Parental Guidance
Please ensure there is an open workout space free of any potential tripping hazards. Participants should wear comfortable clothing and have a water bottle handy. Having foam or cork blocks for support is beneficial for injury prevention. Students will always be guided on what sensations to expect during stretches and movements, so additional precautions are usually unnecessary.
While we won't practice inversions, ensuring a clear, hazard-free environment, including no sharp corners nearby, is advisable for general safety. Adult supervision is recommended, especially for beginner participants.
