“After a session of Yoga, the mind becomes tranquil and passive”
BKS Iyengar
Are the Begin classes right for me?
The Begin classes are suitable for any student new to yoga or new to the Iyengar method of yoga. They are also great for anyone coming back to yoga after a break. The Begin classes are designed to introduce students to the foundations of the Iyengar method, where the emphasis is on precision, alignment, and timing.
Do I need to book into the classes I want to attend?
Yes, this ensures that the class has availability and importantly, you will be notified if there is any need for us to cancel the class. View the timetable here.
Can I do a Begin class if I have an injury?
The Beginn classes are designed for students who are generally well and do not present with chronic injuries or illness. Stiffness is not a problem, nor are injuries which still allow you to move freely – just be sure to advise your teacher of any problems you are facing at the beginning of the class.
What equipment do I need to bring to a yoga class?
Just bring yourself. We provide all you need in a yoga class however, you are certainly more than welcome to bring your own mat if you prefer.
Do you have change rooms?
Yes. We have a bathroom that can be used as a change room.
I have an injury or illness but I really want to start yoga – what should I do?
Book in to our Yoga Therapy class. For those keen to start yoga who do suffer from serious injury or illness, we suggest our Yoga Therapy class as an ideal place to start. In a Yoga Therapy class you will have the opportunity to receive one-on-one attention and will be able to get the advice that can help you move forward in yoga. Please see our website for more information on Yoga Therapy. Find out more about Yoga Therapy here.
I would like to put a pause on my Direct Debit – how do I do it?
No problem. We can make changes to your Direct Debit payment, such as changing your pass or putting a pause on your payments while are away.

Can I continue with Yoga if I become pregnant?
Yes, existing students who have already developed a relationship with our senior teachers can continue yoga through their pregancy. Our senior teachers have the training and experience to guide students in their continued practice of yoga.
If I go on holidays or injure myself, can I pause my membership?
Yes, we simply ask for a minimum 7 days notice in writing for all changes (permanent and temporary) to your pass.
