Classes

We have been a full time yoga studio for over 13 years and in this time have provided professional, integrated and quality classes, training and workshops for our students.

Yoga`s unique blend of asana ( poses ), pranayama ( breathing ) and yoga nidra ( relaxation ) can help you to become more active and promote an increased sense of physical, mental and emotional weel- being - health in the truest sense of the word.

It works the physical body while soothing and calming the nervous system to promote calmness, emotional balance and an improved sense of contentment.    

Here in Santosha we provide classes based on an integrated practice of the various limbs of yoga. We adopt a non-dogmatic approach, respecting the various traditions which collectively provide a very rich source for personal growth and development.

The various classes will include  general practices` suitable for everyone based on the level of each class and reflect the Studio ethos - Yoga for All!

Lasting 1 1/2 hours each class costs £10 ( £8 for senior citizens and students in full time education aged 16+ years )  and we also offer a number of class card and other membership options.

Yoga gives you an energy boost and releases 'happy hormones' or endorphins which make us feel good and positive about ourselves. Yogas holistic approach to the individual makes it much more than 'exercise'. It recognizes that we are physical, mental, emotional and spiritual beings and seeks to integrate these aspects of our multi - dimensional being to promote and sustain our well-being.

It doesn't matter if you are a seasoned practitioner or a complete beginner. Your stage of life, state of health and level of knowledge are unimportant as the benefits are accessible and universal for everyone!
