Mission’s code of conduct is underpinned by traditional yoga ethical principles. The Yamas and the Niyamas in Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras are living principles that we believe encourage awareness, compassion, and peace.
We welcome everyone at Mission, whatever your faith, gender, sexual orientation, ability, race, or background. Our code of conduct sets the standard we ask of our students so that everyone can practise movement in a supportive and non-threatening environment.
1. To behave in a responsible manner that helps foster mutual respect, understanding and courtesy between all members of the Mission community – teachers, staff, and students alike.
2. To behave and communicate in ways that do not unreasonably offend others. Examples of unreasonably offensive behavior include abuse or obscene language and engaging in any form of discriminatory or anti-social behavior.
3. To care for the environment at Mission by respecting our buildings, spaces and facilities.
4. To arrive on time to classes.
5. To ensure any activity you engage in using the Internet and social media refrains from causing offense, and that could be regarded as bullying or harassment.
6. To be mindful that not everyone wants to be on social media, and so refrain from recording content of live classes.
7. To maintain a professional relationship with teachers and staff, and to respect the boundaries they set.
