Move & Breathe Better
A 4-week course to learn all about moving, breathing, resting and living well in your body.
What if feeling good in your body wasn't about becoming more flexible, touching your toes or perfecting a particular shape — but about having more options?

Over five weeks, we'll explore our amazing and wonderfully adaptable human bodies through natural, functional and playful movement, breathwork and rest.

If you've been to my classes before, you know how much I talk about variety, how our bodies have this huge range of possible movements, but unfortunately we only end up using a small percentage of that. Mostly due to the convenience of our modern world. This creates an imbalance of movements that are used a lot, and some that are not used at all.

This course more than anything will focus on rebalancing that; not by creating crazy shapes or lifting heavy weights but by moving our bodies how they were meant to.

Our breath changes when we move, when we're stressed, when we're relaxed, when we exert ourselves and when we rest. And the way we breathe can influence how we move, how much tension we carry, how we respond to effort and how quickly we recover.

Over these five weeks, we'll explore both sides of this relationship — learning to move with more freedom, breathe with more ease and recover more deeply.

Rather than flowing from one pose to the next, we will spend a bit more time on each movement. Trying and testing what works for us. I will also aim to offer personalised tips for everyone to make it as valuable as possible - because all our bodies are different.

We'll crawl, squat, reach, rotate, balance, roll and move through different environments and positions. We'll also explore nasal breathing, ribcage and diaphragmatic movement, breathing during exercise, breath control, recovery breathing and different techniques for calming or energising the nervous system.

Rather than looking for one "perfect" way to move or breathe, we'll develop more options, awareness and adaptability — learning to respond to what our bodies actually need.

You'll leave with:
Greater awareness of how you move and breathe
Practical ways to improve mobility and strength
A better understanding of how to move with less unnecessary tension
Tools for using your breath to support effort and recovery
More confidence getting up, down, around and through different movements
Ideas for bringing more natural movement into everyday life
A renewed appreciation for the joy of simply moving your body

Vinyasa Flow Yoga is a dynamic and physically more challenging style of yoga that emphasises on fluid movement and breath control. In a typical Vinyasa Flow class, we will move through a sequence of movements in a continuous, flowing way, synchronised to the breath.

Moving faster and having to work a little bit harder with the body can both be really fun and a great way to calm the mind down. Vinyasa yoga can offer a great respite or act as a balancing tonic if we are living a life where there is a lot of focus on thinking and less on physical movement.

Each class will be different and the focus can lie on different body parts, such as hips or shoulders, or a particular movement, like circles or backbends. The focus can also be to keep a mindset of fluidity or stability. But in each class we will move through a variety of poses, including sun salutations, standing and balancing poses aiming to get the whole body involved and energised.

This gentle, nurturing class helps you connect with your body, breath, and mind. We begin with a short centering meditation before moving through a slow & gentle sequence of accessible postures focused on releasing tension from modern life—mobilising the spine, opening the chest, and increasing circulation through the hips and legs.

The second half of the class is a guided meditation where you are invited to lie down (or sit if you prefer). Moving the body allows the mind to be more still, making this format great even for those who have a busy mind and struggle to switch off. We will be using simple techniques like breath awareness or body scanning. Expect to leave feeling grounded, relaxed, and more connected to yourself.

A slow, nourishing way to begin the weekend. This class is all about moving gently, waking the body up with care, and creating space to breathe and just be.

We’ll begin lying down, easing out the stiffness of sleep with soft stretches, gentle twists, and fluid movements that invite openness into the spine, hips, and shoulders. As the body begins to feel more awake, we’ll move through a few simple standing flows — all adaptable and at your pace.

The class will be focused on breath, presence, and how the body feels moment to moment. A class to help you feel grounded, centred, and quietly energised — ready for whatever the rest of the weekend holds.

Suitable for absolutely everyone
Great for improving energy and relaxation for the day ahead

The pace of the class is deliberately slow and gentle, allowing you to move with ease and to focus on your breath and body sensations. We stay close to the ground, with none or few standing poses. All poses can be changed and adapted if you, for example, need to stay off your hands or your knees.

By slowing down we get a chance to really feel what is going on and focus on alignment which allows for a safer and more comfortable practice. It helps improve our body awareness which has benefits extending far into our normal life off the yoga mat as well.

These classes are perfect for anyone who wants to move in a gentle way and work on their flexibility. Whether you feel limited by your body or are active somewhere else and want more holistic movement aimed at recovery and wellbeing.

Restorative yoga is all about slowing down, letting go, and allowing the body and mind to deeply rest. Unlike more active styles of yoga, this practice uses long-held, supported poses to invite stillness and encourage gentle release.

With the help of props like bolsters, blankets, blocks, and straps, we create shapes that feel safe and nurturing—allowing tension to melt away over time. Each pose is held for several minutes to give the nervous system a chance to reset and the body space to truly restore.

I, Ylva, may guide you through calming breathwork or simple meditations throughout the class, supporting your journey inward. The pace is slow, the atmosphere peaceful, and the focus is on presence, softness, and deep rest.

Restorative yoga classes are suitable for all levels of experience, including beginners, as the poses are gentle and accessible. They can be especially helpful for those experiencing stress, anxiety, or physical discomfort, as they offer a space for relaxation and restoration.

For this class bring your mat, a blanket and a pillow or bolster (if you don't have your own, email me and I will bring it for you).

The pace of this class will be a little bit more energising than the other gentle classes as it is nice to feel a little bit invigorated for the afternoon.
However the class will still be gentle, with a focus to move with ease and to focus on the breath and body sensations. We stay close to the ground, with none or few standing poses. All poses can be changed and adapted if you, for example, need to stay off your hands or your knees.
