FREE TO BE FAQ

frequently asked questions

WHAT IF I'VE NEVER DONE YOGA BEFORE?
Can’t touch your toes? Have tight hamstrings? That’s why there’s yoga!! We weren’t super flexible when we first began yoga either! There are so many variations we can offer you to help you find the poses that feel just right.
WHAT IF I CAN'T DO ALL THE POSES?
Who can? I mean really?! Our goal at Free To Be is not to put everyone into the "perfect”pose, but rather to help you create the pose that FEELS good in your body! You may feel uncomfortable the first handful of times you step into the studio and onto your mat, but only when you step out of your comfort zone can you realize what you are capable of.
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR TO CLASS?
Clean attire that you can easily move in. We like clothing that is moisture-wicking because we sweat - A LOT! Please be respectful in your clothing choices.
WILL I DO THE SAME POSES EVERY CLASS?
At Free To Be, the core methodology we use is the Journey into Power™ sequence created by Baron Baptiste. We use this sequence as the “blue print” or foundation of our teaching while offering variations and additional postures to further enhance your experience. No two classes will ever be exactly the same!*We now offer an additional styles of vinyasa yoga: Freedom Flow.
CAN I USE MY MEMBERSHIP AT ANY STUDIO?
Uptown, Downtown and Old Metairie members can use the Month to Month Auto-Renew membership, One Year Unlimited membership and Intro Special membership at any studio. Class packages can only be used to practice at the studio where the package was purchased.

ARE ALL OF YOUR CLASSES HEATED?
All of our classes are heated except for our kids and family classes, restorative classes, and meditation classes.
HOW HOT DOES IT GET?
In our signature Free To Be Flow classes, the temperature of the room is approximately 90-95 degrees (unless otherwise noted in the class description) and the humidity of South Louisiana’s climate, combined with the physical intensity of the practice and the heat generated by your (and your neighbors’) breath, will cause you to sweat. We do offer gently heated and non-heated (beginners and restorative) classes. Check out the class descriptionsfor details on temperatures in specific classes. It is important that stay hydrated.
DO YOU RENT MATS?
Yep, we have mat rentals for $2. We also rent yogitoes (mat sized towels with sticky grips on the bottom to go on top of of your mat) for $3. And we rent sweat towels for $1.
