We have classes to suit all abilities. Our beginner classes are aimed at those

suitable for all levels. If you are unsure about what level you are at, or want to discuss

please get in touch and we can answer your questions.
All our classes are an hour and a half.
Ashtanga
Developed by the late Pattabhi Jois, Ashtanga is a vigorous style of yoga that incorporates set sequences or series of postures where the breath is linked with movement. There are six levels of sequences or series in Ashtanga yoga. The Ashtanga system emphasizes the Eight Limbs of Yoga as outlined in the Yoga Sutras, which Malaspina says serves as practices for living a meaningful life. This system inspires followers to adopt a daily practice of yoga. The energetic nature of all of the series leads to a cleansing of the body through heat, which enhances circulation, improves joint pain, carries impurities away from the body, and builds strength.
Hatha
The Sanskrit term "hatha" is an umbrella term for all physical postures of yoga. In the West, hatha yoga simply refers to all the other styles of yoga (ashtanga, Iyengar, etc.) that are grounded in a physical practice. However, there are other branches of yoga such as kriya, raja, and karma yoga that are separate from the physical-based yoga practice. Hatha yoga can help reduce aniexty and improve mental health, improve and support balance and improve overall fitness. Our hatha class is a combination of centering excerises, mediatation and finding alignment through breath, balance and movement.
Restorative
Restorative yoga focuses on winding down after a long day and relaxing your mind. At its core, this style focuses on body relaxation. Restorative yoga also helps to cleanse and free your mind. Restorative yoga can help improve quality of sleep, manage aniexty and mental health and alleviate stress. It is great to let go of a stressful day or relaxing and preparing for a busy day ahead, and ensuring you make time for yourself. Our restorative yoga class, we focus of set postures, breathwork and stillness. If props are required, we have some at the studio.

All our classes are £10 each. We offer a drop-in style for our classes. No need to book, just turn up on the day and pay when you arrive. We accept card, cash or bank transfer.
