As a first step, you should talk to your healthcare team about your condition as it relates to practicing yoga. Your team can provide you with any movement restrictions or cautions.

While in class, you should feel very free to modify the practice so that you feel comfortable in both your body and your mind. This might mean doing something different, doing less, or skipping a section of the practice altogether.

Yoga instructors are not qualified healthcare providers and cannot diagnose or treat any condition. Therefore, instructors’ cues are always suggestions. You know your body and your situation best. Please do what is right for you.

After registering for a class, you'll receive an email with the props needed. A yoga mat is always recommended for safety and comfort.

Here are some common props and household alternatives:

• Yoga block → Thick book or chair

• Yoga strap → Belt, robe tie, or towel

• Blanket → Towel

• Bolster → Pillows or rolled-up towels

• Journal & pen

Props can be found online or in stores. For eco-friendly, affordable options, check out Yogamatters.

Yoga is not a form of qualified healthcare and does not diagnose, treat, or cure any medical condition.

Similarly, psychologically-sensitive and trauma-sensitive yoga are not substitutes for qualified mental healthcare. These terms simply mean that the practices are attuned in order to be more accessible for those who have experienced trauma.

We encourage all students to consult their healthcare providers before practicing and to modify movements and other practices as needed.

At Ever Onward Collective, we value science and recognize the essential role of Western healthcare. As yoga teachers, we work within our scope of practice, which is presenting general yoga teachings with the option to take what is useful and modify or leave what is not. Our hope is that yoga serves as a supportive complement to a well-rounded healthcare plan.

We’d be happy to help! Please email us at hello@onward.community. We can either correspond via email about your needs or schedule a short Zoom session to discuss what you’re looking for and what class might work best for you.

Yes and no. We don’t record live classes to protect students’ privacy and to keep the experience interactive. Since we focus on engagement during class, it’s harder to fully demo the sequence in real time as we would for a recorded session.

However, we know schedules can be tricky, so we provide a separate, pre-recorded version of each class. It follows the same sequence, theme, and meditation as the live session.

Because this takes some time to edit, the recording will be available 48 hours after the live class.

If you want to take the class but can’t make the session time, go ahead register and the class will be sent to you within 48 hours after the session time.
