  • Absolutely not!

    Our studio is beginner-friendly and welcomes all levels. No experience, strength, or flexibility is needed. Our regular schedule offers warm and hot classes in a variety of styles. Some specialty classes and workshops are offered at room temperature; check the individual event listing for its heat level. Yoga is truly for everyBODY.

  • We kindly ask that you arrive 10 - 15 minutes before your class begins. This gives you time to check in, set up your space, and settle in without rushing. For the safety, comfort, and privacy of everyone in the room, our doors lock promptly at the start time and late entry is not permitted. Arriving early also allows your instructor to greet you, answer any questions, and support you with modifications if needed.

  • Yes. Please pre-register through our live schedule or app before class. You can book up to 30 days in advance. We may be able to accommodate walk-ins when space allows, but signing up at the studio takes extra time and a spot is not guaranteed. For your first visit, please register ahead and arrive 15–20 minutes early.

  • Take a look at our Class Descriptions page to get a feel for each style and see what resonates with you. Not sure where to start? Our instructors are always happy to help you find the best fit based on your experience, goals, and preferred class vibe - whether it’s slow and gentle or hot and energizing.

  • If you have any injuries, health concerns, or limitations, please let your instructor know before class - especially during your first visit or when anything changes. We’re here to support you and can offer modifications to help you move safely and confidently. We also recommend checking in with your healthcare provider beforehand.

  • Bring a water bottle, your yoga mat, and a sweat towel if you're attending a warm or hot class. While we do have studio mats available to rent, we highly recommend bringing your own for comfort and consistency.

    We provide everything else you might need.. blocks, bolsters, blankets, straps, and other supportive props are all available in the studio to enhance your practice.

  • Yes! We regularly offer sound baths, breathwork, moon ceremonies, 108 Sun Salutations, and more. Check our Specialty Classes page or follow us on social media to stay updated.

  • It's best not to eat a heavy meal 2–3 hours before class. A light snack like a banana or smoothie is okay - especially before hot classes.

  • Comfort is key! Wear clothing you can move freely in, like leggings, shorts, or breathable athletic wear. For our regular warm and hot classes, we recommend lightweight, sweat-wicking fabrics. If you’re attending a specialty class or workshop listed as room temperature, cozy layers like a long sleeve or light sweatshirt can be helpful. Always bring a water bottle, and feel free to bring a small towel for heated classes. Most importantly, wear what makes you feel good!

  • We do not have showers. Our studio has 2 spacious washrooms which can be used as a change room!

  • For regular classes, there is no monetary late-cancellation or no-show fee. Please cancel as soon as possible, ideally at least one hour before class.

    If you cancel, including a late cancellation, your class credit is returned. If you paid directly for a drop-in booking, the amount is returned to your fitDEGREE account balance.

    If you don’t attend and don’t cancel, the class credit is used.

    Specialty classes and workshops follow the cancellation and refund terms shown on their individual event listings.

  • Our adult classes are generally for ages 16+, but we do welcome younger teens accompanied by a parent or guardian.

    Reach out if you’re unsure which class is best suited for younger students.

  • Yes, we do! Whether you'd like to bring your team to our studio or have us come to you, we offer corporate wellness classes designed to support connection, movement, and mental well-being in the workplace.

  • Some classes include music, chanting ("Om" or "Shanti"), or meditations.. always optional.

    Participation is based on your comfort.

  • Ideally, 2 to 3 classes per week will help you experience the full physical and mental benefits of yoga. But remember.. there is no “perfect” schedule.

    Even once a week consistently is a powerful way to stay connected to your practice!
