A spacious and mindful practice with longer hatha style holds, with guided breath and set to music.

Join for Foundations of Yoga as 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 slow, deeply intentional, but strong Vinyasa practice for the whole body for all levels. Expect longer held pauses for mind-body connection and guided breath cues to help guide you through this deep and sometimes challenging practice.
The beginning of the class will allow you to create a space for reconnection with your inner Self through opening meditation and pranayama (breath extension), which should remain as a part of your practice for the rest of the session. Towards the end, you can expect a grounding sequence in order to slow down the breath and reflect on your experience on the mat.

This session is truly for everyone, all genders, ages and abilities.
The slow and graceful pace of the class will help you to learn how to listen to your body and gain the strength, not just physically, but mentally in the first place.
Everyone in this class is usually encouraged to use the yoga props along with trying many adjustments which are always offered to take in order to explore our boundaries and find the edges.

This Yoga practice is about quieting the fluctuations of the mind and creating a relationship with our mind, rather than being constantly in a separation and uncontrollable fight inside. Through the conscious and mindful movements along with a breath, you will be guided to stay present and take most of the experience off the mat into your daily life.

Every session is a different experience.

4 ounces to move 1000 pounds_

What is tai chi ?

Perhaps the black and white pattern in a circle like 2 fishes chasing each other or yin and yang comes to one’s mind. …….

“ Si Liang Bo qian Jin “ is a Chinese saying : using 4 ounces strength to move a 1000 pounds weight. This saying is frequently heard in Tai Chi classes around the globe.

This concept is not about one’s size, or even if your opponent is stronger than you are. It is about using tai chi concepts in practical life application.

With this concept we are dealing with “live weight” or moving object, and by applying leverage. But using mind and intent and NOT force.
_

My name is Adrian Ling, I learned tai chi when I was young, from the old master back in Malaysia. I began to take tai chi more seriously for the last 5 to 6 years. And been teaching in community centres, libraries and among friends and families.

I like to introduce the basic tai chi and qi gong to our community, both for wellness and physical health .

We will be working towards learning forms. Eg. Yang style 8, 16, 24, 32 forms.

Or Chen style 18 forms.

These will come to light more when we are physically there. The forms are the building blocks of tai chi.

And tai chi can be translated as : The supreme ultimate.

Covering Basia

Hatha Flow with Carla (cover)

This session is a complete nourishment for body, mind & spirit. Hatha yoga is slightly slower paced, staying in positions longer which make us have time to feel the different dynamics in the posture, find good alignment & tune into the breath. Hatha Yoga is a Grounding practice and is proven to reduce stress & anxiety.

In this session you will experience your spine be realigned, spirit lifted & energy levels restored.

BREATH WORK - Energising breath-work to bring you into the present moment.

PILATES FLOW- Starting with slow & precise movement originated from the core. Building up to a sweaty flow to good VIBES tunes!

Join Andrea for a sensitive fluid motion session that mirrors the phases and cycles of nature. Expect breath cues and introspective facilitation as well as some stronger challenging moments too. Set to music.

Yoga in the Stars is a project by The Metahealth Movement, a not-for-profit working towards elevated health.

We are thrilled to announce that £9,943 has been donated to Yoga in the Stars by The National Lottery Community Fund for a special new project The Yoga-Social!

The project is to create a space for people to come together around health and well-being. A free space to practice yoga, breathwork, movement, dance, tai chi and talk about health, food and lifestyle. Use the studio equipment and space in an open, inclusive and fun way. Expect spontaneous workshops and sessions, as well as a dedicated self-practice space, and we hope to invite other local yoga teachers to host sessions and workshops throughout the year to help grow and enrich the community.

Reach out to us with ideas.

Yoga really is for everyone, it’s a personal thing, and is a lifestyle choice that goes way beyond the mat and into every aspect of life, and we hope that this grant helps you to explore what this can mean for you as we discover together.
