
Studio Courtesies
Arrive a few minutes early, silence your phone, watch, and electronic devices. Let your teacher know about injuries or concerns, and return props neatly after class.
5
Listen to Your Body
You can rest, modify, pause, or choose a different option at any time. Yoga is not a performance.
