Vinyasa Krama Yoga

Vinyasa Krama Yoga is the synchronised movement of yoga poses through various stages in order to arrive at specific goals. This common goal is to progress from simple yoga poses to more advanced asana (poses). Vinyasa Krama helps the practitioner to prepare their body for more advanced poses and sequences by starting with basic asana then building upon those with progressively more challenging asanas.
By the time the practitioner reaches their goal (a more advanced practice), they are more physically and mentally prepared to successfully practice it. Each movement in the Vinyasa Krama sequence is linked to an inhalation and exhalation and each asana becomes a step within the flow, much like that which we experience within the sun salutation. It is an invigorating practice and will strengthen and tone your body quickly

Dynamic Vinyasa Yoga

The Hatha element seeks freedom within breath. The Classical Ashtanga element seeks composure within structure. The Vinyasa Krama element seeks freedom within rhythm. This class starts with a dynamic sun salutation routine which leads into a mixture of balancing and stretching poses, including their vinyasa krama variations. This helps to increase our strength and flexibility and gives the spine and body a complete workout. Each week you will work towards strong and steady inversions like headstand, arm and leg balancing sequences, including all of their dynamic Vinyasa Krama variations. The class level is intermediate, however if you are seeking to lift your practice to this level you are more than welcome to attend, as Vinyasa Krama Yoga will help you along that path.

LEVEL : INTERMEDIATE

Vinyasa Flow

Yin Yoga

Indulge in the slow, calm and mindful practice of yin yoga for the hips, legs, spine and shoulders. Yin is a less active style of yoga and yet a challenging practice as we hold our poses for a few minutes and focus on releasing and relaxing the muscles to work into the deeper connective tissues and fascia. We practice a yin yoga flow to move the spine through all six degrees of freedom whilst freeing into the hips and working into the legs. This quiet and still practice helps to cultivate breath and body awareness and release stresses and tensions from the mind and body. Paula teaches from a functional approach and provides modifications and variations to suit your unique body and help you find your own level of depth and comfort. Weekly classes are available in addition to extended monthly classes.
