My preferred teaching style is combining all of the yoga styles listed below. I believe that each style has its own advantages and disadvantages, and when mixed together can create a beautiful fusion to suit all ages and abilities, while enabling students to learn all aspects of yoga, and allows them to process at a fun and varied way.

In my opinion some styles of yoga focus a lot of their attention mainly on one area; mind and meditation or asanas (yoga postures) and the physical body, and just touch on the other areas briefly, where as I truly believe we need to learn balance therefore a combination of everything is better. It is common to do what you find easy and focus on excelling in that area, when often we need to work on those areas that are slightly weaker to create balance.

Yin is a beautiful, quiet, meditative yoga practice, developed by teacher Paul Grilley. The best way to describe a Yin Yoga class is it is 'slow'; holding yoga postures for several minutes, allowing you to deeply relax and allow gravity to do the work rather than forcing and straining. However, it is not necessarily an 'easy' class, as sometimes the real challenge is working on patience, self acceptance and calming the mind as well as truly stretching the body. This method was created as a way to find comfort during long seated meditations, while working on lengthening the connective tissue, particularly around the joints.

It is a wonderful complement to 'Yang' yoga styles such as Vinyasa and Ashtanga and a great way of finding balance for people who find it hard to sit still!. The more active a person's life is, the more the need for encouraging softness, creating balance and time for yin!

Ashtanga, meaning "eight limbs" is based on ancient yoga teachings and was popularised by Pattabhi Jois in the 1970's. It is a hot, sweaty, rigorous practice style of yoga, that follows a specific sequence of postures always in the same order, which, like Vinyasa yoga, links each movement to the breath. This practice is very physically demanding because of the constant movement from one pose to the next and the emphasis on daily practice.

Whether you already love yoga or are coming for your first class, then this is an experience for you to come and try! In a safe and fun environment, you will learn the beauty of yoga postures working in pairs, and finish off the class with wonderful Thai massage techniques! (Everyone's favourite part!) It combines COMPASSION, CONNECTION, COMMUNICATION AND CONFIDENCE! Which is a great way to deep your knowledge and practice of yoga, with working in 'union' (which is the meaning of yoga!) Bring your partner, friend, buddy, pal, bro, sister, colleague, parent, child, significant other, or someone you just grabbed from the street!,.. or come along alone and meet other like minded yogis!
