Class Rules & Studio Etiquette
Protocol & Class Policies:
Kinetic Connection both follows and enforces protocol to keep you safe. Please, adhere to the following rules as a way to show your support to both the studio and your fellow yogi's / dancers.
*Pole Class Changes!
We are not able to offer In-person Group pole classes at this time. We are only able to offer private classes and online classes.
Cleaning Policy:
In-person: We ask that you please arrive with cleaned hands. Your own cleaned props/ mats if you have them. (We supply poles & crash pads for Pole classes. We supply yoga blocks & yoga straps for yoga classes. Yoga mats available for rent). Poles, stages, crash pads and bathrooms (+door handles and stair railing) are cleaned before and after every class with Government recommended cleaning products. Students may wipe down their props with provided alcohol at any point of time during class.
Shared Props & Equipment Policy:
All shared props & equipment are cleaned before & after classes. Feel free to bring any of your own props that you would like to use during class. Please clean any surfaces, equipment or props that you may dirty, or as you feel necessary through out class per your individual comfort.
Sign-Up Forms
For In-studio classes, work shops or private classes we will have you fill out a studio waiver & liability form. You may also fill out an optional New Student Form.
These Forms have been added to the sign up process when booking a class.
Punctuality :
Please arrive to class times 5 minutes early. This allows time for set up before class, and for teachers to give any pre-class announcements.
Respect:
Respect is the most important part of our studios morals and ethics. We believe everyone deserves respect and a safe, judgement free zone to do their practice. Please respect the studio's space, your instructors and fellow class mates.
Consent:
Consent goes hand in hand with respect. Instructors ask for consent before giving you a physical adjustment, unless an immediate emergency is needed. If you ever feel violated in class please reach out to: kineticonnection@yogadance.studio
In addition to physical consent you have the right to with draw your consent for any part of the practice at any time. If there is a part of class you would not like to participate in, we encourage you to listen to yourself & only do what you are comfortable with.
Photography/ Privacy:
We do occasionally take photos/ videos during classes. We will not film or record you during these sessions, these sessions are only recording the instructor. (Unless you give us specific permission or request us to record you). If you decide to take a photo or video in the studio, please be mindful of other students who may be in the background. Always get consent before posting an image with another person in it. It is AGAINST OUR POLICIES for you to record online Classes for any reason with out direct permission granted.
Additional Info for Online Classes:
In online classes we ask that you please turn on video, and turn off audio (mute yourself). This way instructors can see you to provide better cues, adjustments and modifications. Please place your camera in a way to help the instructor best see you. Having Mic Audio Off is less disruptive during class and also allows the screen to stay fixated on the host (instructor) of the zoom class, if students forget "pin the host" during class. Instructors will instruct you to turn on your mic as needed.
Additional Info for In-Person Workshop:
Please respect this space. This studio is our yoga home and also the owners real home. We ask that you please treat this space as sacred as your own home as well. We do have cats & dogs on the property, if any of these animals causes you discomfort, we ask that you consider this before signing up for classes. Please respect the animals on this property just as much (if not more haha) as the other people sharing this space with you.
Trigger Warnings:
We provide trigger warnings for all classes involving aspects of meditation. This is to best help and assist all students and help to make yoga a more inclusive space for all.

Attire/ What to bring to Classes
Yoga Classes:
During classes it is recommended to bring/ you may need:
- A Yoga Mat
- Yoga blocks (2 blocks are standard)
- A Yoga Strap (A scarf, belt, dog leash, rolled up towel or really anything long/strap like may work as a substitute if you do not have a proper yoga strap.)
- A water bottle/ Water
- A blanket or pillow
If any [additional] props are specifically needed for class it will be listed in the description on our schedule.
Classes may warm up the body & work up a sweat. We recommend wearing clothes that you will feel comfortable in & have full range of movement in. Typical form fitting workout clothes tend to help assist Asana posses. Some may prefer to have skin of the arms or legs show for better gripping & movement. Some may prefer looser fitting clothes. We ask, regardless of the clothing style you rock, to keep all private areas & genitals of the body covered during Online & In-person classes.
Dance Classes:
We recommend that you come to class prepared with water, and pole grip (if you are taking an "on the Pole Class."). Some people may find pole gloves/ pole stick clothes assist them during practice. Gripping onto the pole is the most important part of pole dancing. You will sweat & slip, to get better grip contact with the pole, skin to pole contact is recommended. Clothing that allows a lot of shown skin help assist pole dancing.
(EX: sports bras, tank tops, crop tops, shorts/booty shorts, etc)
We do allow students to wear booty shorts or thongs in class. We ask that you please keep genitals and private parts covered. If you do decide to wear a thong to class, we ask that you please wear 2 pairs of thongs at once, this helps to keep from accidental slipping/wardrobe malfunctions during class. Barefoot or your dancer heels are the recommended footwear. We do not allow street shoes in the studio during in person classes.
