Tight shoulders and a sore lower back are some of the most common ailments of the modern human.

Learning the names of the postures (āsana) as well as modifications, our beginners courses are taught by advanced teachers with experience and enough humour to have you progressing through into Krama Sādhanā and Krama II classes in no time.
This course is suggested for those who have never practiced yoga before, for those who are returning to yoga after having a break and for those who would like to learn more about the names of postures, breathing exercises and practical stretching techniques.

Krama Sādhanā
The Krama Sādhanā class is a set sequence practice that never changes. It works from the foundations laid in the beginners course and gives the student a fast-paced, well-rounded sequence of standing postures, backbends, forward bends, twists, inversions, meditation, prānāyāma and much-needed relaxation.
The repetition of the set sequence allows you to experience the more subtle aspects of the practice over time. Due to the familiarity of the sequence and its repetition you are able to notice the improvements in your practice through both body and mind.
The Krama Sādhanā sequence forms the basis for our Level 1: Krama Sādhanā Teacher Training.
Krama II
Once the Krama I: Beginners course is complete and you’ve tried a few Krama Sādhanā classes, you are now ready to take a step up to Krama II, a complete vinyāsa class. Slower and more accessible than Krama III, expect variations offered for all experience levels. As each class has a different theme and sequence the practice can be challneging. The teachers will give modifications and options whilst trying to support each student in progressing their practice further.
Chanting and spiritual teachings will bring a greater depth to your practice. Expect hands-on assists, full use of props, occasional partner-work, wall work, and to finish a full, deep relaxation.
Krama II is perfect for if you are returning to class after a break, recovering from injury, pregnant, or simply prefer a slower pace compared to Krama III.
Classes are 60 minutes in duration.
Krama III
Experienced yogis are invited to embark on a challenging yet transformative Krama III. Open your heart and mind to a fully immersive experience that includes chanting, meditation and yogic philosophy, with a dynamic vinyāsa sequence powerfully connecting movement, breath and intention throughout. As the culmination of Krama I: Beginners and Krama II, this class is not recommended for newbies.
You will stretch, sweat, twist, turn upside down and even have a laugh or two. You will be guided with hands-on assists. The class may include partner work or a ‘workshop style’ breakdown of more challenging āsana for all levels. Make a commitment to attend Krama III classes regularly and observe as your practice thrives, your energy expands and your life transforms.
Classes are either 60, 75, or 90 minutes in duration. Not suitable for beginners.
Yin Yoga
Invite balance and harmony into your practice by stimulating and nourishing the major energetic pathways (meridians) that move qi (prana) in the body, and boost your emotional, mental and organ health.
In Yin yoga you will mostly hold floor-based postures passively for longer periods of time. You will intentionally create gentle stress, compression or pressure on the more yin parts of the body, like the bones, tendons and fascia, and push your practice to improve flexibility and regulate your body’s flow of energy.
Classes are either 60, 75, or 90 minutes in duration.
Restorative Yoga
The antidote to bustling, busy, overworked, under-slept, overstimulated contemporary life. Soothe these symptoms and ease your stress with the stillness, space, calm and quiet of Restorative Yoga. Using props and long-held postures to deliver deep relaxation and rejuvenation of the nervous system, you will feel refreshed after a gentle opening of the body, relaxing ambient soundtracks and just a dash of spiritual teaching.
Suitable for all students. Classes are 75 minutes of blissful rebalancing.

In-Class Private
Breakthroughs are waiting just beyond the borders of your fear. Sometimes, no matter how long you practice or how hard you try, the next level remains frustratingly out of reach. It could be psychological barriers are blocking you from experiencing the next level of your practice. An In-Class Private (ICP) can ease anxiety and diminish fear, allowing your self-confidence to climb… and the breakthroughs to begin.
In what may be the most immersive class you’ve ever taken, during a regular group class, another certified teacher will guide you through every movement of the class.
Whether you are sitting, standing or moving through vinyāsa, the teacher skilfully offers hands-on assists, refining each posture and taking you deeper into your practice. Work together to perfect the physical form as your body is energetically moved into alignment, in a unique experience that can feel as therapeutic as a full body massage.
To book an ICP, email [email protected] or speak with your preferred teacher after class. The duration of the ICP depends on the length of the class you wish to practice in.
