My classes are suitable for all levels. We'll focus on learning the yoga poses; emphasising flexibility and aligning your body safely and effectively. You will also learn breathing exercises, deep relaxation and meditation techniques.

I encourage the use of yoga props, that are easy to find at home. This ensures classes are inclusive, safe and accessible to as many students as possible and, no matter what level of ability or experience, there'll be yoga options for all.

Flow
Flow Yoga derives from Hatha Yoga, and uses controlled breathing to enable you to flow from one pose to the next in a sequence.
Learning Vinyasa sequences enables you to practice meditatively, as the breath is used to guide the body and the body used to guide the breath.
Yin Yoga
Yin Yoga was devised by Paulie Zink. It evolved from his Taoist Yoga in the 1970s.
In Yin Yoga various props are used to support the body. Yin Yoga involves holding poses for 1.5-7 minutes, allowing the fascia time to gently release.
The 3 tenets of yin yoga which we observe are: become still, work at our 'comfortable edge', and allow enough time.
Working in this way, without pain or strain, can be deeply relaxing, it can improve joint mobility and it can encourage space in the body tissues and joints.
​
Yin yoga is said to be particularly beneficial for those who are experiencing stress, anxiety, tiredness, illness or convalescence/recovering from injury.
