Christine will be starting a new Ashtanga yoga from September:
Her inspirational class will be energetic and strengthening but it will be suitable for all levels including beginners! See our timetable for more information.
Jo Patrick will be starting weekly Sunday evening yoga class from 17:45 - 19:00 pm on 3rd September at the Bristol Yoga Centre. Her class is called Yoga for Sports and it will help you to build strength, move with greater ease and help prevent injury.
Jo will guide you through a dynamic yoga class, that will flow through various asanas (poses) to improve flexibility, fascial patterning, functional movement, core stability, strength and balance.
Classes work within normal range of motion and are particularly good if you are interested in improving your quality of movement, building your performance in sport and bulletproofing your body for the future.
6 week term is starting next week at the Bristol Yoga Centre. We have many different classes available from Restorative Yoga to Pregnancy Pilates class and many more. See here for our full timetable. In fact, a brand new Vinyasa Flow yoga with Joey is starting from Thursday 3rd August.
Signing up for the term is cheapest and best way to attend classes as it will encourage you to go regularly. We also offer two class swaps within a term so if you need to miss one or two classes, you can arrange to go to another class. You can also join the term mid way too and pay pro rata.
There are an option to do drop ins or purchase a multi class card at the studio. Click here for more information on fees.
We accept MoveGB on most of our classes too!

More about Doug
Doug's mother was his first teacher and she has been guiding him from early on in the ways of breath. He has very old and precious memories of her calming him down with 3 deep breathes into the belly.
In 2012, Doug met his Guru Yogi Ashokananda. He taught him how to be compassionate and bequeathed him with his yogic name; Dayananda. It means the bliss of mercy. Much of Doug's teaching style, tone, and knowledge come directly from his lineage.
With Prana Kriya, Himalayan Hatha, and meditation techniques, Doug continues the practice of how to be present, past and future. He has completed 500 specific teacher training hours with Yogi-ji and am a Senior Ashokananda School Teacher.
Yoga is a practice. Regular and constant. Like any other practice, the goal is not to become perfect but to have constant improvement. This sometimes comes in the form of acceptance and recognising our already perfect nature. Doug's classes are challenging and humorous. He likes to play and laugh and this comes through my teaching. He hope to see you in the studio and perhaps we can laugh together :)

It's best to book in advance and the best way to do this is to contact the teacher directly. The 7 week term costs £56 for daytime classes (£8 per class) and £63 for evening classes (£9 per class). We allow two class swaps per term when you sign up for the whole term. This way, if you need to miss a week or two, you can always make up for it by going to another class on our timetable. See here for terms and conditions.
Drop in costs £11 for daytime class and £12 for an evening class. We also have 5 class pack which costs £48 and £53 for day and evening respectively. The card is valid for two months and it's for use with the same teacher only. Daytime classes are usually an hour long and evening classes are an hour and fifteen minutes. There are concessions available on certain classes.
There are lots of other morning, lunch time and evening yoga classes running at the centre so visit here for more details.
Bristol Yoga Centre team are currently busy building the new website and creating a logo for the centre. I'm looking forward to sharing it with you soon. As usual, we are making it ourselves so bear with us (this is one of the reason why I'm getting some of my classes covered by other lovely yoga teachers).
I hope your enjoying spring :)
