Moon Sequence classes are back on Monday the 23rd!

Vinyasa Krama: The Lunar Path
Softness, Stability, and Sustainable Flow

In a world that often demands we move at 100mph, the Moon Sequence (Chandra Krama) offers a vital invitation to slow down. Unlike the heating, linear nature of a traditional Sun Salutation, this class focuses on the "Krama"—the wise, intentional steps—to soothe the nervous system and build strength without depletion.
This practice is designed to mirror the cooling, receptive energy of the moon. We move through grounding postures that prioritize hip mobility, spinal fluidity, and steady breathing. It is an ideal "antidote" practice for anyone feeling overstimulated, physically tight, or mentally fatigued.

Why Practice the Moon Sequence?
Joint Longevity: By emphasizing circular movements and soft transitions, we reduce pressure on the wrists and shoulders often felt in standard Vinyasa.
Nervous System Regulation: The slower pace encourages the "rest and digest" state, helping to lower cortisol and improve sleep quality.
Lower Body Freedom: Focuses deeply on the hips, hamstrings, and lower back—areas where we often hold the day’s tension.
Mindful Presence: The repetitive, rhythmic nature of the Krama creates a moving meditation, making it easier to quiet the "monkey mind."

Is This Beginner-Friendly?
Absolutely. One of the core tenets of Vinyasa Krama is that the practice must fit the individual, not the other way around.

You don't need to be flexible or have a prior yoga practice to join. The only prerequisite is being able to kneel comfortably on your heels.

£62.50 for 5 weeks or £17.50 to drop in.

🌙✨New YOGA Class ✨🌙

Chandra Krama or Moon Sequence is a flowing practice perfect for all levels, especially beginners. Unlike faster-paced vinyasa, this sequence focuses on deep hip opening, soothing the nervous system, and building internal awareness. It's a therapeutic, balanced (sattvic) practice that relieves tension in the wrists and shoulders while honoring your body's natural limits. This is the perfect balance to a more dynamic practice such as Ashtanga, or other types of fitness. Leave feeling grounded, nourished, and deeply peaceful.

The only prerequisite is that you must be able to kneel comfortably on your heels, even if this is elevated on a block and with a blanket under your knees.

Mondays 9-11:30 at Perkins Youth Hall, Boldre. Booking essential, spaces limited. £62.50 for 5 weeks starting January 12th.

✨ Beginners Ashtanga Yoga - 6 Week Introductory Yoga Course in Lymington ✨

Saturdays 10:15-11:15 Jan 10th - Feb 21st 2026
(No class Feb 14th)

St Marks Community Hall, The Square, Pennington, SO41 8EJ

Over this 6 week course you will be gently introduced to the practice of Ashtanga Yoga. We will start from the ground up, working with modified and simplified versions of the poses.

Ashtanga is a traditional and classical style of Yoga, linking movement to breath, and following a set series of poses that builds strength, flexibility, and peace of mind, and allows for steady and consistent progress.

This course will be suitable for complete beginners, as well as anyone already practicing Yoga but new to Ashtanga. If you have any specific mobility or health concerns, please get in touch with me prior to booking to check this course will be appropriate as although this is a course for Beginners, Ashtanga is not a gentle or slow style of Yoga.

Following the end of this course you will be given the option to continue booking on a half termly basis, with each half term having it's own specific focus and giving progression throughout the following year.

You will need to bring your own Yoga mat (3-5mm thickenss) and 2 cork Yoga bricks are recommended.

£55 for 6 Weeks, or bring a friend and book 2 spaces for £88

✨ The Benefits of Ashtanga Yoga ✨

Yoga apparantly isn't as fashionable as it was 15 years ago! So why, in the current world of pilates princesses (sorry 😅) should you choose Yoga, and specifically Ashtanga?

The Primary Series of Ashtanga Yoga is called Yoga Chikitsa in Sanskrit, which translates as Yoga Therapy.

This beautiful series of postures is sequenced in order to bring healing and health to the body and this series really isn't just a stretch class, or just focused on building flexibility. It cultivates strength and stamina. In the standing poses we find the grounding of our feet and legs and gain stability. Through the series of forward bends we calm the nervous system. And through focused awareness of both body and breath we begin to develop a calmer, more peaceful mind.

I teach Primary Series with modifications and props, to make it accessible to everyone's level and anatomy (but beginners are better off in my beginners course in Jan). After a half primary series practice I always like to add in accessible but effective core and back conditioning work to ensure a well rounded practice that allows students to progress and develop their Yoga practice to including more challenging backbends and inversions.

Send me a message if you'd like to join the final half term of classes this year. Starts this Saturday 15th Nov, 8.45-10am at St Marks Hall Pennington (Lymington, New Forest)

Final week of TT day 3! Today we had lead a yoga photography workshop and mini photo shoot ❤️

Then 2 trainees Iveta and Mel passed their final assessments with flying colours, despite a lot of nerves.

Yoga teacher training is challenging, hard work, and at times emotional. With my courses there are no participation prizes, only authentic and well deserved recognition of achievement. I'm very proud of this group 😊
