SCHEDULE UPDATES

Virtual Class Overview 

• Platform: Our virtual classes are offered via Zoom. Register through the MindBody app or through our website just as you normally would, and you’ll receive a link and password for the live stream. Log in at the class time (or a couple of minutes before, especially if it’s your first time using Zoom) and practice along with your instructor. 
• Schedule: You can sign up for a class you’re interested in even if you aren’t free at that exact time, and you’ll get a link to a recording of the class afterward. Sign up through the normal registration process and watch your email. The link to the recording will be sent within a few hours of class ending and will be active for you to view for 24 hours. If you’ve always wanted to take a class with a teacher whose schedule didn’t work with yours, now’s your chance!
• Email notifications: Make sure you are set up to receive email or text alerts in the Schedule Updates section of MindBody. Those alerts are how you’ll receive the class link. The easiest way to confirm is to visit the Schedule page of our website, click Sign Up on any class, log into your account, and rather than checking out, click the person icon in the upper right corner. Select Account Info and scroll down to confirm that email or text is checked for Schedule Updates, then click Save.
• Payment options: We are offering a range of payment options for online classes to best support you and our teachers. As a small business, we greatly appreciate your commitment to YoBe, and if you are financially able to, we encourage you to continue to use your memberships and class cards or purchase “drop-in” classes at our standard rates so that we can support our talented staff, many of whom teach yoga full time. Our senior/student/military rates are now available for purchase online. And because we know that many in our community are facing financial hardship right now, all classes will include $10 and $15 sliding scale options for those who need it. Please email sarah@yogaonbeacon.com to explore other options if needed.
• Gratitude: Thank you in advance for your patience and grace. While Zoom is remarkably easy to use, the audio might be wonky at times, the lighting may be less than ideal, or your connection might be glitchy.  If you have trouble connecting to a live stream class, please know that teachers will not be able to address technical issues during the class but that you will receive an email with the recording afterward. 
• Invite your friends: For the first time ever, you can share your love for YoBe with friends from around the world! At a time when we’re isolating ourselves at home, what better way to connect with your best friend in Atlanta or your aunt in Quebec than to take a yoga class together? Invite your friends and family to join you for a class; they’ll just need to register with MindBody and they’ll be all set.
• Feedback: Share your ideas, questions, and feedback with us. Email sarah@yogaonbeacon.comor message us on Facebook or Instagram to let us know how this experience is working for you. Or just tag us on social when you’re getting your yoga on!
