  • We recommend Yoga Fundamentals every Wednesday 12:30-1:30pm. This class will cover basics of the postures and ease you into your new favorite practice.

  • First-time information can be found here

  • Signing-up in advance will guarantee your spot in class as many classes have waitlists.

  • All students may cancel their class registration anytime up to 3 hours before class is scheduled to begin without penalty. For those canceling within the 3-hour window (or for no-shows), one class will be deducted from your package. Unlimited AutoPay Members will be charged a $5 late fee.

  • We highly recommend arriving to class at least 5 minutes before class. We cannot guarantee late entry to class. If you are not on time to class, your spot may be offered to someone waitlisted for class. If you arrive to the studio after a scheduled class time and the door is locked, our cancellation policy applies.

  • Yoga Off East classes are typically taught in a room 70-75 degrees. We are NOT a hot yoga studio. In our new location at American Tobacco Campus, we installed infrared heaters. Classes that have "infrared" or “warm” in the name or description will be heated 80-85 degrees.

  • Wear comfortable clothing that allows your body to move freely. Please avoid all perfume and strongly scented fragrances. Bring water and a mat. Manduka ProLite Mats are available for your use in studio classes as needed.

Studio Etiquette

Be on time
The studio opens 15 minutes before scheduled classes. Plan to arrive at least 10 minutes before your class as our door locks at class time. Latecomers are not guaranteed entrance. With local events happening at ATC regularly, give yourself a few extra minutes to arrive.

Hydration
Bring your own water bottle from home, and feel free to refill it at the studio..

Pack Lightly
We provide lockable and open cubbies to store your personal items, and we recommend you leave as much as you can at home! Like the yoga quote, “Travel light, live light, spread the light, be the light.”

Get Grounded
Bare feet only in the practice area. Silence your electronic devices and leave your worries at the door.

Sign up in Advance
Sign-up in advance via the Walla app to ensure everyone gets in the door and ready to roll out their mats as smoothly as possible.

Studio Code of Conduct

At Yoga Off East, we are committed to providing a warm, welcoming, and inclusive environment for all who walk through our doors. Our Code of Conduct reflects both our community values and the foundational principles of yoga. We ask all clients, teachers, and staff to uphold this shared standard so that every person feels safe, respected, and supported.

Core Principles

Our Code is grounded in the ethical foundations of yoga, especially:

• Ahimsa (Non-Harming): We commit to kindness and respect in all interactions.
• Asteya (Non-Stealing): We honor others’ time, space, energy, and boundaries.
• Saucha (Purity/Care): We care for our shared space and maintain personal hygiene and appropriate conduct to foster a healthy, clean environment.

Community Expectations

To maintain a positive studio environment, we ask everyone to:

• Respect personal space and boundaries. Always ask for consent before engaging in physical contact, including hugs, adjustments, or close greetings.
• Be mindful of verbal and non-verbal interactions. Over-familiarity, unsolicited advice, or excessive involvement in others' practice or personal space can feel intrusive.
• Honor the quiet and reflective nature of the studio. Please keep noise levels low and refrain from disruptive behavior before, during, or after class.
• Maintain personal hygiene. Arrive clean, wear fresh clothing, and avoid heavy fragrances out of consideration for others.
• Support the autonomy of others. Let each student have their own experience— avoid pressuring others to engage socially, attend certain classes, or adopt specific beliefs or practices.

When Boundaries Are Crossed

We believe in clear communication, compassion, and accountability. In the unexpected event that someone’s behavior makes others uncomfortable or violates this Code:


• Our team may have a respectful but direct contact/conversation with the individual.
• Depending on the situation, we may issue a warning, suggest behavioral changes, or in some cases, ask a client to take a break from attending the studio.
• In repeated or serious instances, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate a client’s access to the studio for the well-being of the community.

Commitment to Safety and Belonging

We welcome people of all backgrounds, body types, identities, and experience levels. We want every student to feel safe to be themselves and empowered to explore their practice. This Code of Conduct is a living document—one that grows as our community grows. Thank you for helping us co-create a space where everyone can breathe, move, and connect with authenticity and care.
