Unhurried, finishing on the floor
Half of this class moves and half of it does not. Maya opens with twenty minutes of slow standing work, enough to warm the hips and shoulders, then brings the class to the floor for supported shapes held long enough to actually let go. It is a small, kind class and people tend to leave quieter than they arrived.
In a typical class
Ten minutes of breath and simple floor movement.
Twenty minutes of slow standing shapes.
Ten minutes of supported reclined work.
Who it suits
People who sit all day. People who have been told to relax and have not found that instruction useful. People coming back after a break, an illness or a long stretch of not much movement. It is also one of the best first classes on the timetable, because the pace never gets away from you.
Props do the work
Bolsters, blankets and blocks are used throughout, not as a concession but as the point. A shape supported well can be held for five minutes; the same shape unsupported lasts thirty seconds and does much less.
What the two halves do
Gentle throughout
Nothing in the first half is demanding.
Props do the work
The floor section is fully supported.
A real ending
You leave having genuinely stopped, not just finished.
Coming straight from work
Bring socks and a jumper for the end. The room cools as you stop moving, and being cold is the fastest way to undo a good savasana.
What regulars say
Bernadette Quinn
A flow class that ends the way a restorative class ends. I come straight from work and by the floor section I have completely let go of the day.

Yes. Drop-in classes and pay-as-you-go class packs sit alongside our memberships, so you can practise as often or as rarely as suits you.
Fifteen minutes before your first class, and around five for every class after that. It gives you time to check in, settle and set up your mat without rushing.

We do. Several of our teachers are qualified in pre and postnatal practice and in therapeutic yoga. Let us know before class so your teacher can adapt the session for you.
