Camera Staging: 

The “ideal" set up >>>

  • One device (phone or laptop) logged into Zoom *camera on/microphone on*, set across the room so I can see you while you are sitting or standing.  (See photo above.)
    This will allow me to see all of you so I can share additional alignment cues as we move through the postures.

  • Another device (laptop plugged into tv with HDMI, or phone connected to tv through airplay) logged into Zoom *camera off/sound not connected*.
    This will project Zoom on to your tv so you can see your team members and me on a larger screen.

  • If this 2-device set up is not possible for you, no worries… set up in your standard e-meeting way. These are just tips I’ve picked up teaching online these last few months.

Zoom:

We will be using Zoom.us for the video classes. For your first class, please try to log in a few minutes early to make sure there are no delays. You will be able to access the classes from your smartphone or your computer. When you join the meeting, please mute yourself, so there is no feedback.
