Covid-19 safety procedures

OUR CLASSES

In May 2021, if government guidance stays as it is now, we will reopen our physical studio space at the Arlington Baths. This page contains information to keep you safe in the physical studio, so you know what to do if you want to come to one of our classes, and what to expect.

ONLINE Classes

We fully appreciate that coming to our studio may not be possible or ideal for you right now, we know the latest guidelines are forecast to be in place for 6 months and it is essential we all take care of ourselves during these times. For you, we have a range of online classes. Check our timetable here: https://yogamovesglasgow.co.uk/timetable/

LIVE Classes

Live classes are limited to 8 students. You must book your class in advance through our electronic system: https://www.momoyoga.com/yoga-moves-glasgow/. Our live class cancellation policy is 2 hours for a full class credit.

In order to participate we ask you to:
* Bring your own mat and any equipment you need for your practice (blocks, blankets, belts …)
* Arrive ready for class, with the appropriate clothes, and 10 minutes before your class (but not earlier).
* Adhere to all our safety procedures and those of the Arlington Baths, which you can read here.

Please Note: We will share your contact details with the Arlington for the purposes of Track and Trace.

Class Information and safety requirements

We will continue to be vigilant and take any further steps we need to keep you safe. As you know, guidance can change very quickly in this situation. We constantly check in with the Arlington Baths and our regulating bodies about better ways to operate to keep you safe and improve your experience in class. Should we find any enhancements to our current processes, rest assured we will implement them. We always welcome feedback.

We will check with you to make sure you are happy and comfortable with this, and can move your practice space to a more appropriate place in the room, including when we need to accommodate students who wish hands on adjustments when we make these.
