Kristina, Liz, and Bridget our three certified Yoga teachers, combine in their own authentic and passionate style almost all types of Yoga practices from a very Gentle Yoga Flow to an intense Power Flow, with specific practices such as Iyengar Yoga and Chair Yoga.

​​

Restorative Yoga: This class is the most relaxing practice, using blankets, bolsters and blocks to support you in a few different postures for long periods of time. Your muscles will stretch and relaxed softly. It ends with a guided mindfulness meditation and will leave you feeling supremely blissed, and much more limber! This class is accessible to all levels.

​

Gentle Yoga: Gentle yoga is aimed at those who enjoy moving through the asanas at a much slower pace. It also involves a greater focus on breath work and achieving a deep sense of calm both physically and spiritually. This is a great practice for those who don't necessarily want to feel as if they've had a workout but who want to connect with their body and their breath in a relaxing space. This class is accessible to all levels.

​

Beginners' Yoga: join us for an introduction to yoga, a flowing approach that links the breath to your movements while stretching the whole body through easy yoga poses and sun salutations. Yoga for beginners typically includes basic poses, breathwork, stretching and relaxation techniques at the end of the class. It will help you improve flexibility, balance, and overall well-being. This class is accessible to all levels.

 

Morning Flow: Flow yoga, also known as Vinyasa yoga or dynamic yoga, focuses on connecting the breath to the movement, with emphasis on movement series like The Sun Salutation and the Warrior Series. A vinyasa class will leave you feeling energised and connected to your body and your breath. Some knowledge of yoga poses or asanas and breathing techniques can be useful to follow this class., but Kristina will make sure any new Yogis feels welcomed and can easily follow the class. 

​

Flow and Yin: A 30 minutes energising yoga flow, followed by 30 minutes of deep stretches with longer holds, moving beyond muscular stretch into the connective tissue. This class will leave you feeling fully relaxed and restored, ready for bed. Step out of the studio on a little cloud of happiness.

​

HIIT Yoga: time to get really sweaty! Typical intense Vinyasa flow warm up followed by 24 minutes of HIIT (high intensity interval training), where we do 3 sets of 8 mins. Each exercise will be done for 30 seconds and then we will rest for 10 seconds. Class ends with long deep stretches and Savasana. This class is accessible to all levels and will get you fit and toned for the rest of the week.

​

Power Flow: Power flow yoga is a form of Vinyasa flow yoga and is quite a fast paced form of yoga, with emphasis on movement series like The Sun Salutation and the Warrior Series. A power flow class will leave you feeling energised and connected to your body and your breath, and you will know that you have had a workout! A great option for those with yoga experience or those who are already quite athletic. Some knowledge of yoga poses or asanas and breathing techniques is recommended to follow this class. 

​

Iyengar Yoga: Bridget will be running an Iyengar Yoga class on Thursdays at 5.15pm suitable for beginners and also those with more experience. Using yoga poses to gently stretch out the body, build strength and develop greater flexibility, promoting well-being, reducing stress and prevention of injury. A perfect antidote to sedentary lifestyles and also great for people who are more active. Classes all end with relaxation.

​

Iyengar Yoga is practised worldwide and is known for its focus on precise alignment, safe progression, and adaptability for all ages and abilities. Props such as blocks and chairs are often used so that everyone can benefit from the postures. Rooted in the lifelong practice of B.K.S. Iyengar, this method continues to be taught and upheld to the highest standards through the Iyengar Yoga Association (UK).

​

​3 SPECIFIC YOGA PRACTICES

​

Over 50's Gentle Chair Yoga: This is a 45 minute practice for those with limited mobility, where the practice is based in a chair. You will strengthen your body, stretch your muscles and connective tissues, and you'll have time to connect with your breath. This class is accessible to all levels.

​

Core and Restore Yoga: Join us for a soft yoga flow on your mat, followed by a full body workout to improve muscle tone, body alignment, flexibility and core strength as you would with a Pilates class. The Core and Restore Yoga ends with a lon stretch of the deep muscles and relaxation. This class is accessible to all levels.

​

Yin Yoga: Yin yoga is a calm and slow form of yoga that focuses on the holding of poses for 3-5 minutes to achieve an extremely deep stretch of not just the muscles but also of the connective tissues. A typical yin yoga class won’t cycle through as many poses as a typical hatha or vinyasa class, but will focus on going deep within each pose, and the use of the breath to stay in the poses is an important part of these classes. You will leave this class feeling deeply relaxed out and ready for a good night's sleep! This class is accessible to all levels. 
 

CHILDREN'S AND TEENS' CLASSES

Our children's yoga class will be open to 5-10 year-olds, and parents are more than welcome to stay and sit on the sidelines. Physically, it will help your little one become stronger and more flexible, and mentally it will give them a sense of calm and a way of coping with stress.

Teen Yoga for 10-17 years-old: We all know how important it is to start good habits when we are young, and yoga has been shown to be extremely useful for teenagers. Our Teen Yoga class is open to 10-17 year-olds, and is build upon how they feel at the beginning of each of their classe.

Mentally it will give them a sense of calm and a way of coping with stress. Unfortunate as it might be, school, exams, daily life events, hormonal changes, can be very stressful for young teenagers, but yoga can give them an outlet for this stress.
