New Vinyasa Flow Yoga

New weekly lunchtime Vinyasa Flow Yoga with Alice starting from 1:00 - 2:00pm on Wednesday 12th January 2022.

Alice has been practicing yoga since 2011 and is an accredited yoga teacher and yoga therapist, having completed over 900 hours of training. Alice discovered yoga in her early 20s and was immediately attracted to the physicality of asana, which allowed her to cultivate a sense of appreciation and acceptance of her body.

Alice believes yoga is for everybody and this is reflected in her teaching through the use of permissive language, props and offering options and variations. Alice always shares a variety of yogic tools in order for you to enjoy a well rounded practice. She encourages her students to work mindfully by guiding you towards a deeper listening and understanding of yourself.

Suitable for all levels of students including beginners.

New Teacher: Lynne Fugard

Lynne Fugard will be taking over Wednesday lunchtime class 12-1pm from 9th September.

This is an uplifting lunchtime flow to ease into the body, stimulate the nervous system, deepen the breath, and focus the mind. Each week, we explore a joyful, creative sequence of movements that spiral through the body’s full range of motion with grace, ease, intention and curiosity.

Lynne enjoys practising and has completed extensive training in vinyasa, mandala, rocket, mindfulness meditation, and yin yoga, and brings aspects of all of these styles to her classes.

New Women's Yoga on Monday Night

We are introducing a Women's Only Yoga class to create a space where women can flow in the presence of other women to increase their physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing.

The class will guide you on an inner journey to ignite your intuition and a deeper awareness of your body mind and soul. Incorporating aromatherapy and massage, this nurturing Vinyasa flow yoga class will encompass all the benefits that yoga can bring; clarity, emotional expression, calmer mind, better sleep, a stronger mind and body and overall compassion for yourself and others.

This weekly class will be open to all those who identify as women and is suitable for all levels from beginner to advanced. Starting 7:30 - 8:45pm on Monday 30th March 2020 with Amanda.

Amanda is a yoga teacher and a holistic healer, specialising in releasing stale, stuck or static emotions from the body using sound, breath and movement. She also teaches Vinyasa Flow Yoga on Wednesday evening at 7:30 - 8:30pm which is opened to everyone.
