Frequently Asked Questions

I am a runner. Would Yoga help my performance?

Yes. Most sports training and activity builds stamina and strength. Yoga practice will work on strength but also flexibility, mobility, breathing and mental focus. Elma is experienced in working across a number of sports and the yoga class can help improve performance and also prevent injury occurring.

I have never done Yoga before. Will I be able to keep up?

Elma’s yoga practice allows each person to reach their own level of ability. You take the practice as far as you are comfortable and progress at your own rate.

Are all the classes mixed?

Most classes are mixed but Tuesday 7pm is a ‘Women Only’ class and 8.30pm Tuesday is a ‘Men Only’ class.

Do I need my own yoga mat or special clothes?

No. Elma provides mats and accessories for the yoga classes. For practice at home and hygiene it is worth getting your own mat eventually. Wear

comfortable loose clothing and you will be removing your shoes during the class.

Do I need to pay for a full term as I may miss some classes?

No. You only pay for the classes you attend. It is €8 per night, paid as you arrive.
