Zoom is a video conferencing program that we use for our virtual yoga lessons.
The Zoom website is: https://zoom.us/

Minga has a “Zoom room” with a special link for a private video conversation. When your sessions have been scheduled, you will receive an email with the following information:
Meeting date
Meeting time
URL to Minga's Zoom room:
6. Go to Zoom Meeting email.
7. Tap on the URL to open the Zoom room. A box will appear.
8. Tap "Allow” or "open zoom.us" and the Zoom app will be activated and your meeting with me will appear!
If you’ve never used Zoom, I’ll happily schedule a quick test call. Just email me and let me know some good times for a 10-15 minute call.
Tips for getting the best out of your Zoom class:
Works best on a laptop with a camera rather than a phone or tablet.
Set up your laptop far enough away so I can see you & the side view of your full mat. The whole horizontal mat should be in the camera frame. (Together we can make little adjustments as needed at the beginning of your yoga therapy session or public class.)
