About the class

Kick off your day with the healthy practice of yoga! Yoga strengthens immunity, improves circulation, and provides a sense of calm to take throughout your day. Krissy teaches a flowing style of Hatha yoga which integrates solar or strengthening poses with lunar or restorative poses. Her teaching style is lighthearted and filled with alignment cues and breath work. This class is geared towards beginners, improvers and intermediate but all levels will receive the benefit of a morning practice. 

You may bring your own mats or props but we do have mats, blocks and blankets available to use.

What is the process for cancelling my registration?

We ask that you notify us at least 10 days in advance of a class if you need to cancel your registration. You may cancel by phone or email and we will gladly offer you a refund or credit toward a future class. If you cancel with less than 10 days’ notice, we will not be able to provide refunds, due to our contractual obligations and material purchases for each class. 

Sometimes, the Sonoma Community Center has to cancel a class due to low enrollment or unforeseen circumstances, such as a natural disaster or health emergency. If this happens and we do not offer a reschedule date, you will be refunded 100% of your registration fee, or credit towards a future class. If we are able to offer a reschedule date but you are unable to make the new date, we will gladly offer credit towards a future class.

Do you pro-rate late additions to classes?

Late additions to any program, class, or workshop that has already begun will be allowed on a per-case basis depending upon the Program Director & instructors approval. Late additions will have to pay the full registration cost of the class, along with any materials fees, and will not be prorated for the time missed. You may reach out to the program directors directly, or the Program Associate Sean Baskin at sean@sonomacommunitycenter.org to request a late addition.
