Our Classes
It's your practice. Don't you forget it.
We offer a diverse range of classes from beginner to advanced. But we never forget it’s YOUR practice. We want you to feel at ease while surrounded by kindness in our beautiful space. All our classes concentrate on keeping the practice safe, finding healthy alignment in synchronicity with breathing, discovering strength from a place within rather than from using force. We aim in creating balance, mental focus, flexibility, and strength, while relieving stress. The practice invites us to be present and focused. It leads us to be, to stay humble and compassionate, to learn every day to live fully.

Next dates:
Monday, 8th June, from 17:15 – 19:15

Guided self-practice in community
Practise at your own pace, with individual guidance and the support of a dedicated practice community.
Each person moves through their practice independently while receiving individual guidance.
This is not a led class. You will practise at your own rhythm, and your practice may be shorter than the full session time.
Whether you have an established practice or are still building confidence with the sequence, you are warmly welcome. During the session, there is individual guidance, refinements, and assistance where appropriate, helping your practice evolve in a way that is safe, sustainable, and meaningful for you.
Arrival is flexible within the practice window. Please arrive within the first 45 minutes to allow sufficient time to settle into your practice.
Practising in this way encourages greater independence, self-awareness, and consistency while still benefiting from the support of a teacher and the energy of practising in community.
Over time, Mysore practice can help cultivate a steady and sustainable relationship with yoga that extends far beyond the mat.

Tuesday
Ashtanga Yoga Level 1
with Carla
18:30-19:45

This beginner-friendly class follows the Ashtanga Vinyasa method, guiding you through part of the Primary Series (Yoga Chikitsa), which is known for its therapeutic benefits.
We will practice the standing, seated, and closing postures at a slower pace, focusing on integrating breath, posture, and gaze to cultivate steadiness, calmness, and awareness of both body and mind.
Most importantly, we will use the practice to cultivate love, kindness, and acceptance, recognising that yoga is a reflection of life, where there is no separation, only union.

Hatha Flow
with Sarah
20:00-21:30

Sarah emphasises practicing mindfully and listening to the body’s intuitive feedback. In her classes, she always refers back to an awareness of the breath. Yoga shall not merely ground and strengthen, but support us to find a peaceful path to our inner essence. She shares her philosophical understanding of yoga with her students, inviting them to lead their awareness from the mind into the space of the heart and to reside in that space.
Friday
Wake Up Flow

Start your Friday with an energizing morning flow to wake up the body and bring clarity and focus to your day.
