Frequently Asked Questions

  • Elementyl is located at Via Mura Etrusche 5, a small street off Via Augusto Ciuffelli — the main road into Todi.

    • From the Consolazione: Continue past Giardino Oberdan — we're on the left

    • From Piazza Jacopone: We're on the right side of Via Augusto Ciuffelli

    Todi's historic centre has limited street parking, but don't let that discourage you — we're easy to reach and all options are just minutes away, giving you a chance to arrive calm and centred for your practice. We recommend arriving 10–15 minutes early, especially if you're new to Todi.

    Consolazione Parking Lot — Free
    The easiest option. Park at Consolazione and enjoy a scenic 10-minute walk up the hill through Todi's charming streets to the studio. If you'd prefer not to walk, the free local bus (Linea E) runs every 20 minutes between Porta Orvietana, Consolazione, and Piazza Jacopone — the ride takes approximately 5–7 minutes.

    Porta Orvietana Parking Lot — Paid
    Park at Porta Orvietana and take the funicular (Ascensore di Todi) or the new elevator up to the historic centre — an experience in itself! The funicular operates from 6:00am to 1:00am. From the elevator, the walk to the studio is approximately 5 minutes. The local bus (Linea E) is also available from this lot and connects to the centre in minutes.

  • Cancellation Policy

    We know life in Todi moves at its own pace and we want to be flexible wherever we can. Every mat truly matters, and a little notice goes a long way in keeping Elementyl sustainable for everyone:

    • Cancel more than 12 hours before class — your credit is fully returned, no questions asked

    • Cancellations within 12 hours or no-show — the class credit is forfeited, as it's rarely possible to fill the spot at short notice

    • Vino & Vinyasa — non-refundable within 48 hours of the event

    Class Minimums

    A minimum of 2 students is required for a class to run. If a class hasn't reached its minimum by 10pm the evening before, you'll be notified in the morning and your credit will be returned in full. Same goes for evening classes. If the class hasn’t reached it’s minimum by 12PM, you’ll be notified that afternoon and your credit will be returned in full.

    Late Arrivals

    Please arrive 5-10 minutes before class to settle in and set up your mat. Out of respect for the group and the teacher, we may not be able to admit latecomers once class has begun. If you're running behind, let us know in advance — we'll always do our best to accommodate where we can.

  • Elementyl is housed in a beautiful old Umbrian wine cellar in the heart of Todi's historic centre — a unique and grounding space to practice.

    We provide everything you need — 6mm yoga mats, blankets, blocks, straps, bolsters, and eye pillows — all included in the price of your class. There is no need to bring your own equipment, though you're welcome to if you prefer.

    The studio has a shared changing room and a private bathroom for your comfort and convenience.

    A note for winter visitors: the studio can feel cool in colder months given its stone walls. We recommend bringing socks and a light sweater or jacket for Yin, Restorative, and slower-paced practices. We also provide heavy wool blankets as props or for extra warmth.

  • Hydration: Drink plenty of water before class to keep your body well hydrated and energised. We don't drink water during class and ask that you leave your water bottle outside the practice room.

    Food: We recommend refraining from eating large or heavy meals for up to two hours before class. Asanas are best practiced on an empty or light stomach — if you need something beforehand, keep it light: fruit, nuts, or yogurt work well.

    What to wear: Comfortable, fitted clothing that allows you to move freely without extra fabric getting in the way. If you wear socks during practice, grippy socks are recommended so you don't slide on the mat. In cooler months, bring a sweater or light jacket for slower-paced classes.

    After class: It's not recommended to do strenuous exercise such as cardio or weight training immediately after a strong Vinyasa or Hatha class — give your body time to integrate the practice.

    Illness or injury: Yoga should not be practiced in a state of exhaustion, illness, or under significant physical stress. During illness, surgery recovery, sprains, or fractures, please refrain from Vinyasa or Yang-style yoga and consult a healthcare professional before returning to practice.

  • Absolutely — you are warmly welcome. Bring an open attitude and a genuine willingness to step into something new. That openness is all you need.

    A few gentle suggestions for your first class:

    • Place your mat toward the back of the studio so you can observe others during unfamiliar moments — it helps you learn and feel more at ease

    • You won't know the names of poses yet, and that is completely normal. You will learn over time

    • Rest whenever your body asks for it — pauses, modifications, Child's pose, and Corpse pose are all part of the practice

    • You may feel some soreness or fatigue after your first few classes — this is completely normal as your body learns new skills, engages new muscles, and begins to release what it's been holding

    Be patient with the process. Be kind to yourself. Be willing to give yourself the time and space to transform.

  • To feel the deeply transformational benefits of a regular yoga practice, we recommend coming to the mat two to three times per week. That said, always listen to your body and tune into what it truly needs — your practice and its ideal frequency will be as individual and uniquely suited to you as you are.
