what to bring?
this is for me!
Yoga mats aren’t provided, please bring your own one OR Lillie’s top tip is to bring a towel, they are slip free on the hot beach yoga days and easier to get sand off (low maintenance, great hack!). Bring your water bottle. Please arrive 10 minutes before your session.

frequently asked questions
If there is light rain, the class will continue as normal! It can be humbling and wonderfully refreshing - I don’t believe in staying indoors just because it’s raining. However, in the case of weather warnings, storms, or heavy rain, drop-in participants and 5 class pass holders will receive a code to book the next available date that suits them. Going off our previous beach season, I only had to cancel one class due to bad weather.
What happens if there is bad weather?
Nope! You will need to bring your own BUT I am not a huge fan of using yoga mats on the beach anyway so if you don't have one just bring a towel! It is so much easier to get the sand off and if it is a hot day, you wont slip as you may do on a yoga mat. If you do want to get a yoga mat for beach yoga, get a vegan suede mat. These are great for outdoor yoga!
Do you provide yoga mats?
It is a requirement to book your place ahead of the class, this is because I have a number limit which is in line with my BCP council licence, insurance and every participant must complete and sign my waiver upon booking a class. Please note this is for your own health and safety.
Do I have to book or can I just show up?
All class bookings are non-refundable. You can reschedule your class up until 24 hours before the class. If I have to cancel the class due to severe weather or other extreme circumstances this will be communicated in advance and in this case, credits or rescheduling will be provided.
What is your cancellation policy?
YES! Great news! The public toilets are near enough opposite where the class takes place so don't worry if you have to pop to the toilet!
Are there public toilets nearby?
YES, fabulous news again! Alum Chine Beach has lots of residential road parking where you can enjoy free parking and there is also a car park at the bottom of the hill.
Is there parking nearby?
Children and pets are always welcome. Many parents bring their babies and they often enjoy watching the class. Children are welcome to play next to your mat and it’s common for them to interact with other children at the class. Please note that by bringing your child or pet, you do so at your own risk. I am not responsible for any injury or incident involving your child or pet during the class. Additionally, please ensure you check the weather and make sure it is safe and comfortable for them, especially on hot days.
