“Vanessa Flow Yoga studio is committed to help modern people discover freedom & happiness through movement & wellbeing classes that are always welcoming & encouraging”
Our studio continues to welcome the most beautiful people. Kind, friendly & completely normal people who all have one thing in common…the desire to feel happier & healthier within themselves.
We are doing that & we are making a difference. Complete strangers leave with a new acquaintance, someone they can smile at & feel acknowledged by within a class or maybe across the isle whilst doing your weekly food shop.
Yoga literally means union & for us all to be on the same page & to have equal respect for one another there needs to be specific “house rules” in place.
Vanessa Flow Yoga House Rules
(Incorporating the Yamas & Niyamas)
The Yamas (Attitudes towards the world) & Niyamas (Attitudes toward self) are part of the eight limbs of Yoga.
An ancient manual/ map which guides you towards discovering inner & outer peace. We are drawing from Patanjalis Yoga sutras to help create our house rules & personal code here at "Vanessa Flow Yoga Studio". Please take a few moments to become familiar with them:
Yamas
Ahimsa(Non-harming)
Always be kind, friendly & welcoming to other community members.
Asteya (Non-stealing)
Stealing of time. 2 Hour Cancellation policy! A last minute cancellation or no show presents a missed opportunity for other community members who may have wanted to sign up for class. Please be courteous to other members;
Enter with & leave with your own belongings, don't take what isn't yours.
Aparigraha (Non-Greed)
We make it clear when booking a class, buying a class pass or membership of the policies in place. You have made a commitment to you & our studio. Honour our simple house rules & don’t take it for granted or ask for more than is required of us as a business.
Buddy Passes are to be used for friends who have expressed their interest to join the studio & would like to experience one of our classes. They are not to be used excessively for other reasons.
Niyamas
Saucha (Cleanliness)
We promise to keep the studio a clean & safe environment;
Please make sure to take off shoes in the reception areas & only have bare feet/ yoga socks in the studio;
All studio mats used are to be cleaned before putting it back in its rightful place. If you are unsure please ask the teacher our another community member.
Tapas (Discipline)
Be on time, be early! We make the studio available 15mins prior to Yoga classes & 10 mins before barre or pilates for you to enter & arrive calmly;
Do not disturb & steal others peace by showing up late;
You can view our full cancellation policy when booking, on your confirmation email & herehttps://www.vanessaflowyoga.co.uk/class-cancellation-policy
Cancellation Policy:
We understand that plans change and you may need to cancel a class. This is no problem at all and all we ask for 2 HOURS minimum notice period should you need to do this.
A cancellation is considered late when a class is cancelled less than 2 hours before the class time. A no-show is when a client misses a class without cancelling.
In the event of this happening more than 2 times within a one month period, a late cancellation fee/ no show fee will be automatically deducted from your card on file.
We hope you understand our belief in having a clear, simple to understand cancellation policy to help avoid confusion and form clear boundaries.
We are committed to adapting & updating our rules regularly, however please make sure you are aware of the house rules above & apply them to your practice. Let them become a habit.
We will always be understanding. Being kind & welcoming are two of our core values at our studio.
Thank-you for being here & welcome to our community.
