Bernal Yoga is located at 908 Cortland Ave, at Folsom. We highly recommend signing up for classes in advance.  You can do that by going to Bernal Yoga’s Schedule online, by using the MINDBODY app. or contacting the studio (calling, texting or emailing the studio 24 hours in advance). For any class that sells out, priority attendance is given to those with advance reservations. 

Before You Arrive

• We recommend that you arrive 10-15 minutes before each class in order to get signed in and settled into the practice space-especially if it’s your first visit!
• Wear comfortable, non-restrictive clothes you can move easily in.
• Bring a water bottle if you think you’ll need it.
• Bring your own yoga (not exercise) mat if you have one; we also have studio mats available as well.
• If you sweat easily, you may want to bring a hand towel for faster-paced classes.

At the Studio

• Our front desk staff and/or an instructor is on hand at the beginning of each class to greet you or to answer any questions.
• Sign in at the front desk before each class. 
• If you’re a drop-in student you can purchase a pass or pay for a drop in class. We accept cash, checks, and credit cards.
• Please talk to the instructor before the start of the class if you have any injuries or if you are brand new to yoga or pilates.
• Cell phones should be turned off before entering the studio. Please do not use your phone in the practice space.
• Please remove your shoes before entering the practice space and leave them in the lobby; there is also space for you to hang your coat and store your belongings.
• We have 2 bathrooms that are located near to the lobby.  
• Props (such as blocks, straps, blankets and bolsters) are available for your use.
• Most classes at Bernal Yoga take place with mats in rows facing the back wall; however, in some classes, students will be in a circle with the back of each mat against a wall. Note how other students are positioning their mat, and ask the instructor if you have questions.
• Please be flexible when it comes to mat position and make space for others if needed.

During and After Class

• Listen to your body, and rest when you need to.
• Let your instructor know if you are confused, experiencing pain, or having any other trouble.
• If you are going to be more than 10 minutes late to a class, it’s best to come to another class; if you arrive within the first 10 minutes of class, please try to enter, gather props, and set up your space as quietly and unobtrusively as you can.
• If you need to leave early, please let your instructor know before the class has started.
• After class, please put away your props neatly, referring to the picture on the wall to see how blankets, blocks, and bolsters etc. should be stored.
