Class Descriptions

Fascia flow …release stubborn areas of tightness, feel lighter by creating space into which to breathe, and move with more ease. We will pulse through small ranges of movement while engaging our fascia and muscles. Fascia is the connective tissue that holds us together, distributes electricity and fluid throughout the body. Pulsing clears stagnation and improves the flow of lymph which boosts the immune system. This way of practicing can be a great addition to an existing yoga practice or could be a good foundation for beginners.
We will focus on a different part of the body each of the weeks and have time for relaxation and breathwork. Runs for 7weeks. 9th Sep - 21st October. All welcome.

The Magic of Mantra
These monthly classes are a beautiful introduction into meditation using a mantra as
your anchor.
The use of mantra in a meditation process can really help you to quieten the mind and stop it from drifting into unhelpful thought patterns.
It is thought that ancient rishis or sages of India (who were thought to be seers of the
divine truth), were so deeply in tune with nature and the natural order of the universe
could hear mantras being chanted in the fabric of the Cosmos.
The class is open to all abilities and experience.
Sessions are bookable via the SYS website but are not part of the studio membership plans or weekly timetable - you can contact SJ directly for information, via her social media.

Yoga is a practice for your wellbeing. A lot of us think about yoga 'for flexibility' but this ancient practice can offer you so much more. Yoga is for your body, mind and soul. This 6 week beginner course will show you how to use your breath and movement to help you relax and connect and restore. We move slowly and gently - and some of the poses may feel a bit challenging at times, but we work within what our body needs and adapt as we go.

New to yoga or feel a bit unsure? Or, maybe you just love the feel and pace of a beginner class - plenty of people do. We practice most of the classic Hatha foundational poses and flows in a relaxed, accessible way with time to explore what feels right for you. We also try out relaxation, meditation and pranayama (breathing techniques).

Kundalini yoga is rooted in the yogic belief of a dormant energy at the base of your spine. This practice uses dynamic repetitive movement and mantra as a form of active meditation - to awaken and release energy, drawing it up the body - this can help release pent up emotion and quiet that feeling of overstimulation and anxiety. The result is often an uplifted feeling accompanied by a sense of peace and overall wellbeing.
