Question 1

What do I need to bring with me to class?

Accepted Answer

Yourself 😀 in comfortable clothing you can move in and a water bottle. All equipment is provided though if you like to use your own mat please bring it along.

Question 2

Can I pay for a single class or is it a block booking only?

Accepted Answer

You can pay for a single class option or book at block booking of 6 for a slightly cheaper rate.
Pregnancy is a 6 week course and is the only one that is booked in a block only.

Question 3

How do I book?

Accepted Answer

All The Yoga Lady bookings are taken through the studio website
www.creative-calm.com
Do not hesitate to get in touch if you can't see what you are looking for as I am always adding new sessions, workshops and treatment slots to my timetable.

Question 4

If I sign up for a block booking and can't make a class can I get a refund?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately, I do not offer refunds on class bookings. As an independent Yoga Teacher working in small studio spaces ( I like to keep the classes small to allow confidence and community to build ) it would not be feasible for me to manage with refunds. However, if you have a course booked and cannot attend you can 'gift' your space to someone else to come and give class a try if you wish. just let me know this is your plan. If I have spaces that week on another class  that is suitable for you I will try and move you whenever this is feasible. Though this cannot be guaranteed.

Question 5

I am not flexible at all, is Yoga for me?

Accepted Answer

You do NOT need to be flexible to start yoga! Yes I said it, you do NOT need to be flexible. Yoga is so much more than simply stretching, and whilst you will improve your flexibility and build strength by practicing yoga this is an aside from all the other wonderful health and well being benefits yoga brings to your life.

Question 6

Am I too old for Yoga?

Accepted Answer

No you're not.😀

Question 7

Are your adult classes just for women?

Accepted Answer

All my classes are mixed gender unless I state otherwise. ( pregnancy the only exception.) 
All genders welcome in the space.

The studio offers a men only class on wednesdays with Paul. Should this be what you are looking for

Question 8

Do you practice yoga every day?

Accepted Answer

Every morning expect Sundays when I try and have a day of rest.

Question 9

Where is best to Park for the studio?

Accepted Answer

We are opposite Aldi on Bury new road.

I recommend parking by St Marys Park on St Marys Road as there is always sufficient spaces here and you can safely cross and walk up to the studio.

Question 10

Can you do the splits?

Accepted Answer

No. And you don't need to be able to do the splits to benefit from Yoga.

Question 11

What stage in Pregnancy can I start pregnancy Yoga?

Accepted Answer

Suitable for 12 weeks gestation to birth ( unless you are already a regular Yoga practitioner in which case you can carry on with your usual exercise )

Question 12

I am near the end of my pregnancy and want to continue with the course but what happens if I give birth, can I get a refund?

Accepted Answer

If you sign up to pregnancy in your third trimester and give birth I will credit you your remaining classes to Baby & Postnatal Yoga. You can join me when you are ready just message me to confirm your space.

Question 13

How soon after giving birth can I join Baby and Postnatal Yoga?

Accepted Answer

Honestly there is no set stage you can start baby yoga, it is when you feel ready. However I always advise ladies to rest up as much as possible and enjoy those first few precious weeks nesting with your new arrival if you can. 6 weeks onwards tends to be the average but of course I wouldn't turn you away if you wanted to start sooner. Just go easy and look after yourself.

Question 14

I have twins, help 😀

Accepted Answer

I only charge for one baby ( never multiples ) So twins / triplets etc all welcome in the space. 😀

Question 17

What does my child need to bring?

Accepted Answer

Children need to bring with them suitable clothing, we will be outside in all weathers so waterproofs and wellies are a must.

Sun cream and sun hat for the august club ( fingers crossed )

Question 18

Do you accept childcare vouchers?

Accepted Answer

At present we don't BUT we are working on it with an intention to take these for our 2025 clubs

Question 19

Do you offer a sibling discount?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately this isn't something we can offer at present. we are a small club and I am keen to keep the numbers this way to ensure the high quality and care we offer the children continues.
Offering a discount isnt something I can do for the time being.

Question 20

What is your cancellation policy?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately I cannot offer refunds. We are a small business and it wouldn't be viable to run this way. 
Should you need to change your mini yogis day and there is availability I will always do my best to accommodate it when possible.

Question 21

Does the Kids Club accept SEN Children?

Accepted Answer

Whilst we strive to be fully accessible for all we are unable to accommodate SEN requirements. If your child has one to one care at school or a EHCP plan unfortunately we cannot accept them at The Yoga Kids Club.
We are working on offering a SEN specialist version of the kid club
