Yoga Foundations Course

New to yoga? Or have you been dropping into regular classes but still feel like you're trying to keep up?

This 4-week beginner course over 4 dates Oct/Nov is designed to slow things down, break down the foundations and help you understand what you're doing, why you're doing it, and how to adapt it for your body.

Rather than throwing you straight into a fast-paced class, we'll build your practice progressively, giving you the tools, knowledge and confidence to step into regular group classes feeling more prepared and at ease.

Over 4 weeks, we'll explore:

💫 Week 1 ~ Root to Rise ~ Mon 5th Oct, 7:45-9pm

We'll begin with a brief introduction to the history and philosophy of yoga before exploring how to build strong foundations through the feet, learning how to create stability and awareness in each shape.

💫 Week 2 ~ Bandhas + Breath ~ Mon 12th Oct, 7:45-9pm

We'll explore basic breathing techniques and introduce the concept of bandhas. You'll begin to understand how breath can support your movement and help you feel more connected to your practice.

💫 Week 3 ~ Sun Salutations ~ Mon 2nd Nov, 7:45-9pm

We'll break down Surya Namaskar A + B, exploring the individual postures, transitions and modifications. You'll have time to practice the movements slowly and understand how the sequence comes together.

💫 Week 4 ~ Finding Flow ~ Mon 9th Nov, 7:45-9pm

We'll bring everything together with an introduction to Vinyasa-style practice, learning how to link movement and breath and move through a sequence confidently.

By the end of the course, you'll have:

+A better understanding of foundational yoga postures and alignment

+Tools to modify poses and work with your own body

+A greater awareness of breath and movement

+An understanding of common yoga cues and terminology

+More confidence to join regular group classes
