Every body, every level

Our yoga practices

  • Vinyasa

    Vinyasa is a dynamic, “Yang” style of yoga, in which you fluidly move from pose to pose through a varied sequence of asanas (postures), each linked together by conscious, steady breath and flowing Sun Salutations. In this practice you will smoothly transition through a thoughtfully designed series of asanas, progressively building physical strength, endurance and flexibility while also cultivating a quieter, more focused and present mind. Through this creative and occasionally challenging flow, you’ll prepare the body for more advanced postures such as deeper hip openers, expressive backbends and controlled inversions, all while learning how to move with control and ease. This practice is ideal for anyone seeking a more athletic, faster-paced class that still honours alignment, mindful breathing and a centred approach.

  • Hatha

    Hatha yoga is a slower-paced, mindful form of practice that emphasizes precision, alignment, stability, grounding, and the development of both strength and flexibility. A typical Hatha class involves holding postures for several breaths at a time, placing attention on the refinement of individual poses rather than rapid sequencing or continuous linking between postures. The emphasis is more on building strength and internal awareness than on fluid movement, and because poses are held for longer periods, the class can become quite challenging both physically and mentally. While Hatha yoga is often more accessible for beginners due to its measured pace and clear alignment cues, it remains a rewarding and suitable practice for students of all levels.

  • Yin

    Yin uses gravity together with your own body weight to gradually and mindfully expand the connective tissues. When practised regularly, Yin yoga gently improves flexibility, circulation, and the range of motion in the joints and surrounding ligaments. It also has beneficial effects on the internal organs and supports the immune system. Postures are typically held in a seated or lying position for up to five minutes, deeply stimulating connective tissues such as fascia, ligaments, the hips, spine, and joint structures throughout the body. These slow, sustained poses help you stretch and lengthen tissues over time while teaching you to breathe through discomfort, observe sensations, and sit with your thoughts. This is a very passive, meditative practice that is accessible and suitable for all levels.

  • Yin Yang

    Yin Yang blends two complementary styles of yoga into a single, harmonious practice — bringing together the deep benefits of passively holding restorative poses with the vitality of more dynamic sequences and standing postures. ‘Yin’ is inward-focused, slow, passive, cooling, and emphasizes long-held stretches that target connective tissue and encourage surrender. ‘Yang’ feels Hatha-like: external, active, dynamic, warming, and oriented toward strength and upward movement. The class offers a rare balance where you can be both physically challenged and deeply relaxed and lengthened. Sometimes we begin with Yin to soften and open; other times we start with Yang to build heat and stability. Either way, practicing both Yin and Yang helps increase the flow of your energy, leaving you with a stronger, more balanced, and more peaceful mind and body. This class welcomes all levels and can be adapted to suit individual needs.

  • Full Moon Yoga

    Full moon yoga is thoughtfully designed to complement the gentle, expansive energy of the full moon, and this does not imply a high‑energy practice. Because the moon’s added influence can make it easy to overreach and risk strain or injury, the sequence is intentionally calming, restorative and deeply mindful rather than vigorous. We practise Chandra Bhedana pranayama (the moon‑piercing or lunar breath) and move through Chandra Namaskar (the full moon salutation), a soothing, flowing sequence that honours and aligns with lunar energy. Ideal for quiet evenings or moments of fatigue, the practice uses slow, breath‑coordinated movements and gentle holds to cultivate intuition, creativity and inner balance. These accessible practices are suitable for all levels and welcome both beginners and experienced students seeking a softer, receptive practice.

  • Restorative

    Restorative yoga is a gentle, passive form of yoga that focuses on deep relaxation and careful, mild stretching, where poses are typically held for longer periods (around 10–15 minutes) and supported with props for comfort and alignment. It is a pure relax-and-release practice, designed to calm the nervous system and encourage rest. The many benefits of Restorative yoga include reduced stress and anxiety, improved breathing and respiration, increased joint and muscle flexibility, supported recovery from strain, deeper states of relaxation, and more restorative sleep. This practice is particularly helpful for people recovering from injury or illness, those under high stress, or anyone who simply wants to slow down, unwind, and restore balance. Restorative yoga is accessible to all levels. These classes take a seasonal pause during the colder months and recommence in spring.

“I believe in using yoga to help balance life’s struggles. It’s not about being really bendy, a vegan, or practising extreme postures. It’s about calming the mind, while strengthening the body, and feeling really good both physically and mentally. True wellness.”
