WE’RE ONLINE! Who’s zooming who?šŸŽµšŸ§˜šŸ¼ā€

Hey yogis. We’ve gone live with our first online yoga class and it was a piece of cake.

Don’t believe me… listen to this lot

 

Anita Boiling – ā€œIt was fab, you were amazing! I felt like I was in the studio. Anyone not sure….try it. The Zoom app is so easy to use, and it feels like a 1 to 1 class.ā€

Ā 

Sara Austin ā€“Ā ā€œCompletely brilliant session. Pretty seamless and very easy to access using Zoom.ā€

 

Francesca Ufton ā€“Ā ā€œGreat online Rise class today Josie….thank you so much for getting this set up, worked so well….looking forward to the next one! Xxā€

Ā 

Amanda Saxby ā€“Ā ā€œThank YOU Josie it was great. Nearly as good as being in your studio. This will make a big difference to everything over the next few weeks. Easy to set up the technology tooĀ šŸ’•.ā€

 

Sarah Crickmar ā€“Ā ā€œReally was good! Totally worth a try if you’re a beginner or more advanced, was just like being in the studio and so easy to set up! 😊 xā€

So, this week we’re wheeling out a few more test runs with you so we can all get happy with theĀ tech.

When are they Happening?Ā Right now.

Techno Averse?Ā I’ve got some instructions in this email and hope they will help you to get started quickly. You will need a strong wifi signal.

Class Times:Ā We will run the trial up until March 29 and will try to follow your existing class times from then where possible.

Length:Ā  Your usual 1 hour… but please join five minutes before the session is due to begin.

Format:Ā I can see and hear all of you and you can see and hear me, the yogis on the lessons this week said it was like a ā€˜one to one’

Costs during trial:Ā  NO CHARGE

Costs after trial:Ā Ā From March 29, we return as normal to using your existing class passes and memberships. (Discounted throughout our closure by 20% across all levels.)

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO

Ā Before the start of class you need to download the free software Zoom.Ā www.zoom.us

If you are using a phone then you need to download the ā€œZoom Mobile appā€. Ā Look for link to the Apple App Store/Google play.

You will receive your invitation via email before the class begins.

Click the Zoom link you received via email.

Alternatively, head to your customer account and click on the class you’ve registered onto from the calendar.

You will be able to join the meeting 15 minutes prior to the start time of the class.

If you get a message that the host isn’t ready just wait. You beat us to it… no rushing to yoga guys…;)

HOW TO GET THE BEST ONLINE EXPERIENCEĀ 

Find somewhere quiet where you are not likely to be interrupted or distracted to practice. Make sure you can stretch out your arms and legs and try and find room either side of your mat too if you can.

You should be able to see yourself and other attendees on your screen. Ā Position your camera so we can see you when you are lying down, and sitting. You’ll get usual cues and adjustments just as if we were in the room with you.

Before the class we’ll get a chance to say hi and chat with each other like we would normally in the studio. Once class has started all members go on mute so the camera stays on the teacher. Please wave if you have a question or comment, and the teacher will speak directly to you. You do not need to be able to see the teacher, only hear them. If you get any audio feedback lower the volume.

We’ll take you off mute at the end of the class so we can feedback and chat some more.

GOOD TO KNOWS!

Screen saver. Set this to over an hour or NEVER for the duration of the sessions – we don’t want you disappearing on us.

Devices: Ā Laptops have aĀ wider field of view and it’s easier to manipulate the camera position via the screen. A phone or tablet will work. Don’t block the camera.

Let’s keep practicing…

You’ve got this..
See you online…

Hello. Can you tell me how I may join in these classes and how much it would be.

Hey Sue. Sure, thanks for asking. There are a number or options including single, five class or 10 class membership packs. You can purchase these packs via the website and use them to book your classes. We do also have a complete membership option which has a number of benefits including unlimited access to our signature classes. These are released at certain times of the year so watch out for the opportunity if you would like to be one of our Kali Complete Members (if you sign-up and accept marketing you will be one of the first to know). All classes and membership options can be accessed via the timetable link once you’ve signed up. You can click here to go straight there http://www.yogalocal.co.uk/timetable. I hope that helps. Let me know if I can help any further.
