A class that builds your yoga practice on the foundations. Ease yourself into the week with mindful movement with a few challenges.

There are 3 classes per week, Tuesday & Wednesday at 7.15pm & Saturday 10.30am. One hour 15 mins of yoga including all the elements & building towards & trying some of the harder poses. Classes include breath work (pranayama), physical postures (asana) linked together, relaxation & meditation.

There are 2 classes per week, Monday at 7.15pm & Saturday 9am. One hour 15 mins of yoga & some of the harder poses. Monday has more of a focus on arm balances & Saturday is more about inversions: handstand, headstands & forearms stand. Classes include pranayama, asana, relaxation & meditation. These classes will test your strength, tone & balance, develop mind & body connection & build your yoga practice so you can take on the harder poses.

In Yin Yoga we hold the poses for 3-5 minutes creating a meditational practice that is a slow unraveling of thoughts & fascia, a letting go both physically & mentally. The class includes a Yoga Nidra guided relaxation that works physically & mentally to relax you and take you into a state somewhere between daydream & sleep. Entering this state of neuroplasticity is beneficial for stress relief, creativity & positive habit formations. Sunday 6pm.

Starting this September: Yoga & Life Drawing sessions! I will be partnering with various artists to offer a 4 hour session, warm up with 30 minutes of yoga then move to life drawing. In pairs you will take turns to draw & to pose, your teachers will guide you & demonstrate how to draw figures & how to hold poses for longer; 30 sec, 1, 2 & 5 min sketches build towards a final piece. Holding the poses is also an interesting experience.

Three hours to explore arm balances & inversions. I encourage you to explore these harder poses using your strength, balance, centre of gravity & good technique. There are so many arm balances & variations to try, some will work better in your body than others, this workshop will give you time to build your skills. We warm up thoroughly & explore the poses through a longer vinyasa class with time for meditation & reflection.

Indulge your love of yoga with a full day retreat! We begin with tea & welcome then an astanga style practice with adjustments & assists. It is followed by a yoga flow & workshop with any harder poses suggested by you. We will eat a delicious sharing plate Vegetarian lunch cooked by @whatscookingNick so we can connect. The afternoon session will begin with MFR, moving to Yin & Yoga Nidra to leave you fully reset & relaxed for the week ahead. Please register interest!

When the studio is not booked up during the daytime with a photo shoot, I offer a lunchtime ‘pop up’ class on a Friday It seems to be a great time of the week to slip away from your desk and ease into a weekend vibe. Dates are varied, I let you know in the email newsletters each week the class is on, the class finishes super punctually so you can get back to work!

I am available to teach you privately, in the studio at a time to suit us both. 1:1’s can be helpful for many reasons; pregnancy & post pregnancy, building your familiarity with yoga, injury specific practices, breaking down & focusing on the harder poses or just finding a time that suits you. Email helen@yogabreathwork.co.uk to book.
