Comfortable stretchy clothing such as leggings and t-shirt or any usual fitness wear – nothing too baggy.   You may also want to bring a jumper and some socks to pop on ready for Savasana (the relaxing bit) towards the end of the class to keep you snuggly. We provide mats and props at the studio or you are welcome to bring your own.  Please, no camping mats or foam mats as they can cause injury.  A yoga mat is specifically designed to provide the necessary grip and cushioning to ensure a safe practice.  You can pick up a budget yoga mat for around £10.

Then yoga is really going to help :) Don’t worry, you really don’t need to be flexible to practice yoga. Each body is unique and has different levels of natural flexibility and mobility.  Practicing yoga will encourage your muscles to lengthen and strengthen and you may find that your flexibility and mobility quickly improve.

Absolutely! We have specific Beginners Classes on the timetable for those who are keen to start from the beginning.  If you have a reasonable level of fitness and mobility you may like to join our standard classes which are open to all levels. Our teachers can offer modifications if necessary and many of the poses have different options so that you can tailor your practice to your own level, depending on how you are feeling that day. Please let the teacher know before class begins if it is your first class.

Yoga can be really beneficial at helping some injuries and health issues but you must check with your doctor first. Please get in touch before your class so that we can discuss any modifications if necessary. And always have a chat with your teacher before class so that they can guide you with care and consideration.

Please arrive in good time although no earlier than 10 minutes before class.  We begin with a gentle warm up before easing into a flow sequence which links poses and breath together.  We move mindfully, but don’t be fooled – your muscles will be working their socks off!  The sequence may change a little from week to week but you will always have a well-rounded and balanced practice.  We finish each session with Savasana – about 5 mins of relaxation.  Some teachers believe Savasana to be the most important pose to conquer.  It teaches you to be still and to allow your mind and body to fully absorb the benefits of your yoga practice.  Although it can be tempting to rush off and skip Savasana, please treat yourself to 5 minutes of stillness.

You bet!  More and more men are discovering the wonders of yoga, perhaps to complement more energy intensive exercise such as cycling, tennis and running and for the mental health benefits. Yoga works the muscles in a different way and can be very effective at improving overall performance and stamina.  Yoga is also a great antidote to the hours spent hunched over a computer or sat driving.  It will awaken your core, release tension in your back, neck and shoulders, improve strength and flexibility and give a busy mind a well-deserved time-out.

It’s best to avoid eating for 2 hours before a class if possible as we will be doing twists, bends and flexes which can feel uncomfortable on a full stomach. Try to ensure you are hydrated before class.

Never!  Yoga becomes more beneficial as we age, aiding balance, stiffness and mindfulness. We can adapt each pose to suit your level and gradually grow with practice, so please do come along and try a class.

We run a strict 24 hour cancellation notice and no-show policy.  If you have purchased a 10 class Flexipass or Drop-in class you can cancel your class with at least 24 hours notice and the class credit will be added back to your Flexipass.  After this, if you do not attend the class we are unable to refund the credit.

We are a small studio with limited spaces and so every mat counts.  We hope you understand.
