Nudity is an essential part of t he experience of Naked in Motion\\, but we acknowledge that nudity is not binary. To support our mission of equity and inclusion\\, we permit cert ain clothing and accessory items as described below.**\\n**Defining Naked ! -**\\n**Our definition of nudity is flexible in order to increase acces sibility. For example\\, you may wear underwear to manage menstruation. U nderwear is not required while menstruating\\, and it’s okay if tampon strings are visible. Additionally\\, participants may opt to use items su ch as underwear\\, binders\\, or prosthetics to manage trauma and/or gend er dysphoria. These examples are not an exhaustive list\\, so if you need an accommodation\\, just talk to us.**\\n**Nude spaces tend to have a ma jority of cisgender men in attendance\\, so our approach aims to lower ba rriers to participation for people of marginalized genders. Experiencing sexual harassment and objectification in everyday life can make it unders tandably more difficult to attend a nude event\\, and gender dysphoria ca n further add to this challenge. Accommodations aren’t meant to avoid t he discomfort that can come with naked yoga\\, but to make the practice p ossible for folks who otherwise would not attend.**\\n**While the gender makeup of class is a sensitive issue\\, we aren’t trying to meet an arb itrary quota. Furthermore\\, you can’t determine someone’s gender ide ntity by looking at them\\, and we want to provide a welcoming space for folks at all stages of transition. Experiencing safety in a nude environm ent amongst others can be life-changing\\, so your participation and coop eration have value well beyond our classes.**\\n**Logistics:**\\n* **PLEA SE REVIEW OUR NEW MAT POLICY: Everyone MUST bring their own mat and props (and we recommend a towel). We do not provide mats\\, and we no longer p ermit the use of studio mats or props. If you do not bring a suitable yog a/exercise mat\\, you may be turned away from class. For safety and sanit ary reasons\\, using a towel on the floor is not permitted. If you aren't sure what counts as a suitable mat\\, email us and we can help.**\\n* ** Doors open a half hour prior to class start time.**\\n* **Everyone is exp ected to be on time to hear the rules (even if you've heard them before). The instructor will close the entrance and place a sign on the door at t he start of class. After this point\\, no further entry will be permitted \\, NO EXCEPTIONS\\, and we don't refund latecomers. Please DO NOT KNOCK or disrupt class in an attempt to gain late entry.**\\n**STUDIO INFO:**\\ nSomaSpace\\n4050 Northeast Broadway\\nPortland\\, OR 97323\\n**Accessibi lity:** This studio is mostly wheelchair accessible (there is a 2-inch li p to get over the front door opening\\, and we are happy to assist with t his).\\n**Parking/Directions:** There is plenty of free 2-hour parking on surrounding streets. You are also welcome to park in the A-Boy parking l ot (one block west of SomaSpace on NE 40th) when the store is closed.\\n* *Community Rules:**\\n**Please read the rest of our Community Rules below \\, and visit our [FAQ page](https://www.nakedinmotion.com/faq) for more information.**\\n**Consent: All physical contact must be consensual. The instructor will place a red card on the floor in front of each person’s mat before class. Leave the card there to silently opt out of physical a djustments during class. Hide the card under your mat to opt in\\, and th e instructor will still ask for verbal consent before offering touch assi stance. Know your boundaries! You can change your mind at any time\\, and anything less than an enthusiastic “yes” means “no.” Our consent policy applies to all situations\\, including physical contact that may seem appropriate in a clothed setting (e.g.\\, hugs\\, moving through a c rowd)\\, so ask for permission before touching anyone before\\, during\\, and after class\\, even while clothed.**\\n**No Cruising: Please maintai n the desexualized atmosphere of our classes. Nudity is not an invitation for personal advances. While our classes can build a sense of community\ \, our goal is not to facilitate friendships. It’s okay to be friendly and chat with others\\, but we will prioritize individual safety over int erpersonal relationships. Don’t ask to meet up with students or instruc tors outside of class or make personal invitations to other events. Also\ \, please do not make comments about anyone’s body or appearance\\, inc luding compliments that may seem benign (e.g.\\, “your hair looks nice ). We’ll prioritize the experience of the recipient over the intentio n of a compliment\\, so err on the side of caution! This applies to live events and online platforms (e.g.\\, Meetup\\, Patreon).**\\n**Be Respect ful: We welcome all adults who abide by our rules and treat others with r espect and kindness. Body-shaming or hateful comments of any kind will no t be tolerated. Be conscious of your gaze and how it may affect others. M ind the difference between “seeing” and “looking.” It’s inevita ble to see other naked bodies\\, and it’s okay to look around if you ge t lost during the movement\\, but avoid intentionally looking at people o utside of that.**\\n**Cell Phones/Smartwatches: Cell phones are strictly prohibited while clothes are off\\, so please turn them OFF (not silent) and conceal them until the last person is clothed. You may use smartwatch es for health reasons if necessary\\, but please refrain from texting dur ing class.**\\n**The Erection Question: Signs of arousal\\, such as erect ions\\, can be involuntary and not necessarily sexually inspired. If you have an erection during class\\, just ignore it and keep moving\\, or tak e a resting pose if you prefer. If you have an erection after class\\, pl ease put on clothing before socializing with anyone. Any activities descr ibed as illicit\\, obscene\\, or sexual in nature are illegal and not per mitted in our classes.**\\n**No Latecomers: Everyone is expected to be on time to hear the rules (even if you've heard them before). The instructo r will lock the entrance and/or place a sign on the door at the start of class. After this point\\, NO FURTHER ENTRY WILL BE PERMITTED\\, and we d on't refund latecomers. Please do not knock or disrupt class in an attemp t to gain late entry.**\\n**No Lingering: Following the conclusion of cla ss\\, please exit the premises in a reasonable amount of time as directed by the instructor. Do not wait to be alone with an instructor or student after class.**\\n**Be Sober: Sobriety is mandatory. If you exhibit signs of intoxication\\, we may ask you to leave.**\\n**Mats/Props: Everyone M UST bring their own mat and props (and we recommend a towel). We do not p rovide mats\\, and we no longer permit the use of studio mats or props. I f you do not bring a suitable yoga/exercise mat\\, you may be turned away from class. For safety and sanitary reasons\\, using a towel on the floo r is not permitted.**\\n**If you experience or witness a rule violation\\ , please notify a member of our team ASAP\\; you will remain anonymous. W hile we prefer to be notified in person to help us identify people involv ed\\, you can also email us. The instructor reserves the right to ask any one to leave for any reason\\, and Naked in Motion management reserves th e right to revoke further class privileges.**\\n**Want to support the Nak ed! mission?
