I have never done yoga or meditation. Can I come?

Yes. The Saturday and Wednesday classes are made for that. Jayani will ask what you have done before and adjust for you.

I have an injury, or I am pregnant.

Tell her in the form. Most things can be worked around, and she will say honestly if a class is not right for you yet.
