NAMAS YOGA
You're guided all the way through class
One of my main focuses for each class is movement to get rid of tension that comes from long busy days. You're guided all the way through class, starting with a mobilizing warm-up to prepare the body for energizing flows and postures.
Everything is taught step-by-step to ensure you're safely coming to the postures. Variations and Yoga blocks are offered so you can take the class at your own pace. Towards the end, we wind down with a guided Savasana (relaxation time).

What to bring
Please bring a Yoga mat with you to class & bottle of water. Covid-19 made us all more aware of how germs are easily spread. Using your own Yoga mat is far more hygenic and helps limit the spread of various bacteria, viruses and skin conditions that can easily be passed.​​
Class styles & what to expect
Beginners class: Suitable for beginners that like working on the essential postures, movements & flows. Find us in the Warwick Room.
​
Foundation Class: Involves postures & flows that go that next stage beyond the essential postures. This is a nice step-up from the Monday Beginner Flow class. Find us in the Main Room at the front of the building.
​
Strong class: Recommended for those that have experience from my other courses, workshops or classes, or have trained with other instructors. This is a strong, energizing class. Find us in the Grimsley Room.
​
Absolute Beginners: If you're a bit nervous about joining a class, head to my Absolute Beginners Workshop and get to know the basics. By the end, you'll know the difference between Warrior 2 to Warrior 3 so you'll feel confident stepping into a class environment.
​
Please note, group classes are not suitable during any stage of pregnancy or injury.
FYI: This is a judge-free Yoga zone!
I know some Yoga classes can be really intimidating and it can make you feel like pants (trust me, I've been to lots of them) but we're a light-hearted, supportive bunch that slaps on dry-shampoo, has a good laugh and everyone works at their own pace.
