Yoga Classes

Yang Yoga – strength and flexibility

Joy teaches a range of dynamic, energetic yoga classes including Vinyasa, Yoga Flow, Power Yoga and Hot Yoga. While each style has its own special character (Hot Yoga is done in a heated room for instance!), they all share one very important thing – they match movement of the body in time with the breath. This creates a deeply calming, almost meditative workout while also building strength, stamina and flexibility. These classes are open to all levels of experience, from the complete beginner to the professional athlete.

Yin Yoga – restorative balance

Yin Yoga is a radically different style of yoga, in which static poses are held for several minutes. Muscles (and mind) remain relaxed while the connective tissues of the body respond to the practice. Props like blocks, pillows and blankets are often used and yogis are encouraged to wrap up warm. It is becoming incredibly popular in gyms and studios around the world as people wake up to Yin Yoga’s profoundly healing and balancing effects. People often report significant improvements in mood after taking these classes.
