Getting back to the studio will come with a few changes. This doesn't mean this is forever but it keeps us healthy and practicing together again. 

I am making changes to the studio etiquette. 

New etiquette will be on the page that says COVID and the studio etiquette page will guide you to that page for COVID etiquette. Yep, 2 pages of etiquette. 

Please observe. 

For everyone's health I will not make exceptions of any kind. 

Read this side first - I want to first THANK everyone who donated money to the studio. Donation options are on the payment portion of the website (and also on Facebook there is a fundraiser up until June 10).

Memberships and students taking classes dropped significantly. 

Inhale Yoga's 5 year anniversary is June 13, 2020. I will not let a virus take away everything I worked so hard for. 

This year there will be no party. This year we celebrate just being able to get together in person again. It's those little things that make us so grateful. 

What did you do with my donation?

A portion of it to the rent for one month and a high-end air purifier for the studio. 

As you know ALL businesses took a HUGE hit shutting down and now slowly re-opening up to minimal. This will take businesses awhile to get back on their feet again. Please be patient as I go thru these changes with the world as a business person.

I am just as nervous as you are coming to the studio and re-opening.

Please wear a mask or face covering to the studio. No mask - no enter. Wait at least 6 feet behind each other when entering. This will give me a chance to take your temperature and log it and check you in. ONLY AFTER I DO THIS CAN YOU COME ALL THE WAY INTO THE STUDIO. Things might change and I might find a better way of doing it, but at the beginning phase, I'm trying many different things out. 

You WILL have a temperature check when you come in (NO EXCEPTIONS).  If you are NOT feeling well that day please practice another day. 

Practice social distancing. The floor has been marked with X's for you to place your mat. Everyone is 6 feet apart with a total of 9 students and one teacher. My mat will not be in it's normal place due to the floor layout. My laptop will be set up for those taking class live. These classes are NOT recorded, please be understanding if the the camera is angled catching you. This gives those practicing at home, as close to the same experience as you are having in person. If you have concerns about livestream maybe practicing right now isn't the best option for you.

Livestream will be incorporated into the studio, we have students from other states practicing with us. Audio will also be part, I always will tell you in person when I'm about to hit the record button. 

PHASE 2 does allow us to have folks back at 70%. At this point, I have no clue how many are coming back. I will stay at 10 including me until I feel we are comfortable and the Governor hasn't changed any instructions. This can last a few weeks, please try to be understanding. Keep reading......

Bring your own mat & supplies. NO LOANER mats are available at this time.  Inhale Yoga Students who have been with me, if you do not have a mat I will GIVE you a new mat. Contact me PRIOR so I can make sure I have one for you or you will have to purchase your own.

I have some fabric sanitizer so we can use bolsters and blocks until I run out or until I am able to get more sanitizing product. All blankets that I had to give away found homes. I still have a handful of mats left. (do not assume when you come to class that I will have one to give you, these are on a first come first serve basis.) Contact me!

Clean your mats at home. I am extremely limited on cleaning supplies. 

Using the bathroom facilities? 

- WASH your hands with soap & water when you are done:

- Flush the toilet with your hand! (using your foot breaks the handle):

- Open the door with the same single paper towel that you dried your hands with:

- Prop the door open with your foot and throw the towel away in the trash under the sink.

As you know, paper towels are a hot commodity right now, I AM EXTREMELY limited on them. Don't use an excessive amount  or you'll be air drying your hands if I run out and everyone else will be too. Be kind with your choices. MINDFULNESS.

There will be no signing in, you MUST register for classes ahead of time. No drop-in's at this time since class count is kept to 9 students and one teacher. 

I will check you in as you get your temperature check.

I (Ruth) do have allergies, I will cough and possibly sneeze, I will have hand sanitizer/tissues by me for me to use when I do cough/sneeze. If you are bothered by my allergies, please practice at another time. I am doing everything within my power to minimalize my allergic reactions. 

If you are a regular student of Inhale Yoga LLC and you are having a financial difficulty (some have lost their jobs or had hours cut) PLEASE contact me! I will GIVE you a month free.

The schedule can and will possibly change from week to week to give everyone a chance to come back to the studio. 

I'm taking it a week at a time for us. 

 Reiki: I am taking the requests as it comes. If you are interested in energy work contact me. 

Chair Classes:

I will try out chair for a few weeks, if my chair students are not comfortable coming out I will post pone this class and replace it with another. Chair students please contact me and let me know if you are interested in classes. Some class times and days will change to accommodate everyone. Chair classes are specialty classes and will not have livestream or audio at this point. 

Inhale Yoga LLC has always had a no refund policy.
