This months posture is ardha baddha padma paschimottanasana. Half Bound Lotus Forward Fold. The Sanskrit word “ardha” means half, “baddha” means bound, “padma” means lotus, “paschimottana” means intense forward fold and “asana” means pose.

The intense forward fold mimics an offering, symbolizing the letting go of the ego and embracing humility. The lotus represents purity, enlightenment, and rising above challenges. By pressing the heel against the abdomen, the pose is said to activate the Manipura Chakra (solar plexus), which governs personal power and energy.

🪷The benefits of half bound lotus forward fold pose include:

✨opens the hips and knees
✨stretches the spine
✨tones the abdominal organs
✨improves digestion
✨improves focus
✨improves posture
✨reduces stress and anxiety

In classical Hatha yoga, the body isn’t just physical- it’s also energetic.

Bandha, in Sanskrit, has many translations including “to bind”, “hold back”, “restrain”, but most commonly known as “to lock”.

Bandha refers to an internal muscle contraction and acts as a seal that directs or regulates the flow of prana(life force energy). Depending on how you practice bandha, it can have a calming effect or it can intensify focus and energy.

After some very positive feedback and demand for more classes, we’re very pleased to announce that we’ve added another shapeshifting class with Onni to the schedule.

This class is suitable for everyone as this fantastic set series supports and supplements any Hatha yoga practice or fitness routine.

Developed in the early 1990s by Mary Jarvis, a devoted practitioner of more than 40 years. It was designed to get her out of pain and help her become whole again after serious spinal injuries caused by a car accident. The body skills practiced will improve posture and bring increased strength, stamina and flexibility.

You can practice yoga shapeshifting with Onni every week on-

Wednesdays 6:30pm-7:45pm

Sundays 1:15pm-2:30pm

Book on our schedule page for a class, if you have any questions please get in touch.

Dear Yogi’s Namaste one and all, blessings of love, light and gratitude to you all.

This months quote is all about living authentically and finding fulfilment within oneself rather than seeking validation, approval or recognition from others, instead we are encouraged to pursue self-love and personal growth. This is becoming increasingly difficult in this day and age, it goes against the norm to strive for one’s own happiness and inner peace without displaying it for the world to see, can we take inspiration from the flower that blooms for its own purpose.

Flowers follow their nature, they do not bloom to be admired or to impress, they blossom because it is their nature. This encourages living in a way that is true to yourself, not for the pleasure of others.

We should strive to find happiness and purpose in our own life, this phrase suggests trusting your own timing and uniqueness rather than comparing your progress to others. In this new world of outward beauty and social media, it’s hard not to compare yourself to others.

The challenge here is to live fully and joyfully simply for the sake of being, it’s a gentle reminder to enjoy life’s transient, beautiful moments while they last. Shine because you have light inside you, and it matters not if others see it.

Blessings, stay humble, always be kind, keep breathing deeply, own your own peace and joy, if you never try you’ll never know, namaste.

This month posture is parsva dhanurasana, Side Bow Pose. The Sanskrit word “parsva” means side, “dhanur” means bow and “asana” means pose. This is a challenging intermediate balance posture that requires stability and strength in the hips and core to keep the body in balance.

This posture provides a deeper lateral stretch to the spine and significantly increases the massage effect on the internal abdominal organs. It also helps balance the left and right sides of the body, potentially benefiting individuals with mild spinal disorders.

The benefits of side bow pose include:

🎀strengthens the entire back, core, arms, and thighs
🎀increases flexibility in the vertebrae
🎀reduces muscular tension in the mid-upper back
🎀opens the diaphragm and rib cage, improving lung capacity
🎀stimulates the adrenal glands, which helps combat fatigue

This month we’ll be doing our best impression of a coffee table with utthita kurmasana. Raised Tortoise Pose. The Sanskrit word “utthita” means raised, “kurma” means tortoise or turtle, and “asana” means pose. This posture is frequently practiced as part of advanced yoga sequences.

Ancient sages frequently named asanas after shapes or qualities that they observed in nature. Tortoise Pose is named after an animal that withdraws into its shell when startled or threatened. When you take the physical shape of the tortoise in this pose, you will often experience an exquisite feeling of moving inward mentally, as though the world around you is moving out of focus as your inner world becomes more audible and clear.

🐢The benefits of raised tortoise pose include:

🌱strengthens the back
🌱tones the arms and abdominal organs
🌱increases flexibility in the hips and hamstrings
🌱quiets the mind
🌱builds core and arm strength
🌱helps improve circulation and reduce stress
