‘VINYASA’ MEANS ‘PLACING WITH AWARENESS’. THESE OPEN-LEVEL CLASSES SYNCHRONISE BREATH WITH MOVEMENT AS YOU FLOW THROUGH POSTURES AND TRANSITIONS.

CREATED BY YOGA LEGEND LARRY SCHULTZ, THIS IS A DYNAMIC AND FAST-PACED SEQUENCE SIMILAR TO ASHTANGA VINYASA INCLUDING SURYA NAMASKAR A+B, STANDING POSES, SEATED POSES + CLOSING SERIES WITH LOTS OF INVERSIONS THROWN IN FOR GOOD MEASURE.

DEVELOPED IN THE 20TH CENTURY, ASHTANGA IS A SET SEQUENCE OF PROGRESSIVE AND CONTINUOUS POSTURES WHICH BUILD INTERNAL HEAT WHEN COMBINED WITH UJJAYI BREATH.

ASHTANGA LITERALLY MEANS ‘EIGHT LIMBS’ AND REFERS TO THE EIGHT LIMBS OUTLINED IN PATANJALI’S YOGA SUTRAS. THESE LIMBS DESCRIBE VARIOUS STAGES OF A HOLISTIC YOGA PRACTICE, FROM LIFESTYLE TO ENLIGHTENMENT.

FOUNDED BY PROFESSIONAL DANCER LETITIA WILKINSON, DYNAMIC BODY® IS THE ULTIMATE FULL BODY WORKOUT COMBINING CONTEMPORARY & BALLET TRAINING TECHNIQUES WITH YOGA AND PILATES TO TRANSFORM YOUR PHYSICAL PRACTICE, DEEPEN YOUR BODY AWARENESS AND FIND MORE EASE IN YOUR MOVEMENT.

A RESTFUL, PEACEFUL PRACTICE THAT IS ALL ABOUT SLOWING DOWN AND OPENING YOUR BODY THROUGH PASSIVE STRETCHING.

A SLOW AND PASSIVE CLASS WHERE POSTURES ARE HELD FOR LONGER PERIODS OF TIME TO TARGET DEEP INTO THE FASCIA (CONNECTIVE TISSUE). GREAT FOR RELEASING DEEP-SEATED PATTERNS OF TENSION IN THE BODY.

DESIGNED BY DAVID LLOYD, SPIRIT CLASSES BRING TOGETHER STRENGTH, POWER, ENERGY AND CALM FOR A HOLISTIC EXPERIENCE THAT WILL HELP YOU RESET FOR THE DAY AHEAD, OR HELP YOU TO WIND DOWN IN THE EVENING. SET TO BEAUTIFUL MOTIVATING MUSIC, THIS WORKOUT IS A JOURNEY OF POSTURES THAT ARE CENTERED AROUND BUILDING CORE STRENGTH, WHILE INCREASING FLEXIBILITY AND MOBILITY. ENDING WITH A MINDFUL SOUND MEDITATION, SPIRIT CLASSES GIVE YOU AN OPPORTUNITY TO SLOW DOWN AND FOCUS ON YOU AND YOUR PERSONAL WELLNESS FOR A LITTLE WHILE.

A FORM OF GUIDED MEDITATION ALSO KNOWN AS ‘YOGIC SLEEP’. PRACTICED LYING DOWN TO DRAW ATTENTION INWARDS AND LET YOURSELF DRIFT BETWEEN STATES OF WAKEFULNESS AND SLEEP SO YOUR BODY CAN FIND ITS NATURAL STATE OF EQUILIBRIUM.

AN ACTIVE RELAXATION FOR THE MIND, MEDITATION IS SIMPLY OBSERVING YOUR THOUGHTS AND EMOTIONS COME AND GO WITHOUT JUDGEMENT. THIS ENABLES YOU TO REACH INTO THE SPACE BETWEEN THOUGHTS AND CONNECT WITH YOUR TRUE, UNCONDITIONED SELF.

LIE DOWN, CLOSE YOUR EYES AND BATHE IN THE SOUNDS, REVERBERATIONS AND VIBRATIONS OF THE PLANETARY GONGS AND CRYSTAL BOWLS.

EVEN 45 MINUTES CAN BRING ABOUT HEALING ON A CELLULAR LEVEL, ENABLING YOU TO BREAK FREE OF OLD PATTERNS AND RESTORE, REBALANCE AND RE-ENERGISE.
