6 Ways Yoga
Charlotte Coates
Charlotte's passion for yoga started in 2013 after relocating to Cheltenham. To complement strength training she soon realised the value yoga had on her mind as well as her body. Working in an office meant that her time on the mat was valuable and necessary after a long days work. After completing 200 hr Vinyasa Teacher Training in 2016, Charlotte left her full time office job to become a yoga teacher and massage therapist. Knowing how every single body is different and everyone goes on their separate journeys throughout the day, Charlotte encourages that connection with the body and mind, helping to ensure her students get what they need from their practice at that time. Charlotte's classes are fun, dynamic with some strong poses to push her students to get the most out of their precious time but then allows space for softness. Her love for music comes across in her classes, and she strives for people to enjoy themselves and find their flow.

Description

This class is an invitation to slow down, ease your body, use your breath in a therapeutic way and calm your nervous system. Starting slowly with mindful breathing. Moving through your body to warm, release, stretch and free your joints. The practice progresses to a slow flow visiting key postures and sequences that are more gentle. We spend most of the time reclined, seated, prone and on hands and knees. This class is designed to ease the tight and tense spots in your body. We move slowly and softly. This practice is a good partner to more dynamic exercise. Suitable for beginners and anyone looking to deeply connect to their body through a softer practice. We end in a luxurious relaxation.
