About the Beginners Yoga Class

Each beginner class starts with some breathing exercises and grounding followed by poses that warm up the spine and heat up the body. This is followed by a series of held postures to build strength, stability and stamina.

We include some breathwork and backbends to energise the mind and body. Class ends with gentle stretching to improve flexibility and a nice relaxation.

Have a few classes under your belt?

Check out our Align & Flow classes. Expect some simple flowing sequences to warm up the body matched with slower-paced movements that focus on alignment, strength, balance, and flexibility, Yin Yoga is very suitable if you feel very immobile and are interested in a more gentler yoga practice that will target stiff joints.

How to Prepare for your Beginners Yoga Class
