An annual favorite class! Everyone sends a message to Ti with their least favorite poses (include several!) and then we do them all. Don’t worry! You won’t dislike all of them!
Advanced registration required. Contact Ti to sign up and include the poses you would rather avoid doing, so we can be sure to do them. Use the contact box at the bottom of the page.
Suggested donation: $20-30 (never meant to keep anyone away!)

FAQ
How will we keep each other safe while doing in-person yoga?
Ti is fully vaccinated. For now, only fully vaccinated people will be allowed in classes. Everyone will need to show Ti their vaccine card. (Or send a picture anytime. The picture will be deleted but record of having seen it will be kept). This is an uncomfortable requirement, but for the feeling of safety of everyone involved, this is the way we can meet in person for now. Read more details about in-person yoga on Ti’s Blog.
If you feel sick at all, please just stay home for the good of the community.
Where should I park near Yoga Shala Carrboro?
There is almost no parking at the building (maybe 8 spaces for the whole building). If there are not spaces there, please park at the free and close Carrboro public parking lots either on Laurel St a little down from the Farmer’s Market or on Weaver St. between The Wellness Alliance and Sparrow & Sons Plumbing. DON’T PARK AT AUTO LOGIC when they are open!
How can I cultivate good energy doing yoga at home?
I generally encourage if at all possible don’t have your yoga space be in your bedroom, which as you know has the energy of sleep there more strongly than other locations, and in yoga, of course, we are trying to Wake Up! If you use an office space or space where there’s a computer or TV, covering those screens with something pretty at least for your practice time can make a surprisingly big difference in the quality of your practice. Appropriate lighting also can help create an ambience if you are practicing in the evening.
How does a by Donation studio work?
The donation requested is $10-20 per class; this IS NOT a cost! Please give what you can, whether on this scale or not. Money should never prevent anyone from coming as much as they want, and no one is ever turned away for financial reasons. From the blog: thoughts on donation yoga
How does being a Go Deep Member work?
Membership simply means you’ve signed the waiver. Once you’ve signed the waiver, you’ll get a password to get you into the studio where you will find the Zoom meeting links. You’ll also get the passcode for all of the Zoom classes. I recommend that you try to put your mat down on the ground and sit for a few minutes before class begins to center yourself.
But…Yoga with my phone?
If you are joining on Zoom, you are, of course, using an electronic communication device. Remember, whatever the device, don’t answer any calls or texts or emails or whatever during your practice time; don’t check the news or stocks or whatever; no social media. You know. For that time, your device is just a “yoga prop,” nothing more, and is to be used ONLY for that purpose. You may know what I mean.
