After-Surf Yoga

Charlotte Waugh
Charlotte is a 500 certified yoga teacher from Arohan Yoga (2021) and Himalayan Yoga Association (2025) in Rishikesh India, plus an additional 30hr Yoga Anatomy certification online from Laura Goellner (2023). She loves learning just as much as teaching, because to teach is to learn; so no doubt these won’t be her last certifications.
Charlotte has 4 years experience teaching and 10 years of personal practice. She loves teaching Hatha and Yin yoga, and recently has been discovering ways to incorporate fun varieties and sequences involving primal movement and mobility routines.
She believes in the importance that we should enjoy and look forward to our movement practice or exercise, instead of feeling like we need to tick it off like a chore done. Instead of focusing on the goal, she will help you take away the pressure to achieve, and fully embrace your perfectly imperfect individuality in the present moment. Just as we welcome fast paced movement, we must also balance ourselves with stillness, which can be mentally challenging for many. This is where we can benefit from Yin Yoga and accept that both are as important as the other.
At Vaya Studio Charlotte will give restorative Yin Yoga classes, and stay tuned for her Primal Fusion class coming soon.
Description
After-Surf Yoga
Gentle – Grounding – Restorative
All Levels | Also suitable for non-surfers
Whether you’ve just returned from the ocean or are simply feeling the need to slow down—this class is your invitation to unwind, soften, and reconnect.
After-Surf Yoga is a grounding and restorative practice that focuses on releasing tension from the muscles used most during physical activity—especially surfing, but also hiking, walking, or working long hours. Expect gentle stretching, breath awareness, and long-held poses that calm your nervous system and support recovery.
We stay close to the floor and move slowly—offering your body a chance to release deeply and rest fully.
It’s not about doing more.
It’s about doing less—and feeling more.
This class is open to all levels and perfect for:
• Surfers looking to stretch and recover
• Active bodies in need of softness
• Anyone who wants to relax deeply and restore balance
• Yogis who prefer a slow, mindful pace
No experience is needed. Come as you are—tired, salty, sandy, or simply curious.
🧘♀️ What to Expect
• A slow and supported floor-based practice
• Stretches for shoulders, hips, lower back, and legs
• Gentle breathwork & guided body awareness
• Calming transitions & moments of stillness
• A short lying meditation to close
