ON OFFER

The Yoga Club offers four main kinds of classes plus regular workshops that focus on specific elements of our bodies and well-being.

Also available is massage therapy for those in need of muscle conditioning and recovery. Or in today's day and age, you might just need help to counteract those everyday stresses and relax tight muscle tissues and boost circulation.

---

VINYASA FLOW ​

A dynamic, physical style of yoga, which links movement with breath and awareness. Although there is plenty of opportunity to build strength, stamina and physical fitness in these classes there is an equal focus on quieting the mind, breathing and working to the most appropriate level for your own wellbeing on any given day. This creates a well-rounded yoga practice that encourages strength, flexibility, a healthy mind body and spirit.
​

FOUNDATIONS  ​

A huge focus on alignment, breaking down postures, transitions and all to do with yoga. Everyone can benefit from going over the basics so don't be shy - all levels welcome.
​

YOGA BASICS

A class designed to learn the very basics of yoga and completely appropriate for people with injuries or who are recovering from operations, are kick starting their health and fitness journey or are closer towards the retired stage of life. ​
​​

RESTORE

​This is a slower paced class than the vinyasa flow, although 100% beginner friendly it offers a lot for the more experienced. Think gentle movement combined with more restful postures.

​A Restore class is an hour-long blissful session of gently creating space from the inside of the body whilst letting go of all the rush, busyness and tension in our lives. Each class ends with a short-guided meditation.

THE YOGA CLUB FAQ

Q. I've never done yoga before, what class should I come to?

A. We love beginners and you are most welcome to come to any of the classes on the timetable. If you are unsure of coming to a general class you have two options.

1. Beginner workshops are regularly held; please contact us to see the dates for the next event.
2. A beginner class is held on a Tuesday evening at 5.45pm. This class is specifically tailored for beginners and breaks everything down to the nitty gritty basics. You may wish to take this for your first term to get an idea of how the whole Vinyasa Flow thing rolls or if you enjoy the focus on alignment feel free to take this as a regular class.

​

Q. Do I need to have my own yoga mat?

A. Feel free to bring your own yoga mat, but if you don't have one, there are yoga mats available for you to borrow. If you decide that yoga is your thing it is much nicer to have a mat of your own. We can recommend good mats to purchase.
​

Q. What do I wear?

A. Wear comfortable clothing that isn’t too baggy. The kind of ‘work out’ gear you would wear to the gym or going out for a walk
​

Q. Is there anything else I should do to prepare for class?

A. Try not to eat anything too heavy a few hours before your class, bring water with you and have some before you arrive to stay hydrated.
​

Q. I have more questions, who can I ask?

A. We pride ourselves on being approachable, please feel free to ask us about anything yoga and we will do our very best to help you out with the answers.
