1:1 by appointment only

Part of our series to give you the foundations you need to develop your practice. Charting asana, breath, vinyasa flow, alignments, meditation and philosophy. We spend time reping out asana and talking through the postural shapes, to build foundations for strength, flexibility, mobility and agility. This session is for everyone, whether complete beginner or revisiting aspects of your practice. It's also an open environment for questions, exploration and trying new things on the mat.

A 30 minute mini session. Giving you tools to realign your posture with strength and stability so that you can unlock your natural state for deeper relaxation. Expect a mix of practices, some yoga and non-yoga, as well as breathwork and tension release, all focused on mind body connection and deep body-work. Each class will be different to help give your more tools to take home and help you relax.

An evening wind-down gentle vinyasa for the whole body, set to music, with extra focus on the transitions and the way we feel inside.

This session will be more dynamic and aimed at building more energy with stronger postures and more yang movement.

Unity is a combination of East meets West. Shaped by teachings drawn from Integral, Traditional Vedic, and modern lineages. The mystical, philosophical, and the science-based. Expect mindful movement, an enquiry into organic, natural movement; moving inwards through focused awareness to then open outwards into a spectrum of authentic yogic postures with sensitivity and strength. The heart of this practice is about ‘being with oneself’, letting go and enjoying the process of unfolding rather than judging or forcing. Each class will be shaped by a different theme in response to either the time of day, element, season, lunar cycle, or energy, and your guide's curiosity.

A vinyasa flow is designed to capture the essential elements of primal movement.

During this session we ask ourselves "what would I be like if I had never sat in a chair or been able to get my food from walking around a busy supermarket. What would my body feel like if I had to run, climb and move just to survive".

This session is a discovery session, with yoga as the key vehicle. Balance, strength in posture and finding new movement patterns.

Special Notes: Set around vinyasa, expect some workshop moments and non-yogic movements.

You may sweat.

This is a FREE SPACE to practice yoga. This session is an open invitation to come and enjoy a yoga reset! Yoga is for everyone and this is an open session for all levels. There will be time after the session for chai and chats and space to explore any aspects of your practice that you wish!...

Gravity yoga is a targeted mobility training method that involves long hold stretches.

Poses are practised completely relaxed, passively, so gravity does most of the work. Gravity yoga focuses on opening up the hips, hamstrings and back, where eventually the whole body will open up overtime as everything is connected.

When you come to gravity yoga classes expect strong classes, challenging poses. The method is slow, with long hold postures taught in an effective and progressive way for each student to feel and deepen the stretch.

The classes are structured in a way that students can modify each posture to their physical needs, the aim is to find the stretch and relax as much as possible into each posture.

In gravity yoga we combine long hold postures with 4:8 breathing, an essential breathing technique that activate the parasympathetic nervous system and switch off the stretch and reflex response in the muscles, that usually naturally happens when we stretch the body, allowing the body to relax, open up deeper in a faster and more effective way, leaving a long lasting effect in the body and feeling a calmer mind.

PROPS AND TOOLS

∙Blocks
∙Strap
∙Cushion/Bolster/Pad/Pillow
∙Massage ball (optional)

Gravity yoga is:

∙100% focus on mobility
∙Slow, deliberate, and uncomfortable
∙More challenging mentally than physically

The Yoga-Social - An evening of yogic philosophy with Stephen Silver (Principle for The School of Philosophy and Economic Science - London)


Bhagavad Gita - A Yogic Philosophy


We are thrilled to announce that Stephen Silver, Principle of The School of Philosophy and Economic Science will be joining us here at Yoga in the Stars for a special evening of yogic philosophy, in a practical exploration of The Bhagavad Gita and how we take these ideas and philosophies into our lives.

And the session will end with a guided meditation to integrate your personalised connection to the principles within the evening’s discussions.

A bit about the The School of Philosophy and Economic Science and message from Stephen Silver.

A bit about the The School of Philosophy and Economic Science and message from Stephen Silver.

One of the basic premises in the School of Philosophy is that what we are looking for is already within us. What we are seeking may be expressed in many ways, but ultimately the journey is inwards.

In the School we draw heavily of the ancient teachings from the West and from the East, in particular the teaching of Advaita, non-duality or unity. The Sanskrit word yoga can be translated as union or path. It is a path leading to union with the goal – or more accurately the source.

The School is not religious but it is spiritual. One of the scriptures that we refer to a lot is the Bhagavad Gītā, where the prince Arjuna is led by the teaching of the Lord Krishna from despair to calm resolution.

Each of the 18 chapters of the Gītā is a yoga. Additionally, the word yoga is used variously throughout the text. So in this conversation, I would like to begin to explore the message of the Gītā in relation to Yoga.

It will be illuminating, fun and, possibly, challenging.

Stephen Silver
