Ashtanga yoga
Aimed at all levels: One hour led practice (or up to 1 hour 15 minutes Mysore)
Beginners will be led through a sequence of poses starting with Sun Salutations to warm up, standing poses and then seated poses.
If you are familiar with the primary series you may go at your own pace.
These classes involve hands on adjustments and individual assistance throughout. Please indicate at the beginning of class if you would not like hands on adjustments.
Ashtanga is energetic, synchronising breath with movement - a form of moving meditation.
Yin yoga
One hour class
Yin yoga is the perfect compliment to Ashtanga and Vinyasa styles as it is the complete opposite! Slow moving, staying in each pose for some time, remaining still and just observing the sensations in your body. A great opportunity to slow down.
The evening Yin class starts with breathing exercises to calm the mind, followed by restorative yoga poses where the body is supported to allow the deep connective tissue and fascia to stretch and release. By closing the eyes and moving slowly into each pose and remaining there for sometime, then slowly moving out of each pose, the mind turns inward to feel a deep stillness that nourishes on all levels.
Yin is the perfect end to your busy day, and classes are suitable for all levels.
Yin Flow yoga
One hour class
Yin Flow yoga combines slow transitions with gentle Yin poses to have you feeling invigorated and alive, yet peaceful and rested. This style of yoga is suitable for all levels, ages, capabilities and limitations. We welcome everyone to this class.
Ease through your week by starting with a Yin Flow yoga session.
Bring your Baby yoga
One hour class
Yoga is for the mums/dads/caregivers, and the kiddies stay in the room with us, hanging out, hanging off you, playing with toys, eating snacks on our picnic mat. Please bring your child's own snacks.
It’s a great way to get some mindful movement into your day. And to connect with a great bunch of other mums (dads welcome too).
Yoga is for everyone!
Kundalini yoga
75 minute class
In these classes you will learn the fundamentals of Kundalini Yoga - breath patterns (pranayama), basic asana (postures), mantras (sound/chanting), use of the bandhas (body locks) and meditation. Kundalini Yoga is called the Yoga of Awareness, bringing balance to the body, mind, and soul. The practice stimulates the glandular system, strengthens the nervous system, expands lung capacity, purifies the blood, brings energy flow, achieving balance, mental clarity, and physical well-being.
Through energising physical practices with deep meditations and chants, you will be guided to acquire knowledge to anchor, enhance and deepen your yoga practice. We will help you do the best you can do to become the best you can be, developing awareness and unveiling your true self.
No previous yoga experience is required.
