Class Descriptions

Aerial yoga 

My background is in Circus and physical theatre , for me the combination of the aerial arts and yoga is the perfect balance .

Aerial yoga combines traditional asana (the physical postures of yoga) and yoga philosophies with the aerial arts using an aerial hammock.

You can be fully supported by the hammock — wrapping  around particular body parts, keeping other parts on the floor.

Hanging fully or suspending individual body parts is believed to create traction and open your body more gently and intuitively than when you’re on the floor. 

Gentle flow is suitable for all who are new to a yoga and aerial yoga practice, a more yoga focussed class with some beginner level aerial yoga poses.

General class  is for those who are confident in the air and have practiced yoga regularly, we will explore some flips&tricks 

Restorative is suitable for all and is inspired by Yin Yoga practices to bring ease into the body and mind 

Mat based Yoga 

My yoga style draws on my creative practice and can be a  playful exploration of the body and mind .  I take inspiration from many yoga styles including  Iyengar, Yin and Ashtanga , I also weave in somantics and movement to facilitate  you into a positive relationship with your own body.

I have a passion for  movement and neuroscience and enjoy keeping up to date with the latest research and practices.

My classes are open to all who wish to explore their bodies , I offer adaptations and props to help support you on your yoga journey.

Classes include focussed breathwork, exploration of key traditional yoga poses and meditation.
