I’M PICKIN’ UP GOOD VIBRATIONS…
… which can mean only one thing. It’s time for our delicious Full Moon in Leo Sound Bath.
This is a blissful opportunity to relax deeply and switch off from the craziness of life at this time of year. We invite you to melt into stillness as the rich, harmonic frequencies of the Moon Gong, Crystal Singing bowls and other instruments bathe you in sound.
The benefits of Sound Healing are far reaching. From lowering heart rate and blood pressure to engaging the parasympathetic nervous system, initiating calm and peace. The deep relaxation this practice offers has to be experienced to be believed.
So join us for our FULL MOON IN LEO SOUND BATH
Date: 31st JANUARY
Time: 6:00PM – 7:30PM
Cost: £36

Let’s start at the very beginning, it’s a very good place to start!
Want to try Ashtanga but have no idea where to start?
Our Introduction to Ashtanga Workshop offers you the perfect opportunity to understand this dynamic, breath-led style of movement. Whether you’re a total novice, looking to return to the practice or curious about self-led ashtanga, this workshop is for you.
Under the expert guidance of Raili, you’ll develop your understanding of the sequence, breathing and flow of the practice, which focuses on opening the shoulders and hips.
This introductory workshop will cover:
➡ History and purpose of the practice
➡ Postures
➡ Breathing
➡ How to confidently continue your practice.
Join us on 31st January and start your empowering Ashtanga journey with Yoga Reading!
Looking to enrich your practice? This 2-hour workshop is for you!
Anusara (From Sanskrit ‘anu’ meaning ‘with’ and ‘sara’ meaning flow) is an inclusive style of movement that honours the student’s abilities and limitations, building a practice that is powerfully life-affirming and motivational.
What to expect
➡ During this workshop you’ll discover the benefits of this heart-opening style
➡ Drawing upon Ta***ic Philosophy, biodynamic movement and the Universal
➡ Principles of Alignment, you’ll explore how to bring more awareness, balance, and intrinsic goodness into your practice.
Open to all practitioners and teachers seeking to deepen and enhance their practice.
The 17th January is thought to be the day large numbers of us abandon our New Year’s resolutions. So if you’re feeling guilty about not hitting your 10k steps, or sneaking that mid week glass of wine, or accidentally mainlining the leftover Quality Streets… Well, let it go!
Let’s see this as an opportunity to reset, guilt-free. Instead of hard-edged resolutions we could try to plot more gentle goals, moving away from vague promises (‘get fit’) to something more specific and sustainable (‘walk to get coffee rather than drive’).
We invite you to pivot away from firm commitments and set intentions instead. Something more open-ended that we can treat as a guiding principle. Intentions offer a softer approach creating space for self-compassion (something most of us need a lot more of!)
So whether you’re nailing your resolutions, or have long-abandoned them, remember the goal is growth, not perfection. Give yourself permission to learn, make mistakes and course correct. And don’t forget to celebrate every win, no matter how small it may be - you’re doing great, eat the damn toffee penny!

We are Yoga Reading. We are Katia and Sophie and Yoga Reading has grown out of our friendship and our total belief in the fact that movement makes you feel better. Every. Single. Time.
As we’ve built Yoga Reading, this belief has been moulded and elevated through our understanding that movement needs to be tailored to your body and your needs – which, guess what, change over time. What we need now in our 40’s is different from what we needed in our 20’s and we know this will continue to change. The skills we have built over the last ten years or so have equipped us with the knowledge of how to support our body’s to be strong and, most importantly, to improve our level of comfort. And this is what we want to share with the Yoga Reading community.
We want to provide the BEST quality teaching and information so that everyone can find the tools and techniques they need to support their busy lives and feel comfortable and strong in their bodies.
We have built a team of teachers to work with us to make sure that there’s a practice on our schedule for everyone. Between us we are skilled in yoga, meditation, injury prevention and reduction, rehabilitation, strength training, anxiety management, standing on your head and being able to sit very still!
Basically we have a lot of knowledge on what you can do to feel strong, find a sense of calm and manage the overwhelm of your busy week.
We know what it’s like to be juggling work, family, relationships and general external pressures (oh you know like a global pandemic?!). It’s easy for your health and self-care practices to drop by the wayside.
By joining the Yoga Reading community you are gaining access to best quality movement and mindfulness expertise and connecting with a warm community of teachers and students.
We really hope to see you in the studio or virtually soon!
