How to Adjust to Studio Yoga Classes after Online Workouts

 Doing yoga in a studio again after doing online workouts presents new opportunities for yoga enthusiasts in Davao. Here are tips to adjust to this transition.

Since the Philippines has begun adjusting to an even newer normal in our recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, we can now enjoy more activities face-to-face. For yoga enthusiasts in Davao who have done their workouts in front of a screen up until this point, you can do your workout in local studios! Here are some tips on how to adjust from learning onscreen to learning up close and personal.

Sanitize after workouts in the yoga studio

It is only proper local gym etiquette to clean your space once you’re done with the yoga. Especially now, following the stages of transitioning from digital work to face-to-face, you must be doubly careful about sanitation. Unlike at home, you have to be considerate about the public space, so the responsibility falls on you to make sure your workout spot is not only spick and span, but sanitized!

Find a workout program that works best for you

Adjusting to doing your yoga classes in studios after getting used to them online must be tiring. Depending on the instructors, you may look for workout classes that have blended face-to-face and digital programs. There are lots of yoga studios in Davao that offer discount packages for people who book longer sessions as well.

Choose a buddy to come along with you

Sometimes it’s more fun when you have someone else around to go do yoga at the studio with! Going downtown for the classes might take a lot of energy, and going alone mustn’t be as motivating than if someone joins you. Get a buddy to spot for you while you’re doing your workouts, or ask them to join in on the program!

While we are already transitioning to this new stage of COVID in Davao, it is still important to wear masks, even in yoga studios. Remember to practice social distancing, so you can stay safe and have fun at the same time.
