All our classes at the Bristol Yoga Centre are suitable for beginners and our teachers are very experienced at accommodating all levels of students. Our classes are small so that teachers can give you more help and attention. You’re welcome to come and try any of the styles.
Some of our classes are generally more dynamic like Ashtanga Yoga and others like therapeutic yoga is gentler form of practice. Yoga and Hatha yoga tends to be some where in the middle but rest be assured that you’ll be given modifications and alternative postures for more challenging sequences or postures.
If you’re a complete new to yoga or pilates, you may want to let your teacher know so that they can give you helpful tips and advice. Feel free to contact them when you’re booking. You can also check our frequently asked question before coming along.
We look forward to seeing you in the class!
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.
At Bristol Yoga Centre, we believe that classes should be accessible to everyone, so we offer low priced Community Classes. We no longer accept drop ins and all classes need to be booked in advance through our new booking system.

Now that we’re asking students to bring their own equipment where possible, we’ve decided to start selling a small selection of environmentally friendly equipment that you can purchase online or buy in the studio (exact money only).

We’re pleased to welcome a new yoga teacher, Shauni with the re-opening of our studio happening very soon. She will be teaching Dynamic Flow on Tuesdays from 12:30 - 1:30pm and Hatha Yoga on Wednesdays from 4:45 - 5:45pm. Both her classes will be available for in person and online streaming via Zoom.
Shauni has a deep passion for sports and movement practices and specialises in Hatha, Ashtanga, Yin and Aerial yoga. She is currently completing a Masters in Sport and Performance Psychology and working through a Certificate IV in Pilates Matwork and Reformer. She is passionate about yoga and looks forward to sharing her knowledge with you all!
We are really happy that we’ll soon be able to re-open our doors after nearly 6 months with no yoga in the centre. We can’t wait to have our students back to practice. Hopefully it will help provide some much needed restoration and balance.
We have a smart new online booking system that we’re using for all in person and online streaming classes. Head on over and see which class takes your fancy. There is now only 6 spaces available in the studio so please book early to confirm your spot.
You can also choose to stream online if that works best for you. We have a high quality webcam setup in the studio so you’ll be able to reconnect with your teacher and get some excellent instruction direct from the BYC!
I’m very excited to announce a new 9 day yoga retreat next year in Japan from 19 - 27th April 2021.
We will be staying for a night in Tokyo before travelling together to a beautiful Kiso Valley, where we will stay for further 7 nights in a luxury 5 star traditional Ryokan (traditional Japanese Inn with a natural spring spa and amazingly presented seasonal food). This is an all inclusive retreat that includes healthy delicious meals, transfers to the retreat, a full body massage, guided tours and hiking, calligraphy, chopsticks and soba making workshops.
This retreat is organised by Bluerise retreat, a small lovely yoga retreat company that I have worked with for my previous retreats in Chamonix and Sri Lanka. They’re known for offering stunning retreats around the world with great yoga, scenery and delicious food.

We’ve just uploaded a new blog post on the importance of mindfulness meditation in challenging times. There are lots of other interesting articles related to Yoga Asanas, Pranayama and Meditation so please feel free to check it out.
We will be posting different meditation techniques and tips of practice to help you get started. We currently also offer live online donation based mindfulness meditation and yoga class on Wednesday morning from 10-11am every week.

We will also explore relaxation methods to help you feel more settled and relaxed.
