We know trying your first class can feel a little intimidating. This page will walk you through exactly what to expect so you can feel confident walking through our doors.


Your First Visit 

Here’s all you need to know:

  • Book your class in advance (through our schedule or momence app)
  • Arrive 10 minutes early so you can settle in
  • Wear comfortable clothing you can move in
  • Bring water + a hair tie

That’s it. You don’t need to be flexible or experienced; we’ll guide you through everything.


When You Arrive

  • Take your shoes off at the entrance
  • Store your belongings in the cubbies
  • Let your instructor know it’s your first class (we’ve got you!)

Most people feel nervous before their first class. That’s completely normal, and it goes away quickly.


During Class

  • Classes start on time (doors are locked once class begins)
  • Follow along as best you can and rest anytime
  • Phones are turned off to keep the space calm
  • Keep conversations in the front area (studio space is quiet)

Yoga is not about being perfect. It’s about showing up and listening to your body.


After Class

  • Take a moment. Don’t rush to look at your phone. You might feel different (in a good way).
  • Clean any mats/props you used
  • Ask your instructor what class to try next
  • Book your next class right away to help you stay consistent

What to Bring (and What We Provide)

We’ve got options:

  • Mats and props are available (please sanitize after use)
  • You can also purchase your own if you prefer
  • Mat storage is available for $10/month

Parking

  • Coquitlam: Lot at 2922 Glen Drive OR parking at Coquitlam Centre Mall (be mindful of time limits if leaving the area)
  • Pitt Meadows: Plenty of parking right out front

A Few Small Things That Make a Big Difference

  • Plan to stay for the whole class; leaving early is not permitted

You’re Ready

That’s everything!

You don’t need to overthink it. You don’t need to prepare perfectly.
You just need to show up!
