Yoga for Beginners - 4 class series No one likes to feel like a bull in a china shop so the Beginners Classes are built on the foundations. The 4 classes are repeated and will focus on learning key poses and transitions for moving around the mat safely for your body. Over the 4 classes we will develop an awareness of harnessing the breath in a gentle flow, which is put together in week 4. While the sequence is simple, application of correct muscle groups and using safe alignment practices will bring with it challenges for new yogi's and those who want to build on their awareness in a simple uncomplicated practice. Guaranteed to get you hooked on Yoga, if you aren't already! 
Dynamic Flow with Julie Wednesday 6am Julie combines her love of yoga and strong physical exercise in a challenging and rewarding sequence. Each class is different focusing on key muscle groups to build strength and connection.
Multi-Level Yoga Classes These classes are a real mix of strong flowing sequences that build strength, balance and flexibility. Harnessing the breath to enhance the practice is an important aspect of all Yoga. Challenging poses are introduced with lots of options to modify and develop the foundation skills to master try - and sometimes succeed or let them go as "not for me". Either way we are always working towards to developing awareness and strength. 
Yin Yoga - Monday & Thursdays
Yin Yoga is just what we need to tune in, breath and relax while our bodies melt. Yin is different to vinyasa and restorative yoga - we hold poses for a longer time and hold the structure, allowing joints and ligaments and little tense places to unwind and unravel. This popular class is always booked out. Don't miss out, book and prepay through Punchpass. |
Feature Classes
Yin Yang Flow
Yin Yang Yoga blends two styles of yoga into one practice – bringing together the benefits of passively holding yoga poses with more dynamic sequences and standing postures. Yin is more internal, passive, cooling and downward. Yang is more external, dynamic, warming and upward. When these terms are applied in yoga, Yin Yoga is a slower practice where poses are passively held for longer. It works on the deep, dense (Yin) connective tissues and joints in the body. Yang Yoga, in contrast, refers to a more active practice. This works on the (Yang) muscles and blood flow, building strength, stamina and flexibility. For a balanced yoga practice, we need both Yang and Yin elements. Or try practising both Yin and Yang aspects in the same class. 
Yin Yoga
Feature Class - Once per moth This Feature Class is a 2 hour sequence designed to mobilise and free up all areas of the body. Yin yoga is a practice of stillness, which works deeper into the connective tissues and ligaments for a stretch that goes beyond the muscles that we generally notice in an asana practice. Its a practice of patience and control as we learn to surrender and let go, harnessing the breath, mind and body connection to do so. Poses are held for up to 10 minutes. 
Restorative Yoga Feature Class - Once per month Some yoga poses taste a little bit sweeter than others and these are definitely the restorative postures. These soothing and well-supported poses offer us the opportunity to linger quietly for a few moments and savour the simple sweetness of life. We start out with a few minutes of gently movement that will stretch and warm the muscles before settling into the restorative practice. Stillness gives your body a chance to shed its restlessness and busy-ness allowing the mind to create space in the body for relaxation. 
Chair Yoga In chair yoga poses are performed either seated or using the chair for assistance. Anyone can practice it and a series can be built for you around your own special needs. Those with chronic conditions, weight issues, past injuries or disabilities can increase their range of motion and experience benefits from this practice.
