FLOW/VINYASA YOGA
Vinyasa yoga is a dynamic, flowing style of practice built around a sequence. Students move smoothly from one posture to the next, guided by the rhythm of their breath. Breath becomes the anchor of the practice, supporting focus, stability, and ease. Classes may also include simple breathwork and short meditations to help students arrive, settle, and integrate the experience.
Benefits
Moving energy, increasing flexibility/strength and creating balance in the body.
YIN YOGA
Yin yoga is a slow, floor‑based practice where poses are typically held for 3–5 minutes. By settling into stillness and allowing time for the body to soften, this style of yoga gently targets the deeper layers of the muscles and connective tissues. The long holds encourage physical release, while the quiet, meditative pace helps calm the mind and create a sense of spaciousness and ease.
Benefits
Helps students to slow down, can release tension and stress in the body/mind, can help to improve energy levels and improve flexibility.
RESTORATIVE YOGA
Restorative yoga offers a chance to pause. It’s a restful, nurturing practice where the body is supported by props so you can settle into long, comfortable holds — usually 5 to 7 minutes per pose. There’s no stretching to achieve and nothing to push toward. Instead, the shapes encourage deep release, quietening the mind and soothing the nervous system. It’s an invitation to soften, breathe, and be held.
Benefits
Mindfulness practice and brings the nervous system back into a rest and digest state.

Private Yoga Class
If you enjoy the energy of group classes but feel ready to explore your practice more deeply, I’d love to guide you through a personalised 1:1 yoga session.
The benefits of having individual classes are numerous. They allow you to:
-

-
modify poses to suit any specific health needs
-
work around your schedule
-
enjoy extra support
-
tailor classes to meet your individual needs (and these may change with every
class as you progress or want to concentrate on different areas of your
practice) -
improve strength and flexibility around particular poses or sequences
-
seek guidance on self-care
-
discover ways to improve your mental wellbeing
Please get in touch if you’d like to learn more about booking a 1:1 private yoga class.
