New Afternoon Hatha Yoga class

New weekly Thursday Hatha Yoga class with Tracey from 20th September from 14:00 - 15:00pm. Tracey Stone has completed the British Wheel of Yoga Diploma for yoga teaching (500 hours) and the BWY Foundation Course in Yoga.

Yoga has been an invaluable guide to Tracey for supporting her through physical and spiritual development from attending her first class at the age of 14 and through life’s many fabulous challenges since. 

She teaches a breath led practice, beginning with a little time spent becoming aware of and connecting to its flow.  Tracey will encourage you to maintain this awareness as we move through a well organised series of asana (poses), with time to notice subtle changes in the quality of your mind and sensations in your body.

Weekly Prenatal Yoga and Pilates Class

We are starting a weekly prenatal Yoga and Pilates class on Mondays at 5-6pm at the Bristol Yoga Centre. This is a unique pregnancy class in which the positive benefits of both yoga and Pilates are combined to promote health and wellbeing.

Celia is a chartered physiotherapist with over 11 years experience and a special interest in women's health.  She undertook postgraduate Pilates training through the Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute, and then further training, with the same organisation, in pre and post natal Pilates. Celia is also a yoga teacher and undertook pregnancy yoga teacher training at The Yoga Campus in London.

Pilates targets the exact muscles and functions that can become problematic during
pregnancy and in the postnatal period, in a safe way. Yoga techniques, including breath and movement, aid relaxation and help maintain a healthy mind during this time of change.

We have a new Monday evening Yin yoga class starting next Monday from 21st May 2018. This class is suitable for all levels of experience. Come and restore your body's energetic balance and find a greater sense of calm through Yin Yoga.

Yin Yoga classes are designed with specialised poses that are held for longer periods of time,  working your ligaments, joints, bones and deep networks of fascia within the body. Through a Yin practice we aim to balance the active, external and dynamic Yang activities of daily life with a more internal, grounding and calming practice, surrendering to stillness. Yin Yoga helps to improve flexibility, circulation and joint mobility as well as reducing stress and anxiety. 

Every Monday from 7:30 - 8:30pm. We accept MoveGB students! Contact Katie for more information.
