Our studio is heated to a warm 28 degrees (from September to June) for all classes to allow you to go deeper into your poses in a safe way as well as stimulating circulation and promote sweating, which is great for your skin and for de-toxifying.

Yes, please pre-book your class via our website to ensure you have a space. It's equally important to cancel if you can no longer make it. You must cancel no later than 2 hours before class.

Yes, yoga mats and props are provided free of charge. You can of course bring your own.

A bottle of water is a good idea and a small towel to wipe your sweat.

Lightweight clothing is best and we practise in bare feet. Women tend to wear leggings or shorts and a tank top. Men tend to wear shorts or leggings and a t-shirt or vest

No, sorry. We are a small local studio with limited changing facilities and no shower facilities. The majority of our students live locally and arrive dressed and ready for class, and go home to shower.

We recommend arriving 10 minutes early. Sorry, latecomers can not be admitted.

No, definately not. Some places require strict silence before and after class.... we don't! We actually encourage you to chat to your neighbour, have fun and make a new friend.

No. Our lives are full of stimulation already so our classes aim to provide a purer experience away from any distractions.

Before and after classes the music we play may include devotional music to certain Hindu deities in line with the origins of yoga. The reason this music is used over something more westernised, is that the words in these songs and indeed the names of these deities (Krishna, Shiva, Ganesha ect.) help to remind us of good qualities of living and acting to which they represent, qualities that do already exist within ourselves but that we can be reminded of.

We chant OM to open and close some classes. OM is an ancient sanskrit word that was used by the rishis when they meditated. The chant was shared as an experience rather than something tangible. It's said that OM contains every aspect of the universe and by chanting OM we are gaining awareness of our physical being in the moment and the oneness with others around us. On occasion we chant OM Shanti to close the class. Shanti simply translates to peace, so by doing this chant at the end of class we are wishing peace for all living and non-living things in our universe.

We advise not eating heavy meals two hours before class. If you need to eat just before class, have something light like some fruit and nuts.

If you have an injury or medical condition, please consult your doctor first and inform the teacher before class begins. We encourage you to be your own teacher, so listen to your body and how you are feeling and what your body is telling you. Yoga rewards persistence and hard work, but it is equally important to rest and recover when you need to.

You should discuss this with your doctor before attending a class. If you had a regular yoga practice before pregnancy then it may be suitable for you to continue to do so during pregnancy, adapting certain poses when necessary. However, if you are brand new to yoga, it is recommended not to start with a physically challenging style like our heated dynamic yoga during pregnancy. This is because it will be too much for the body to start finding and strengthening muscles from not having them developed before hand. Please know that our teachers are not specifically trained in pregnancy yoga, so can only suggest basic alternatives in poses for you and you participate in classes at your own risk.
