Who is this for?
Anybody at any level. For those wanting to try yoga for the very first time as well as seasoned yogis, this class accommodates everyone. Beginners are provided with the correct guidance and gentle encouragement to work with and find themselves in each posture (asana) and those more experienced are challenged with modifications.
What does this class include?
A bit of everything! This class is challenging yet restoring, energising yet calming, engaging yet meditative. A true blend of Yin and Yang, we balance and unite these two opposing energies, creating equilibrium and harmony in the body, mind and spirit.
Classes start with guided relaxation, breath work (pranayama) and gentle limbering stretches, followed by a series of postures (asanas) that will lengthen, strengthen and challenge the entire body to your own ability, followed by a heavenly guided relaxation and meditation (savasana) to melt into at the end.
Who is this for?
For those that love their yoga practise to feel like a workout! Suited to those with a good level of fitness who like a strong and challenging class.
What does this class include?
This is an energising class that incorporates dynamic postures (asanas) and transitions between sequences that are fun, fluid and challenging. Strengthen, lengthen, stretch and flex and ignite the fire within! Class ends with a relaxation (savasana) to allow for restful repose to enable the body and mind to absorb all the positive energy you created in your postures (asanas).
Who is this for?
Beginners with a good level of general fitness, as well as intermediate and experienced yogi’s that enjoy a flowing sequenced class.
What does this class include?
Body, mind and spirit are weaved together through a progressive flow of active and standing postures that are synchronised and aided with the breath. You’ll move fluidly and lightly through a thoughtful and challenging sequence and finish with a soothing relaxation and well deserved relaxation (savasana).
Who is this for?
This class serves anybody at any level. It’s a perfect complement for those that practise stronger ‘yang’ style yoga and engage in high-impact sports as well as complete beginners. It’s an ideal class for those needing to unwind and de-stress.
What does this class include?
This is a nurturing, restorative, slow and mindful class where we hold postures for longer periods of time to enable a deep, therapeutic stretch of our connective tissues and ligaments. Using props such as bolsters, blocks and straps we feel supported and able to encourage space, opening and deep healing in both body and mind.
Who is this for?
Ideal for those wanting to improve strength and flexibility, increase energy levels and balance the nervous system in a class that’s less vigorous and challenging than Vinyasa Flow but has more flow than Hatha.
What does this class include?
This is a calmer, more meditative form of a Vinyasa Flow class with slower paced sequences where you can find space and breath between asanas (postures). You will cultivate conscious movement in gentle, rhythmical and energising sequences that focus on the breath, standing postures and sun salutations.
Who is this for?
For those that like a dynamic, structured sequence that stretches, strengthens and detoxifies body and mind. It is suitable for everyone, but especially for those that enjoy a strong practise and for those who like to take on a challenge!
What does this class include?
Ashtanga Yoga is a style of yoga handed down and popularised by K. Pattabhi Jois. It is often promoted as a modern-day form of classical Indian yoga. Ashtanga Yoga is based on set sequences of poses which are synchronized with the ‘Ujjayi’ breath (‘Victorious Breath’) which produces an internal heat that purifies the body, increases stamina and core strength and improves mental capacity and concentration.
