CLASS FAQ!
What to Wear to Class? First of all, I recommend comfy clothes: long skirts are fine, as long as you don't mind occasionally hiking them up so your knees are visible, otherwise I recommend yoga pants or sweatpants. For tops, a work-out top, choli, tank top, etc is good - big baggy t-shirts are not good. You're welcome to adorn your hips with some sort of hipscarf, but it's not a must.

Do I have do buy anything? No. For later sessions, we'll look at working with veils and zills, but it's not necessary or required for foundation classes. I will have CDs, DVDs, and other goodies available at class for your shopping pleasure though!

Should I bring anything? I recommend a bottle of water. If you sweat a lot normally, a small towel may help you out. Some people like to write down notes during/after class.
