STEP #2: PLAN AHEAD
- Set up your practice space, including necessary yoga props
- Set up computer, tablet or device
- Turn your camera ON! To keep you safe during the session, the teacher will want to SEE you practicing. This is a vital step that often people overlook.
- Check your internet connection and minimize programs that could be impacting download speed (such as Netflix, Dropbox, etc)
- If you are participating in a live streaming class, review the technology requirements.
- Prioritize by allocating time and day to your calendar
