Yoga

We offer 9 types of Yoga; Vinyasa, Rocket, Yin, HATHA and vajrasati.

VinyasA FLOW

is a form of yoga where poses are linked together with the breath in a flowing sequence. There is no standard sequence in Vinyasa yoga (however the foundation is rooted in traditional ashtanga postures and usually warms up with repeated sun salutations) so the pace and intensity will all vary depending on the teacher. We have a gorgeous variety of vinyasa teachers and highly recommend giving them all a try so you can get an idea of whose style you like the best. We would suggest beginners attend hatha first to help establish the foundations needed to get the most out of vinyasa

Wake Up and Flow

An energising practice to get you breathing right and into your body first thing in the morning. Expect an inspiring, creative class that and prioritises how you feel in a posture rather than how you look. Suitable for all.

 

Dynamic Flow

can vary wildly depending on the teacher as there is a lot of creative licence involved. Carrianne teaches MOST OF our dynamiC FLOW and favours a layered flow building in intensity centred around functional movement patterns (movement for life). She CREATes and teaches a unique sequence every month which gives you time to become acquainted with the flow and really start to notice shifts in your body and mind. Yes it’s a challenging one, but there are still plenty of options for beginners

HATHA This is an excellent class to learn the foundations of yoga in a safe and supportive environment. Postures are held for around five deeps breaths to ensure proper alignment, and build strength and flexibility. Without the continuous flow, students are given more time to get in and out of the postures. The shapes themselves are no less challenging but the steadiness of the practice can make this a great class for beginners!

 

Rocket

is a style of yoga based on the Ashtanga sequence (Ashtanga, which has the same sequence every time). Sequencing still features sun salutations, standing asanas, seated postures, twists, and backbends, yet the approach is a lot more fluid and more fun. Breaking away from structure and order, in Rocket, you are encouraged to be playful.

 

Yin & Relax

usually consists of a series of long-held, passive floor poses that mainly work the lower part of the body – the hips, pelvis, inner thighs, lower spine. These areas are especially rich in connective tissues. The poses are held for up to five minutes, sometimes longer and almost always passive. During each hold, muscles are relaxed to avoid muscle spasm and release tension in the body which has built up over time through emotional stress, physical training and general day to day of London living. Beginner friendly

Yin to yang flow

Consider this a delicious yin/vinyasa sandwich. Rosa will start you off in long held, strong but soft stretches before guiding you into a soulful and spicy vinyasa flow to move and energise the body followed by a final layer of deep, soothing stretches and relaxing Sivasana to finish. Come down and set yourself up in the best way for a wonderful weekend

vajrasati yoga

combines the postures, breathing and meditation techniques of classical/modern postural yoga along with innovative explorations outside traditional postures from a conscious subtle and energetic alignment perspective. The classes are always suitable for all levels and won’t fail to integrate the newest student whilst providing a fresh perspective for experienced students.
