Yoga as Embodiment​

This class is inspired by my favourite poem from Rumi, "The Guest House." You will need 2 balls, 2 blocks and a blanket. We open the hips and give the body space to be as it is.

In this class, we will use props and movements to wake up the muscles and energy in your upper back. We start lying on a blanket, then blocks, some side lying movements, table and building to a dolphin before we come back to the floor. A really nice slow paced class.

Physically, we focus on the hamstrings and emotionally we aim to spot the difference between feelings and thoughts. We start on the back, do some lunges, some seated poses and end on the back to spot the difference in the legs. You'll need a strap, 2 blocks and a blanket. I really enjoyed this class.

A class for when you just need to move and are short on time. I felt great after this class. We shake, do some Sun Salutes and finish with stretching out on the floor. You need a strap and a bolster.

You will need balls for this class (if you don't have them, you can fast forward 7 minutes to the yin practice). This is a special yin class, in which you will focus on how you feel and imagine cultivating the state you wish to feel. We do some seated forward folds and back bends. You need a bolster, balls, blocks and blanket.

We twist a lot in this class, with the intention to release anything that's bound up. We start on the back and gradually make our way to some twisted lunges and some balance for a final challenge.

The title says it all. We will move, but very slowly, we will use the breath, slowly and do some self-massage, with some yin poses scattered throughout. You'll need 2 blocks, some tennis balls and a blanket.

We focus on the upper back and shoulders in this class. You will need two blocks, two tennis balls and a blanket.

Focusing on opening the lower body, we move and then spend time in more stretching poses. You are encouraged to focus on the feeling of stretch to keep you grounded and calm.

A lovely class filled with movement and stillness. We start standing, move through some Sun Salutes, then a child pose and some more standing poses, before we come back to the floor for some yin hip opening. A very calming and quiet class.

This yin class is all about the bladder and kidney meridian. These meridians like to feel calm. We will do some gentle movement and then stretch the body to wake up these meridians, while slowing down the exhale.

Enjoy this heart opening practice, where we open the chest and bring all our attention, including breath, to the heart. You will need a blanket or a large towel.
