Frequently Asked Questions

I have never taken a Yoga Class before. What should I wear?

Please wear clothing that allows you to move your body freely while also providing your teacher with the ability to see your alignment.

Do I need to bring anything with me to class?

Please bring your own mat, blankets, bricks and belt if you have them. These items are also available in limited supply to borrow at the center.

I have taken Yoga classes at fitness centers, gyms and other studios before. What makes Iyengar Yoga classes different?

Our classes and our teachers are exceptional. Certified Iyengar Yoga Teachers have trained for several years, not hours, and have successfully passed a days-long assessment examination by leading Yoga experts before earning the designation (C.I.Y.T.) from the Iyengar Yoga Association of the United States (IYNAUS). Once certified, C.I.Y.T.s elevate their study of gross and subtle anatomy, physiology, psychology, Yoga philosophy, meditation, stress-reduction, breath work, etc. through dozens of hours of continuing education each year and hundreds of hours of practice.

Where is the Iyengar Yoga Center of the Lehigh Valley located?

The IYCLV is located in the Star of Bethlehem Lutheran Church on the West Side of Bethlehem, one block off of Broad Street at 514 3rd Avenue #210, Bethlehem, PA 18018 .

Where do I park?

You are welcome to park in the parking lot adjacent to the Church except on Sunday mornings (before 10:30am), when we are asked to park “on-street”.

From the parking lot, take the few steps down to the red double doors facing the center of the parking lot. Once Inside, head to the top floor. The studio is the second room on the right.

Additional important information for new students:

Please remove your shoes in the hallway. The room across the hall has space for you to hang your coat and leave your clothes. You can change in the bathrooms - turn left at the end of the hall and you’ll find the bathrooms just to the left of the steps. The snacks, treats and refreshments, including tea, espresso, sparkling beverages and water, are our gift to you. Please leave all food and drinks in that room, including your personal water bottles. There is a large basket in the studio for you to store any valuables.
