All I have is the present moment

Hatha yoga incorporates a slow flowing and restorative sequence of asanas, pranayama, meditation and deep relaxation designed to align your skin, muscles and bones. This ancient discipline, which has been practiced for thousands of years, is not only hugely beneficial for fitness and vitality, improving flexibility and strength. The tools and techniques mastered through the practice give you mental clarity, focus and self awareness.

Ashtanga Vinyasa practice emphasises tristhana, the three places of attention or action: asana, ujjayi breath and dristhi, which correspond to three levels of purification of body, nervous system and mind. Ashtanga classes guide students through the Primary Series of asanas, simultaneously developing attention to pace, breathing and finer details of the practice.
