​MINI ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT

This statement was last updated on 16 March 2026.

I am committed to making yoga accessible,
and that includes this website.

What I am doing:

  • Checking that colour contrast at least meets AA standards for large text (it is possible to zoom to make the text larger).

  • Writing in plain English, and explaining Sanskrit terms where appropriate.

  • Writing out acronyms and initialisms.

  • Ensuring the website works well on both a mobile and laptop.

  • Ensuring there is no text that is in constant motion. There are some gentle, subtle animation effects as elements slide/fade in, but it stops within a second. There is no flashing.

  • There are no unreasonably short count down timers, so you can take your time filling out forms. Even as a mostly able-bodied person, this annoys the heck out of me! Setmore does have a five minute timer I can't remove. Their explanation was: "I'm afraid it is not possible to remove the timer. The timer is in place because customers may open the booking page and leave it idle for a long time before confirming the appointment. This can affect the availability for other customers. To avoid such conflicts and confusion, the timer automatically expires if the booking is not completed within the allotted time."

 

I haven't completed a full accessibility audit yet. This was a part of my last desk job and I'm not quite ready to face it again!

It is my sincere wish that one of the good things to come out of AI (Artificial Intelligence) will be more accessibility tools that completely open up the web for everyone.

I am happy to help you book manually if you need assistance. It'll also be a good opportunity to touch in about your needs and how I can adjust the yoga class or one to one, to make sure you have the best experience. I'm here for you! I'm willing to put in the time to research what works in your situation, and for us to learn together.

Please let me know if there's something you've noticed that I need to change on the website to make it easier to use.
