Full timetable

Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga isn't on this week's timetable. See the full timetable for similar classes, or get in touch.

Ashtanga Yoga is a dynamic and challenging style of yoga. It follows a prescribed flow of postures (asanas), linked seamlessly with the breath.

It emphasises physical strength and endurance, as well as mental focus and concentration. Ashtanga suits practitioners of all levels who have some experience of movement, and it can have a transformative effect on body and mind.

The benefits of Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga

  • Strength and endurance. The practice works muscles throughout the body, building fitness and stamina.
  • Flexibility and mobility. The flowing sequence stretches and releases tension in muscles and joints.
  • Focus. Moving with the breath brings mental clarity and concentration, and reduces stress and anxiety.
  • Energy and circulation. Many people find it lifts their energy and improves circulation.
  • Alignment. Attention to posture and alignment can reduce the risk of injury.
  • Inner calm. Alongside the challenge, many practitioners find a sense of peace.
