Yoga Styles

Here it is...

Our yoga is intended to be challenging but the beauty is that each person can adapt it to suit his or her own body. Each body will take the poses differently. Simply be fully present in your practice, keep an open mind; you will come to know what your body needs on that day.

Each of the styles we offer is unique in its own way. Some of our students love to change between the different styles, others have their favourite that they like to stick to. Experiment with what works for you!

Our Yin yoga is intended to provide the perfect complement to the more yang styles of the Power Vinyasa and Hot.

Feel free to come to any class on the schedule; all our classes are beginner friendly.

SWEAT HOT

Our Hot classes are based on the classic 90 minute sequence of 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises ( ‘the 26 and 2’), known as Bikram Yoga.

The series is designed to work your whole body from the inside out. The postures are simple but challenging. Work at your own level of intensity.

For anyone who is sick or injured this practice is the first place we encourage you to come. This style is very therapeutic.

Each class follows the same sequence of postures allowing you to concentrate on developing alignment and form as you come to understand and appreciate your body and Yourself as never before.

Choose from either the 60 minute or 90 minute duration. For beginners, don’t be put off by the slightly longer class as this can be just what you need to grow in your understanding of the postures.

For our Hot classes, the room is heated to a balmy 38 degrees.

SWEAT VINYASA

Power Vinyasa has been described as “the perfect blend of sweat and serenity”. In this style of yoga, the poses are linked together by connective momentum or flow.

The practice starts with several rounds of sun salutations, getting the blood pumping and breath flowing, and generating internal heat to melt away tension.

We then move into a variety of other postures designed to increase vital energy, and provide a sense of groundedness and balance. Move through the postures with a steady, rhythmic breath, matching your breath to the movement. As you develop your proficiency in this practice, you will find that you move out of your head and into your body, cultivating a meditative frame of mind.

For our Power Vinyasa classes we heat the room to around a cosy 32 degrees.
