Online Class and Workshop Questions
Are classes and workshops recorded?
Some of our classes and most of our workshops are recorded. If we post class videos online, we edit out all student images, voices, and names prior to posting the video. Workshop videos are distributed to paying workshop attendees for limited-time viewing. Students are not always removed from videos for distribution for limited attendee viewing, unless upon request by the teacher or student.
​
Do I need to have my video on during class?
We request, but do not require, that you have your video on while attending online classes and workshops. Video helps our teachers ensure that their instructions are clear and allow them to offer support, as needed.
What do I need to communicate to my teacher during online classes?
Much like attending an in-person class, we ask our students to communicate with the teacher any conditions or situations that would limit safe participation. You may communicate with the teacher through a class-wide, or private chat, or by unmuting if you are comfortable discussing your situation.
How should I set up for my online class?
We recommend finding a place to set your phone, tablet, or computer that is a distance away from your mat so that your full body is visible to the camera. Make sure that you can see your screen as well. Please have any props you may need close-by, and if possible, minimize noise and distraction.
What security policies do you have set up around class and workshop links?
We adhere to all Zoom security requirements. Our links are distributed only to paid participants, and all classes and workshops are password protected.
​
How will I receive my Zoom link?
For online classes and workshops, your virtual session link will be included in a reminder email which is automatically sent 1 hour before your class or workshop begins. If you book less than 1 hour before your class or workshop, you will need to log into your Wellness Living account, go to “My Schedule” and start the virtual session from there.
Please note: if you have unsubscribed to our auto-generated emails in the past, you may need to re-subscribe to receive these emailed links.
