Yoga Classes

Hatha Yoga
Hatha is a potent alignment-oriented practice that emphasises alignment and breath while entering, holding, and leaving the posture. It uses postures and stretches in combination with the breath while holding the poses to develop flexibility and relaxation.
This style encourages proper alignment of the body, often includes breathing and meditation techniques to bring balance, strength, and calmness to the practitioner.
Hatha yoga is excellent  for students who appreciate longer holds in individual postures and prefer a slower and more meditative approach to practice.

Vinyasa Yoga
Vinyasa Yoga, also known as "dance of the breath" is a fluid, dynamic and harmonious style that emphasises the coordination between breath and movement. The practitioner learns how to flow from one posture to another through dynamic transitions. Peculiarity of the style is the execution of sequences of postures that change every class, in order to focus on different aspects of the practice.
The postures are always linked each another by movement and are synchronised with the breath. In this way a continuous flow of asanas is created which allows the balanced alignment of all parts of the body and the achievement of a high degree of mental concentration.


Ashtanga Yoga
In this class the teacher leads the students through part of the primary series of the astanga yoga system – attentively, slowly and with focus.
Students will practice a specific sequence of poses designed to stretch, strengthen and detoxify the body.  This classical form of yoga, helps build strength, flexibility, endurance, and stillness of the mind. As with all Ashtanga classes, Tristhāna (the three focal points) are emphasised throughout the practice, being - breath, bandha (internal locks) and dristi (gaze).

Yin Yoga 
Yin Yoga invites you to slow down and create space for stillness while nourishing joints, ligaments, tendons and fascia. Energetically, Yin yoga strengthens the flow of prana (life force), maintains the health of the meridian system of the body and as an additional bonus contributes to the mindfulness necessary for a successful meditation practice This slower paced class with long held passive poses will have you on the floor most of the time, using as many props needed to create as little effort while holding poses. Accessible to all levels and great for those looking to improve joint mobility and mental focus.

The hammock draws us deep into the body, its strong supportive contact helps us to be present and enjoy the moment.
