Yoga in Wimbledon

Hatha Yoga is the umbrella term for a physical yoga practice. Learn the foundation to any style of yoga. Work on finding balance within a yoga practice between strengthening and mobilising poses, active and passive practices, and faster and slower sequences. 

Monday evening is a true beginners practice. Sunday is a mixed level practice. 

Start your practice in a welcoming, non competitive environment, whatever your ability, flexibility or strength. Great for beginners or those who prefer a gentle practice. This is traditional practice but flow may have a modern weave.

Monday 6pm - Saturday 11:45 (Hatha flow) - Sundays 11:00am

Be guided on the best alignment for your body within the traditional yoga poses. Learn about your muscles, joint positions and breath. Practices such as how your feet stabilise you, how to protect your knees or free your neck. Build your awareness for a better practice in any style of yoga. Good for beginners or anyone who would like more detailed instruction on their anatomy and how to progress. This is a modern practice based on the latest in anatomy.

Thursday 10:00am - Friday 12:15pm

Focus on the mobility, strength and breath work you may need for more challenging poses or in fact any exercise. It is a strong, movement based practice designed to build strength that truly supports you. Both on and off the mat. Expect repetitions and fun. It's a great class for those intimidated by some poses. For those who want to step it up a notch. This is a modern practice to help people to adapt to a more challenging physical practice.

Mondays 7:30pm

Flow yoga links movement with the breath and a flowing sequence. Movement can be gentle and mindful to more dynamic. Often called 'vinyasa' as poses are linked by a familiar sequence of movements. This is a modern practice of Hatha yoga (the poses) and may include practices for an early morning vibe, a midday release or dynamic and progressive for a challenge.

Mondays 12:30pm - Tuesdays 7am - Wednesdays 12:00pm - Thursdays 7:00am and 7:30pm - Fridays 9:30am and 6:00pm -  Saturdays 9:00am and 11:45am

Focus on internal awareness, bone articulation and fascia. Address movement restrictions and holding patterns. Expect a slow class of discovery. This is a modern practice brilliant for stress reduction and exercise recovery. Delve deeper into understanding your physical sensations and emotional states and build tools to support your mental and physical well-being.

Saturdays 10:30am

The most physically demanding yoga practice for mental clarity. It is a set sequences of poses practiced with flow, synchronising your breath with movement. It is a fast practice, best with some experience or if fit and balancing this practice with functional yoga and/or an alignment practice. It is a traditional practice where you see your progression quickly.

Tuesdays 6:00 pm

The perfect practice to know you are getting poses 'right'. Use props from blankets to blocks and chairs are used to assist in accessing poses. You may hold poses for longer with alignment focus not flow. It is a traditional practice where you are told how to align your body in each pose for more benefits. A good practice if you are hyper mobile and the 'flow' element of other practices means you hyperextend. 

Tuesdays 9:30am - Wednesdays 7:30pm

Practice true rest as you gently open the body. Use poses that you may hold for longer with props, for deep relaxation and releasing tension physically and mentally. The best practice to calm your nervous system. There is a cross over with yin yoga where you also hold poses for longer with props. The emphasis is on releasing connective tissue and a teacher may use meditation techniques or go over the parallels with Chinese medicine

Tuesdays 7:30pm  (with sound) - Thursdays 4:00pm

Practice for more ease and comfort as you go through changes in your body and progress through pregnancy. Work on the best in movement and breath for more ease in labour, and for recovering after birth. Work on your pelvic floor and core, minimise the separation of your abdominal muscles and the overarching of your lower back, and learn about opening your shoulders for when you are carrying your baby.

Sundays 09:30am
