To help me support you in your practice, it’s useful if I can see you clearly on screen. Below is a simple guide to setting up your camera so I can keep a side-eye on your posture while we practice—without you needing to adjust mid-class.

1. Position Your Camera

• Place your laptop/tablet/phone to the side of your mat, at about waist height. (Approximately 1.5 to 2metres away is a good distance if space allows.)

• This gives a good side-on view so I can see both standing and floor poses.

• If possible, tilt the camera slightly downward for a full view of your mat.

2. Lighting

• Try to have light in front of you (e.g. from a window or lamp), rather than behind.

• This helps me see you clearly, even in darker evenings.

3. Space Around Your Mat

• Leave a little space at the top and sides of your mat so movements don’t go “out of frame.”

• If you’re using props (blocks, belt, chair), keep them nearby.

• Dedicated wall space (about the size of the short edge of your mat or wider) is always useful

4. Quick Test

• Open your Zoom preview before class and check: can you see your whole body when standing and lying down?

• Adjust the distance or angle if needed.

Setting up this way means I can keep an eye on you during practice and offer better support—thank you for taking a moment to prepare!
