Yoga, meaning 'union' or 'oneness', is an ancient Indian philosophy for
life dating back many thousands of years.
The many styles of yoga familiar in the West are all forms of Hatha yoga
whose practices commonly include postures (asanas), breathing techniques
(pranayama) and meditation.
The postures performed during a yoga practice involve gentle, dynamic movements following the wave of the breath, to mobilise the joints and create balance in the body. These may be combined with static poses aimed at realigning the body whilst improving strength and stamina. Many yoga postures also influence healing on a deeper level, stimulating and cleansing the internal bodily systems.
We learn to breathe correctly, utilising the full capacity of the lungs to encourage health and vitality. Final relaxation allows time for the body to absorb the benefits of our practice and for the mind to quieten, inducing a sense of calm and overall wellbeing.
Class numbers are limited to allow for more attention and individual guidance for each participant. We offer regular, ongoing courses which are suitable for all levels including complete beginners.
