The Classes Explained

Remember, HOW you practice is more important than WHAT you practice.

Deep stretch

Achieve more by doing less.

In this style of yoga we focus on target areas of the body, the sensations there and connect deeply with the breath. The poses are modified to suit individual needs. The focus is on the ‘yin’ tissues of the body: ligaments, joints, fascia and bones.

There are 3 simple principles to this practice:

  1. Come into the pose and find your ‘edge’ (a stretching sensation that you can feel but it is not causing pain)

  2. Find stillness

  3. Relax into the pose (for between 2-6 minutes).
