How do I sign up?

Sign up and reach every class just like an in-studio class, through Mindbody. Sign up is required a minimum of one hour before class.

Trying to sign up after the one hour mark? Email info@yogaloftstudios.com or text (312) 560-8668 before registering, so the studio can get you in before class starts.

How do I get into the class?

Live stream classes run on Zoom. Registered students get an email with that class's Zoom link about 30 minutes before class time. Make sure your Yoga Loft Studios account has the email address you actually use.

Fifteen to twenty minutes before class and still no link? Check your spam and junk folders first, then text the studio at (312) 560-8668.

How do I use Zoom?

On a phone or tablet, download the free Zoom app before class. On a computer, you create a free account the first time you use it, and you can do that quickly when you click the Zoom link in your email.

Will other students see me?

Every participant chooses whether to keep their camera on or off. If yours is on, the instructor and the other students can see you during class.

Will other students hear me?

Just before class your instructor asks everyone to mute for the length of class. That keeps a quiet, calm space for everyone and stays out of the way of the instructor's cues.

Can I talk to the instructor?

Before class you can briefly talk with the instructor. During class, unfortunately, you cannot speak with them. After class your instructor may have a few minutes to answer questions before the session ends.

Still have a question? Email it to info@yogaloftstudios.com and the studio is happy to pass it along.
