Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Studio Etiquette? 

If you're new to our studio, here are some simple guidelines that make the yoga experience enjoyable for everyone:

👟 No Shoes, Just Smiles: Please leave your shoes at the door before entering the practice room.

📵 Tech Timeout: Give your devices a little break! Turn off or silence phones and gadgets with notifications, including those sneaky Apple Watches.

🧘 Clear Space, Clear Mind: Keep your practice space serene by stowing personal items in the cubby holes. A decluttered space creates a decluttered mind.

🕒 Fashionably Early: Arrive at least 10 minutes before class starts. It gives you time to settle in, unwind, and maybe even chat with your fellow yogis.

🚶‍♀️ Fashionably Late? No Problem: Running a bit behind? Enter quietly, find a cozy spot in the back, and hold off on unrolling your mat until the teacher finishes their class intro.

🔄 Props in Place: Our props are like puzzle pieces – let's keep them where they belong. After class, kindly return them to their original spots.

🌬️ Easy on the Scent: Be kind to sensitive noses – skip the heavy perfumes. And of course, a quick pit-check is always appreciated.

🤫 Library Vibes in the Lobby: While waiting, speak softly as if you were in a library. Other yogis might be finding their zen in a class, and we want to keep the calm vibes flowing.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. We're thrilled to have you at Home Yoga!

What should I bring for class?

All you need is YOU!

If you have your own preferred mat, please bring it but we have extra mats here if you forget yours! If you know you tend to be on the sweatier side (as do most of us!) please bring a towel to help with any slipping.

Water is suggested!

Where is Home Yoga Studio Located? 

Home Yoga is conveniently located at 28475 Old Town Front Street, Suite B, behind Botega Italia and Silver Fever, right in the heart of Old Town Temecula, California.

What should I wear?

Dress according to your own personal needs & comfort. Wear clothes that will allow you to move and stretch and that will be breathable. An outfit that you would wear on a jog on a warm day will work well for most of our active classes, while it may be nice to have a few more layers for restorative classes where there is less/no vigorous movement.

No shoes are allowed in the yoga room, and we don't recommend wearing any socks during practice.
 

When should I arrive?

Yay, you're about to embark on your first Home Yoga experience! To make it smooth and stress-free, here's a friendly guide:

🌞 Early Birds Catch the Zen: Arrive about 15 minutes before your first class. It gives us time to get you all set up, answer any questions, and make sure you're feeling cozy before we dive into the good stuff.

📱 Tech-Savvy Check-In: Want to save some time? Sign in online ahead of your visit. It not only speeds up the check-in process but also ensures you snag your favorite spot in class.

🚪 Early Access Bonus: Doors swing open 25 minutes before the class starts. Feel free to pop in early, settle in, drink some complimentary tea and soak up the pre-class serenity.

🌟 Stay a While, Make a Friend: On your first visit, plan to hang out a few minutes after class. We'd love to get to know you better and welcome you into our yoga family. New friends make our day!

Can't wait to meet you on the mat at Home Yoga! 🌈✨

Where can I park?

Enjoy hassle-free parking! There's free parking behind our building, along the street, and in the parking lot caddy-corner from from the studio on 6th street.

What kind of payments do you accept?

We  accept debit/credit purchases online and in the studio as well as cash purchases in-studio. We recommend registering before class, it is super easy!

How do I sign up for class?

Signing up for class is quick, simple, and makes showing up to practice an easy seamless process. You can check the schedule online here and register or purchase any classes/memberships online beforehand. This will ensure your space in class is held as some of our classes can fill up quickly. You can also sign up using the Walla app! That is the fastest and easiest way to do so.
 

What type of class should I attend?

There is a class for everyone at HOME! Please take a look at our class descriptions and our online class schedule to see our current offerings.

If you are new to Vinyasa yoga, we recommend starting with one of our Gentle Yoga classes or Level 1 Alignment classes. These classes provide an open environment to learn, move, and dive into the specifics of the practice. Suitable for both new students and seasoned ones looking to refine their practice.
 

I have an injury can I still practice yoga?

That depends. What did your doctor say?

While we'd like to tell you that yoga will always heal you, we simply can't make those kinds of promises. Many students find yoga to be a helpful resource when working through an injury but it depends on the specifics and severity. Please consult with your doctor/physical therapist/bodyworker AND let your teacher know what is going on so that we can work through any necessary modifications for class.

We are here to help, but we are not qualified to diagnose any injuries or illness so your physician and your own intuition are the first lines of defense when working with an injury.
 

I'm pregnant, can I still come to class? Which one would be best for me?

That depends. What did your provider say?

While more & more providers are recommending women do yoga during pregnancy (which is great!), the general rule of thumb is not to start anything new or potentially stressful to your body during pregnancy.

If you've had a steady practice before pregnancy, likely you'll be able to enjoy continuing your practice throughout - but if you've never stepped on a yoga mat before, now may not be the best time to jump into a vigorous vinyasa class. We'd recommend you integrate yoga into your pregnancy with either our Restorative class or Level 1 Alignment.

If you have any questions regarding yoga during your pregnancy please reach out to your teacher before class starts.

What makes the location unique?

Our studio offers tranquility within the lively Old Town atmosphere. You'll find numerous eateries and shops within walking distance.

Can I explore Old Town before or after class?

Absolutely! Home Yoga's convenient location allows you to indulge in a tea, coffee, or lunch or Dinner from Old Town's vibrant offerings.

How accessible is Home Yoga?

Easily accessible, Home Yoga provides a peaceful retreat in the heart of Old Town Temecula. During special events there might be road closures, don’t worry we are great at keeping you updated!
