To learn and study the art of yoga, a little discipline and consistency is necessary.  We value these qualities highly as teachers and yoga practitioners ourselves.  Ultimately, the more we get on the mat to practice, the greater the rewards to our physical and mental health and to the way we move in the world.  Having a regular practice allows us to take time out of our busy lives to observe, to notice and be present.  Consistently coming onto the mat over time allows us to experience our patterns and habits.

Led Practice

Led Practice is a perfect environment to observe ourselves.  We all practice together - a teacher or Level 2 student calls and leads each asana and we all follow.  We adjust the asanas to our individual capacity by shortening the timings or taking support with equipment.  It's a gateway to home practice and a magnificent way to start your weekend!

Home Practice Workshop

Ultimately, we encourage our students to practise at home.  This keeps a rhythm and situates your yoga practice as part of your life.  It gives it a priority amongst all the other demands and noise in your life and brings harmony and balance.  

The Home Practice Workshop takes place on Saturday 3 August 1.00-4.00pm.  

I can't quite believe it's the start of another new term!  The positive side of arriving at the start of term, is that it does give us the opportunity to embark upon the study and practice of yoga with fresh eyes.  Yoga is not a short term endeavour.  It is a path of self study and ultimately, transformation.  This is a big undertaking, but we can break it down into bite size pieces, one term at a time. 

Join Steph, Fiona, Sharon and myself as we tread the path of yoga again this term.   Small steps may mean we learn how to walk a little more comfortably, how to align the body with more ease in Trikonasana.  For some it may mean more range of movement for their golf swing, or maybe even to sit quietly and be present for a few minutes each day.   

What will the practice of Yoga teach you this term?
