We offer Healthy Backs, Slow Burn, Vinyasa, Ashtanga and Yin yoga classes. We normally suggest brand new students start with Healthy Backs class, but if you're not sure just ask one of our teachers or stop by the desk for more class information. All of the yoga classes offered at Empower Yoga are multi-level classes. This means that you can join us for any one of our regularly scheduled classes, and are free to make modifications to suit your own individual needs and abilities.
Virtual classes are convenient and safe. You can take them anywhere. Please pre-register for your virtual class one hour prior to class start time. You will receive your “zoom class invite” by email at least a half hour before class start time. To participate in virtual classes you must have a zoom membership. These are free and easy to set up.

Yoga Etiquette and Helpful Hints
Please arrive 15 minutes prior to class. This will give you time to check in and find your space in the yoga room.
Yoga is practiced in bare feet. Please leave your shoes and your belongings outside the studio in our changing room cubbies. No shoes are allowed to enter the yoga space.
It is best to practice yoga on an empty stomach. It is best not to eat two hours prior to class.
Make sure you are fully hydrated. We recommend you bring a bottle of water along with you.
Empower Yoga is a cell phone free zone. Please don't bring your phone into the studio, and be mindful that texting can be distracting to those around you. If you do bring a cell phone into the studio please turn it completely off and leave it with your belongings.
Once you enter the yoga room, please refrain from talking to others and carrying on conversation. We practice Noble Silence while in this space. The yoga teacher will speak to the class as a whole, but conversations are not carried on during practice. Many students like to arrive early to the studio to meditate and find stillness before class begins.
Currently we are not renting out equipment but do sell yoga mats, towels and blocks in the studio if you don’t have your own.
Please avoid wearing cologne or perfume. Many people have allergies.
Please arrive to class on time and don't leave early.
Create your online account and purchase your new student special before arriving at the studio, and pre-register for your class.
