Hatha Flow

This hatha based class utilizes the concept of vinyasa (flow) as the basis to build up strength slowly over time to increase the depth of practice for the participant. With several modifications available, this class encourages you to attend two times per week to literally practice being with challenges. The class is designed to assist you in sitting with challenge and observing how your mind reacts. Simply we are practicing/building capacity to witness the mind and its reactions as they are. Moving from the premise that the self cannot be broken, and resisting the capitalist notion that we must always be improving ourselves – this class asks us to sit with the challenge – exactly as it is. This will not change your life, it will not change you, nor do you need to be changed. We encourage you to be as you are – with some   fun, building your capacity to witness the habit patterning of the mind without wanting it to change.  This strength-flow class is geared toward slow and steady developments for the practitioner in an irreverent atmosphere.

Hatha & Yoga Nidra

Join us for a deeply harmonious practice that embodies an array of asanas to awaken and center the body and mind followed by a guided meditation called Yoga Nidra. Yoga Nidra induces complete physical, mental, and emotional relaxation. Within this peaceful state, the mind remains awake to explore different states of consciousness, while stimulating rejuvenation, increasing inner strength, shifting limited thinking patterns, awakening creativity, and counteracting stress. 

Students of all experience levels are welcome.

Happy Hips

This class is designed to target those tight areas in the hips and leave you feeling relaxed and balanced.

Our hips affect the way we move, sit, and lie down. They support us in all our activities, so we try and bring some harmony into them. There will be a focus on both strength and flexibility to help keep those hips supple and strong. 

This class moves through a variety of movements suitable for everyone and will leave you feeling empowered and craving more.

Gentle Yoga

Gentle yoga is perfect for people who want to try yoga for the first time or for those who are looking for a softer approach to their practice. In this class we will combine gentle yoga poses with breathing exercises and restorative postures to stretch and strengthen the body, reduce stress and calm the mind. Everybody is welcome to practice yoga in this supportive environment. No yoga experience is required.

Yin Yoga

Known as the quiet practice, Yin Yoga targets the connective tissues of the hips, pelvis and lower spine. Yin postures are held for three to five minutes which gives the body an opportunity to open and release tension from deeper tissues. This form of yoga is a great complement to more dynamic and active practices, and is a great aid for learning to sit in meditation.

The practice works with our energy body, clearing blockages in nadis (meridians) and increasing the flow of prana or chi, improving the health of our organs as well as increasing our energy and promoting a general sense of wellbeing.

Yin Yoga is suitable for most levels of students.

Full Body Flow

Release tension and feel refreshed in this class for all bodies. The focus of the practice will be on breath and movement, creating a flow of postures that enhance flexibility and strength.

Beginner Ashtanga Yoga

In this class, you will learn the fundamentals of Ashtanga, including the breath connected to movement (known as vinyasa) and many of the primary series postures. All levels are welcome whether you are a new or existing Ashtanga practitioner looking to cultivate a deeper understanding of this practice or return to the basics. 

What is Ashtanga Yoga

Ashtanga yoga is a dynamic, flowing style that connects the movement of the body with the breath. The method stresses the importance of daily practice of a set series of movements. There are six series of Ashtanga yoga sequences, which the student progresses through at their own pace.


key principles that underlie the practice of Ashtanga yoga:

  • Breath: Ujjayi breath is the breath used in the practice. Each posture is held for five breaths (Closing sequence is more).

  • Drishti: Drishtis refers to the point of gaze. Each posture has a recommended point of gaze.

  • Vinyasa: A vinyasa is a series of movements connected by breath. In this series it is one breath per-movement.

  • Bandhas: The practice should be carried out with the bandhas, or "body locks," engaged in order to ensure that the breath is also correct.

  • Daily practice: A six-days-per-week practice is encouraged, with Saturday as the rest day. The days of the full and new moon should also be taken as rest days.

Pre-Registered Class Sessions

MUM & BABY

Welcome back to your mat Mamas! Take this time to reconnect with your body & share your love of yoga with your new little one. This is a hatha based yoga class for all levels. This class is intended for Mamas at 6 week or more postpartum & little ones up to crawling.

Prenatal Yoga

Through the practice of prenatal yoga, expectant moms can develop strength, stamina and stability while becoming aware of how the practice needs to be modified for their changing bodies. Time is devoted to cultivating awareness of the breath and to what’s going on within the body, especially the belly. With this connection we turn inwards to cultivate internal resources we will draw on during labour and birth. Through a variety of postures, we explore the difference between discomfort, stretching and pain and discover ways to relax through it all.

Trauma Informed Yoga

Traumatic experiences can turn into stored patterns of physical and emotional pain, leading to a loss of connection to one’s body. Trauma informed yoga is a process designed to help individuals achieve healing by rediscovering a sense of peace and safety in their body.

A substantial amount of research supports the effectiveness of a regular yoga practice for decreasing the symptoms of trauma. Jeremy Bell, Registered Psychologist and Certified Yoga Instructor, will blend elements from both psychological and yogic practices to help participants develop their own personalized toolbox for self-healing.

Participants will be guided through a series of exercises designed to promote mindful exploration while emphasizing safety and choice. This class is opened to anyone interested in learning and experiencing trauma informed yoga. No previous yoga experience is required.

Please note that this is a registered class only.
