This is fast becoming a tradition - it is that time of the year where some of us head off to the fabulous Palms Spain for our annual retreat and the studio is left in the very capable hands of Lisa and we see the return of the ‘gentle but tough’ Edward.

We are delighted to have Edward back teaching this weekend. He will be teaching the Friday and Sunday classes. For those of you who have never experienced Edward’s classes don’t miss this opportunity.

Regulars you will have to keep your ears open and not slip into autopilot, as each class will not be the sequence you expect.

The classes on each day will match the challenge the regular studio classes set.

Friday 6pm Mix90 - Advanced class
Saturday 9.30am Fast60 - Intermediate class
Sunday 10am Base90 - Suitable for all levels from Beginners to Advanced

Some feedback from students about Edward’s last visit -

‘He is so gentle, so lovely whilst strong’

‘Soft but tough if you know what I mean😅’

‘Nice flow’

‘Great at putting people at ease’

It’s always good to hear a different voice… you never know what you might discover.

Everyone talks about the benefits of yoga and how good it can be for both your body and mind. But what often gets overlooked is that yoga isn’t completely free from the risk of injury either. 🧘🏽‍♂️

Especially if you already experience pain, physical limitations or other health concerns, a good yoga studio should take the time to understand your body, your current wellbeing and your individual starting point. You should be offered modifications and variations that allow you to practise safely and in a way that supports your body.

Because yoga isn’t about forcing yourself into a particular pose or pushing through discomfort. It’s about listening to your body, respecting its boundaries and finding ways to move that feel supportive rather than putting additional strain on it.

A good teacher won’t simply show you how to do a pose. They’ll also help you understand how to adapt it to your body, what may benefit you and what you might be better off avoiding.

Because ultimately, yoga should adapt to your body — not your body to yoga.

More is sometimes more!!

Less Is Not Always More: Why the 90-Minute Base Class Is Superior to the 60-Minute Base Class

In recent years, there has been a strong push towards shorter classes. Our increasingly busy lives make us think we need them. For 15 years, I taught nothing but 90-minute Bikram classes—there was no alternative.

About 10 years ago, I began introducing different class formats and lengths: 60, 75, and 90 minutes. Each class serves a different purpose and offers its own benefits.

Today, though, I want to talk about the Base90 class.

The Base90 is influenced by the traditional Bikram sequence and incorporates the double-set format. The genius of the double set is that the first set gives you the opportunity to open the body, while the second allows you to explore greater depth. There is no need to rush or force anything, making it a much kinder and safer way to progress.

I often describe the Base60 as a “tide-you-over” class, whereas the Base90 is where you really start to see and feel the difference. In the 60-minute version, only the warm-up postures are performed as double sets, and not all of the Base90 postures are included.

One of the biggest mistakes beginners make is assuming they should start with a Base60 and work their way up to a Base90. My advice is the opposite: if the class time fits into your schedule, choose the 90-minute class from the start. You’ll naturally take more breaks when you need them, and the additional repetition in the standing series helps you understand the postures much more quickly.

The benefits aren’t just physical.

A 90-minute class gives you something increasingly rare: uninterrupted time for yourself. It’s self-care, headspace and a chance to step away from the pressures, demands and endless to-do lists of everyday life.

In a world that constantly asks us to do more in less time, sometimes more really is more.

See you on the mat!!
