In our longifudinal yoga study with more paralell groups, we met a problem. In order to standardize the social effect of the classes, we asked the teacher not to initiate dialouges with participanzs before/after the lessons (but of course react any questions from the students). The teacher found that because of that, an important benefit of yoga, namely the social experience is lost. 

How would you handle this in an intervention study: how to standardize the social effect without changing the intervention itself?
