Students practise a set sequence of postures at their own pace, following their own breath, and adding more postures in the first series as the body opens whilst the teacher offers one-on-one insight and assistance to each student in a group setting. Practising in this way is called Mysore-style and is the traditional way to learn Ashtanga vinyasa yoga. The shala is also open to any style of yoga. Suitable for beginners and advanced practioners. This unique method of yoga practice allows for students of varying physical abilities to share space, creating a diverse community. The instructor can also lead some Surya warm-up sequence to begin with and some sequencing later on in the practice to get used to the Sanskrit counting. It is designed for students who want to build a regular personal practice and seeks hands-on adjustment or guidance from a qualified yoga instructor.

Suitable as well to any levels and other styles of yoga practitioners who are attempting any advance poses who would like some physical support or assistance from the yoga teacher present during the time of the Ashtanga self-practice from others.

Mats and other yoga props are available to use plus variety of yoga books for resources and self-study whilst you are on your mat during your session.

The shala can be opened for self-practice from 7:30AM (prior noticed) on Tuesdays & Thursdays with assistance & adjustments.

The shala can also be opened for practice on Sunday with advance arrangement. Please contact by emailing practice@syzygyyoga.co.uk for access to the shala.

A full body stretch yin yoga class reflecting earth, as my body. It’s a time to breathe a little deeper into the body, tune into a space of introspection via the Yin Yoga poses applied in the session and pay attention to those open spaces in the body as we totally stretch particular part of our physical body.

As we sit with the stillness and the emptiness, we cultivate the energetic level of yin qualities. Reminding us of the importance of grounding, listening to our bodies, nurturing ourselves, and creating space for inner calm and rejuvenation. Yin energy teaches us to be patient and compassionate with ourselves and others, accepting life's challenges with grace and resilience.

Different props available all throughout the session.

“Bend with the Wind” themed yin yoga class, listening from our body’s wisdom to adapt to any circumstances and flow with changes as opposed to breaking or snapping. This class gently stretches the deeper muscles, the joints and fascia present in all parts of the body. Fascia is the connective tissue that separates our muscles and other organs in our body, all the while attaching, enclosing, and stabilising them together during all movements. It wraps, cushions, and supports everything inside our body; it connects our organs to our ribs, muscles, and bones to each other. Therefore it is necessary to keep our Fascia healthy for our body to function well.

Yin yoga compliments a more dynamic yoga practice as we flow from the Yang energy of the day into the Yin energy of the evening; it's softening the tissues, letting go of parts of the body, acknowledging your edge or knowing to back off when necessary, staying still in a pose and allowing the breath and sensations to tame the mind. Time, as duration in holding each posture, is an important aspect of the practice, allowing your body release to gravity and be carried through by the slowing breath and helps quiet the mind. Yin Yoga is a deeply nourishing practice that aims to calm the nervous system.

There will be hands-on-assists particularly on this class and props available all throughout the session.

“Feed the fire in your belly with this class that’s aimed at completing a full primary vinyasa counted led practice, which will begin with the warming up sequence of the Sun salutations A & B with optional chanting on the opening and closing mantra. Followed by the rest of the Ashtanga postures in the first series in an accessible and safe way. We will be flowing faster but on some days we will be exploring and applying some techniques in transitioning certain postures to refine and create a strong practice that you can apply on your self-practice without the presence of a teacher, it could be from chaturanga to Shirshasana (headstand). We will be flowing and moving with the breath so that the full practice will eventually turn into a moving or active meditation. Familiarity to the Ashtanga yoga system is recommended or at least have attempted reaching all the way to Setu Bandhasana or Setu Bandha Sarvangasana (half-bridge pose). Advanced practitioners of other styles of yoga are also very welcome as this is a vinyasa counted led class.
