To “unleash” (?) my kindness, I have to know the boundaries if any. Need to be informed in all levels, all welcome kind of a class.
If you have a medical condition, get an OK from a health professional before practicing.
Also do inform the instructor before class if you suffer from any injuries so modifications can be made if necessary.
Everything is adaptable but clear communication is needed for each student to get the most out of the time invested in self – most satisfying time for yourself awaits if there’s a way to adjust the class to everyone with different needs and conditions – one size fits all cookie cutter mold of a class is probably not satisfying to all but if the instructor is well informed and made aware of special needs, maybe a more nuanced experience is attainable.
You might be surprised that the teacher wants to make adjustments and modifications to make it perfect for anyone who wants to be there.
A teacher would appreciate as that information enables them to give more of the right care in the needed areas.
After all, we didn’t get into doing what we do if we didn’t care.
Namaste:)
