Yoga mat: it’s better to have your own mat that remains with your sweat and dirt then using from the school or from the previous students because you never know from where the foul smell comes.

Cell phone and other gadgets: yoga requires you to be present in the moment and be fully aware of each and every sensation you experience. A ringing phone will not only distract you but will also disturb those around you. The course would nor demand or offer you much time to be the phone. Finish off your payments, inform the banking, friends and relatives otherwise they would get worried and cause you disturbance.
