top ^history and mission
Discover Yoga was established in 1997 in the Stonehouse bookstore in Redmond. Since its inception, the teachers and staff have been committed to serving our students through instruction of yoga postures and breathing techniques as well as the history and philosophy of Yoga. In the tradition of Sri Krishnamacharya, (father and teacher of TKV Desikachar) our instructors have learned to adapt each class to the needs of the students. This provides opportunity to begin at any level and deepen your practice with each class you attend.
Mission Our mission is to introduce people to the world of yoga, to offer classes and workshops that enrich people's lives, and to make a positive contribution to our local and global communities.
During your time at Discover Yoga it is our intention to guide you to the door of your personal journey as you discover this ancient art and science of movement, breath and meditation. As you continue to practice Yoga, you may begin to experience the profound changes that affect how you see yourself, others and the world around you. This transformation is at the very heart of Yoga.
We hope you will join us, step by step, on this path of self-discovery through the joy of Yoga.
top ^What to Expect when you visit
We are located on the 1st floor next to Tree House for Kids in downtown Redmond. We have parking in front of the building and shared parking for Redmond Center. We have a large and small studio. We provide blankets, bolsters, pillows, blocks and limited selection of mats. We also provide cups and Crystal Springs water.
Wear comfortable clothes to move in. Eat sparingly up to 2 hours prior to class and drink enough water to be hydrated. Please do not wear perfume. We are a breathing center and people may be allergic to the scent. You may also want a water bottle filled with water for during or after class to stay hydrated.
Classes are based on hatha yoga. We offer classes in the viniyoga tradition. Each instructor offers his or her own personality, compassion, experience and knowledge to the classes. Our instructors will adapt each class to the needs of the students.
When you arrive, you can place your shoes in the welcome area. Check in at the front desk, then walk through the door to the hallway with benches and cubbies for your belongings. Please leave your coat (with cell phone turned off) and any other belongings you will not need during class in the hallway. On your first visit, we will ask you to complete a Student Information Form. On subsequent visits, please sign in at the front desk. Class passes for a number of classes and monthly subscription are available.
To set up for class, the students sit in a circle. If it's your first visit, please gather a mat, blanket and pillow before you sit in the circle.
To begin the class, the instructor will ask each person what they came to class for. The instructor can then determine the yoga practice appropriate for each individual and the class as a whole. If at any time, you are uncomfortable with a posture or technique, we encourage you to adapt or ask the instructor for an variation.
We hope you feel the benefits of your yoga practice linger.
