FAQs

Are beginners welcome?

Yes—absolutely! Whether you're brand new to yoga, dance, or pilates, our teachers will meet you where you are. Check out our New Student Guide before your fist visit.

Do I need to bring a mat or towel?

We suggest bringing a yoga mat, a water bottle, and a towel if you sweat a lot. We also offer mat rentals, towels (when available).

What’s the phone policy?

To keep the practice space peaceful, please silence your phone and store it away (preferably, leave it in your car). If you’re expecting an urgent call or have a special circumstance, let your teacher know before class.

Do you have water available?

We don’t offer single-use water bottles or cups, but we do have a filtered water station.

Are the classes heated?

Most are to some degree. On the Schedule page, you’ll see a heat level listed next to each class:

  • Warm: 85–90°F

  • Heated: 95–100°F

  • Hot: 100–105°F

Where do I put my stuff?

We offer cubbies in the changing area. You’re also welcome to bring valuables into the studio with you if you prefer.

Can I use my Alpenflow class pack?

Yes—if you choose to continue at Studio Truckee we will give you class credits that match your unused Alpenflow credits. While we are a new business utilizing the same space, we want to provide a smooth transition for our community. All you have to do is sign up for class in MindBody as usual and we’ll take care of the rest.

Do I have to stay for Savasana?

We really encourage it. Savasana (final rest) is one of the most important parts of class—it’s where your body integrates the practice. If you absolutely need to leave early, please let your teacher know ahead of time and exit quietly before Savasana begins.

Is there parking?

Yes! We have convenient parking available right outside the studio. We recommend arriving a bit early, especially during busy class times or holidays.

What time should I arrive for class?

  • New students: Please arrive at least 15 minutes early to fill out a waiver and get settled.

  • Returning students: Arrive 5–10 minutes before class starts to check in, grab your props, and land.

If you arrive late, we ask that you wait until the opening meditation or breathwork is complete before entering the space.

Do I need to bring my own mat or towel?

You’re welcome to bring your own yoga mat and towel—but we’ve got you covered if you forget!

  • Yoga mat rental: $5

  • Mat towel: available for purchase

  • Hand towels: complimentary (when available)
