Hi Andrew here,
Aside from my usual morning classes I am now teaching evening classes on Wednesday and Thursday night at 5:30pm. The focus for these dynamic classes will be on strength in flexibility in slower formats that allow for relaxation as we enjoy the early dark winter evenings.

If you practice yoga long enough, you'll experience the same pleasure your pets get when they stretch. (George Purvis)

Is Yin yoga the same as Restorative yoga?

Many people confuse Restorative with Yin, but they have completely opposite goals for your body: Yin Yoga is about stretching - You hold passive poses for 3–5 minutes to target deep connective tissues. It may feel intense.

Restorative Yoga is an evidenced based approach to deep rest: You use blankets, bolsters, and pillows to support 100% of your body weight creating a very gentle, passive opening that creates space in the body and deeply resets the nervous system:

💜 Cortisol Crash: Studies show deep relaxation practices directly lower cortisol (your primary stress hormone), shifting your body out of fight-or-flight mode.

💜Brain Reset: It triggers the parasympathetic nervous system ("rest and digest"), which lowers your heart rate and stabilises blood pressure.

💜Better Sleep: Clinical research links regular restorative practices to deeper, higher-quality REM sleep.

💜Pain Relief: Passive resting allows tight connective tissues and muscles to release, easing chronic physical tension.

*Vicki teaches *Rest and Recover* on Fridays at 5.30pm - 6.30pm.
Bookings are essential.

Get a healthy 'high' from yoga! ☺️
Looking for the motivation to try yoga or get back to your mat after time off? Here it is
Yoga rewires your brain, alters gene expression, and reverses cellular aging. Far from a simple stretching routine, cutting-edge clinical trials and neuroimaging confirm that yoga acts as a powerful non-pharmacological drug for the mind and body. It physically alters your anatomy and biochemistry to improve your long-term healthspan (Harvard Health Publishing).
