Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga is a style of yoga codified and popularized by K. Pattabhi Jois during the 20th century which is often promoted as a modern-day form of classical Indian yoga.
You'll be guided through a modified sequence based on the Primary Series sequence of postures practiced and taught by the late K. Pattabhi Jois at a slower pace, and with some instruction and demonstration.
Generally we will cover the first half of the Primary Series sequence before enjoying a very well deserved relaxation but may sometimes explore the trickier postures if time and energy allow.
Ashtanga Yoga combines a series of traditional yoga postures that you’ll probably recognise with fluid movements and a focus on breathing regularly and deeply. It’s a physically demanding sequence designed to create heat and maximise energy flow, improve flexibility, strengthen the body, increase circulation and get the heart and lungs working too.
Healing and balancing the physical body like this helps bring about good health and vitality, a clear mind and a calm approach to life’s daily obstacles.
This class is suitable for those with some experience of yoga but new to Ashtanga, for those with some Ashtanga experience who enjoy more instruction or for beginners with a good level of fitness and who are willing to give it a go!

I'll be running another juicy hip opening masterclass. I love working into the hips - we hold so much tension in this area from sitting a lot, poor posture or injury. It's also the place we store our emotions so it's good to get moving deep into this area to release tension and stagnant energy.
I'll be combining some gentle flow and longer held yin postures to work deep into the hips - oiling the joints to allow you to move more freely. The class will finish with a lovely yoga nidra leaving you relaxed and restored.

Rest and restore with an introduction into restorative yoga followed by a calming and replenishing relaxation. Life is increasingly busy and our minds are often cluttered, overwhelmed and lacking in clarity and tranquility. Restorative yoga is a calming hug for the overstimulated body and mind, creating peace and serenity within. It gives us the opportunity to explore our body seeking out tensions.
A deep connection with our breath and long supported postures help the body relax feeling comfortable, confident and safe. Our bodies start to unfold with no force, rushing or striving. We then begin to explore what happens we allow our tension to soften and naturally release what our bodies habitually hold. Restorative yoga is a gentle yet mindful practice, with the use of props restorative yoga allows you to completely surrender and relax into an asana. In a loving yet nurturing way. The parasympathetic nervous system is stimulated promoting relaxation, renewal And rejuvenation. If we offer the body patience, kindness and surrender to the present moment it will respond in a more positive way. The more we surrender the easier things flow. Restorative Yoga benefits Enhances flexibility Deeply relaxes the body Stills the mind Improves the capacity for healing and balancing Balances the nervous system Boosts the immune system Enhances mood state Develops qualities of compassion and understanding towards others and self.
