About the Venues: Aberdour Classes take place at the Institute/Community Leisure Centre on Shore Road. Parking is very limited at the Institute, but nearby street parking and at the Train Station is available. Burntisland Class is at the Space Upstairs, whose entrance is beside Cafe Verde. Best to park in the nearby free Fife Council lot next the Links. Both venues are well-heated in winter and have toilets available.

Arriving: Best to arrive 5-10minutes before class to give yourself time to settle. Late arrivals, feel free to join in quietly. Early arrivals, please be considerate that I also need time to settle and prepare for class.

Music: Music is played during class. It is usually relaxation instrumental tracks, kirtan or mantra songs, or feel good/positive message songs.

Mat Arrangement: I teach from my mat at one end of the room with two long rows of students facing one another. Cards with positive messages indicate mat placement to give everyone as much space as possible. I arrange mats this because I believe we practice in community and you learn as much from seeing your fellow students as looking towards me. Students tend to have ‘preferred’ mat placement, but these are NOT set in stone and it is first come first serve. If, however, you have special requirements due to hearing or sight needs, places at the front can be reserved for you. Please get in touch with me if this is the case.
