Meditation
The format of the class is a short introduction, followed by relaxation and connecting in with a visualisation. Then comes the meditation, which will be different each week and have a specific focus. With guidance and support from the meditation facilitator Jane Seaman.
Mindfulness
When we are mindful, we pay deliberate attention, in the present moment, to things as they are rather than to how we wish them to be. Instead of ruminating on the past, which we can’t change, or worrying about the future about things that may or may never happen…
Movement, relaxation & meditation
This class combines different techniques that include yoga postures, qigong, moving with deep awareness, and stretching and lengthening your muscles, breath work, brain training, reflexology, strengthening and releasing energy with sound.
Foundation yoga
Based on the principles of hatha yoga, foundation yoga is just that: postures that create the foundation of your yoga practice. Perfect for those who want to strengthen their core yoga practice, those who are new to yoga or returning after a long time off.
Our monthly yoga for teenagers is on a Sunday evening to set you up in the perfect frame of mind to take on whatever the week ahead holds in store for you…! The class is for teenagers aged 11 to 18 and is run by Jo Studdert-Kennedy who is a qualified TeenYoga teacher with experience of teaching yoga to young people in mental health services.
Vinyasa flow yoga
Vinyasa, meaning ‘flow’, is one of the most popular forms of yoga. It interlinks postures to create a flowing, more dynamic physical challenge, but again culminating in savasana relaxation so you’re left energised, refreshed and positive.
Pilates has so many benefits and really is for everybody. It helps to develop strength, flexibility, endurance and posture without stressing joints. This makes it the perfect complement to cardiovascular exercise, athletic training or rehabilitation…
For this monthly class you will be using a mixture of yogic breath work, chanting and yoga nidra to de-stress and revitalise your mind, body and soul. The class will be teacher led to allow you to surrender to the practice without having to worry about what to do next.
