Welcome to Yoga with Devorah
Devorah Blum began to study yoga in 1975, becoming a dedicated student of Iyengar Yoga at an early age. She learned from senior Iyengar teachers and spent time in India where she studied with the Iyengar family. She also completed two “Relax & Renew” trainings with Judith Lasater where she learned to teach restorative yoga. Devorah’s depth of understanding of the postures along with her attentiveness, compassion, and sensitive guidance allow her to inspire and nurture each student.
Helpful Hints for New Students
What to Wear
It is important to wear comfortable clothes when practicing yoga. Although there is a variety of fancy yoga apparel to choose from on the market, you can also simply wear shorts and a t-shirt. You should have access to bare feet, so footless tights are more appropriate than ones with feet. It is nice to wear layers in case you get too warm or too cold. When you come to class, please refrain from perfume, cologne, strongly scented lotions, or anything that has a lingering scent.
What to Bring
There is nothing you need to bring to your first class except an empty stomach and an open mind. We have yoga mats and other supplies for you to borrow. If you become a regular student or yoga practitioner, we recommend buying your own mat for your personal practice. |
