Vinyasa - Hatha - Hot - Yin - Menopause Yoga - Anusara E. - Restorative - Nidra Good for beginners? Absolutely!

Summary
Vinyasa means "breath-synchronized movement," and Vinyasa yoga is a series of poses that will move you through the power of inhaling and exhaling. Vinyasa movements are smoothly flowing and almost dance-like, which explains why it is sometimes referred to as Vinyasa Flow or just Flow. Origins
Vinyasa Flow began as Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga by a Yogi named Sri Tirumala Krishnamacharya. He was given a place to teach yoga and eventually taught a young boy named Parrabhi Jois his learnings on the power of breathing. Jois then established an institute for practicing the specific form of Vinyasa yoga. Benefits
Like all styles of yoga, Vinyasa has both mental and physical benefits. Physically,with regular practice your strength and flexibility will improve, back pain will ease, stiffness in joints will reduce, sweat expels toxins and re-energizes your body. Mentally, the synchronized breathing relaxes your mind and helps to release any blockage of energy flow throughout your body, relieving tension and leaving you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. A Vinyasa class is both a great place to start and to continue challenging yourself. If you like to focus on the power of breathing and flowing movement through poses, you will enjoy the Vinyasa style. What to wear
Vinyasa yoga involves a lot of movement, so wear something you are comfortable in to flow from one pose to another. You will likely be working up a sweat so wear something breathable and moisture-wicking. What to bring
Bring a yoga mat if you have one although some are available to borrow, a towel, and a water bottle to stay hydrated. What to expect
Expect to move and breathe smoothly from one pose to another. The class will most likely include Sun Salutations. Vinyasa yoga is almost like a dance with synchronized breath and movements; the style and sequence may vary week to week to help challenge you and keep things interesting. The most important thing is to come and have fun!! Sarah also teaches Hatha, Yin, Restorative, Yoga Nidra, Anusara Elements and Menopause Yoga

New Year Yin Detox Workshop –
January 10th 2026

Reset your body and mind as you step into the new year. This nourishing Yin Detox Workshop is designed to help cleanse, release and restore after the busyness of the festive season. Expect long-held, grounding poses, deep relaxation and space to reset your energy, leaving you refreshed, rebalanced and ready for the year ahead.

The Winter Solstice occurs this Sunday 21st December. It is the shortest day and longest night of the year.

The day with the least amount of daylight hours in the northern hemisphere.

Historically, the Winter Solstice has been of significance to many cultures around the world, often as a marker of the passing seasons, and a time of rebirth and renewal.

Winter is a time of yin energy - a time for slowing down, reflecting and turning inward and honouring our deep need for rest and relaxation over constantly ‘doing’. This stands in contrast to the activity of the festive season, which can feel particularly intense and chaotic as we juggle all that Christmas throws our way.

So, this Winter Solstice, even if your to-do list is as long as your arm with Christmas prep, give yourself permission to rest, to tap into the yin energy of the season, to rest, recover and reserve your energy for the rest of winter to follow and be prepared and enetgised for the promise of spring and longer days and nights to come.

Join me this Sunday for a
75min Winter Solstice Yin practice,

We will honour the Kidney and Urinary Bladder meridians. These two meridians are deeply interconnected and associated with the Water element, which governs the winter season.

This course is open to anyone looking to experience the different aspects of yoga, from pranayama (breath work) to Asana ( the poses) and what it is to be mentally and physically relaxed.

Each week we look at a different family of poses, from sun salutations, standing poses, hip opening poses, twists and backbends. Building on your knowledge each week.

In each yoga class, we will be taking each yoga pose at a much slower pace and breaking each pose down to ensure that care and attention is being paid to your alignment and form so that you will learn how to practice yoga in an effective and safe way.

If you miss one of the classes, you can attend one of our other classes in the studio. No experience needed- just curiosity!
