CLASSES
YOGA
IYENGAR/ ALIGN
This class is designed for people who want to focus on alignment and basic principles. The focus is on breaking down postures and giving explanations of key alignments to ensure safety, on going health and the full benefits of yoga. The practice will flow through a sequence of postures that will be held a little longer than a traditional flow class.
This allows students to become more aware of their body alignment. Options to modify postures will also be a focus in these classes, to allow for a gradual build up to more advanced poses. Align classes create endurance and build muscle, whilst teaching the foundations of traditional yoga practice.
ASHTANGA
Ashtanga yoga is a dynamic, flowing style that connects the movement of the body with the breath. It is a very dynamic and athletic form of hatha yoga, with a fixed order of postures. The flowing movements between postures is with a focus on energy and breath. While it is a very physical practice, it also promotes mental clarity and inner peace.
Ashtanga yoga is considered a vigorous, orderly practice and, as such, is more suited to students who want a dynamic and rigorous yoga practice. Ashtanga means “eight-limbed” in Sanskrit. It was Sri K. Pattabhi’s belief that the asana "limb" of yoga must be practiced before the others could be mastered. The practice was developed in Mysore by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois and T. Krishnamacharya in the 20th century.
FLOW/
VINYASA
Flow yoga classes tend to be a mixture of meditation, breath-work and energizing movement. Depending on the teacher, flow yoga classes can either be a strong physical challenge, or slow, gentle and relaxing. They usually begin with gentler movements to warm up the body, then move into progressively more challenging flowing sequences.
These may include standing poses, balances, inversions and peak poses. The classes tend to end with slower, deeper stretches, and often floor-based asana practice. Flow yoga has no set sequence of poses, as it is not confined to any particular tradition or lineage. As such, yoga teachers tend to get creative with sequencing, either targeting certain areas of the body, focusing on different themes or helping to build certain abilities, such as strength, flexibility or balance.
HATHA/
PRANA
Hatha translates to force. Hatha yoga is about balancing the body and mind. ‘Ha’ represents the esoteric sun, and ‘tha’ is the moon. The practice of Hatha yoga aims to join and balance these two energies. A Hatha class involve a set of physical postures and breathing techniques.These are typically practised more slowly and with more static posture holds than a Vinyasa flow or Ashtanga class.
​
Hatha Yoga offers a multitude of benefits for physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. Through the practice of asanas, it enhances flexibility, strength, and balance. Incorporating breath control techniques (Pranayama) improves respiratory function and vitality.
RESTORATIVE
Restorative yoga is a slow, meditative form of yoga designed to release tension passively, without stretching. Props are used to support the body totally, and poses are held for a long time, sometimes up to 10 minutes. By allowing time for longer poses and deeper breathing, restorative yoga helps elicit the relaxation response and allows for passive healing.
It the best type of yoga for seniors or students of all fitness and ability levels, who want to cultivate relaxation and a strong and healthy body without the joint stress that comes from other activities like weightlifting or jogging.
