Join us for 2 hours of deliciously nourishing yin practice and finish class with hydrating nourishing cold pressed juice by Juice Institute.
Our New Years Tune up practice is an opportunity for you to purify from the holidays, move your body, focus your mind and create intentions for the New Year. For many of us in the yogasphere, the New Year is just a continuation of the work we have already been doing. As yoga practitioners this is a great time to make a recommitment to our practice, let go of what no longer serves us and create a great foundation for the year ahead.
In this 2 hour all levels Yin practice we’ll focus on supporting all of our bodies systems in a nourishing cycle that will leave you feeling refreshed and renewed.

Ten Good Reasons to Practice Yoga
Yoga is for everyone: young or old, male or female, healthy or sick. Yoga can always be adapted to your individual needs, whatever your circumstances.
Even if you are facing many challenges in your life, it is easy to start doing yoga and you will experience instant benefits, such as stress relief. Furthermore, once you begin to practice regularly, yoga will help you live your life with renewed positivity and enthusiasm.
Yoga is safe. When practiced properly (with an awareness of your physical limitations) it is a completely harmless form of exercise.
Yoga needs no special equipment. While there are a few props that might make your practice more comfortable, the only thing you really need in order to do yoga is you.
Yoga both tones the respiratory system and helps you to breathe more fully, deeply and easily (thus increasing your oxygen intake), which in turn, will improve your physical and mental wellbeing.
Yoga improves the efficiency of your body systems, aiding digestion, the assimilation of nutrients and the elimination of toxins.
Yoga improves the quality of your sleep so that, when you wake up, you feel refreshed and full of vitality.
Yoga gives you energy and helps you channel your energy effectively so that you don’t waste it on tension, stress and negativity.
Through practising yoga techniques, you experience a genuine sense of outward tranquillity, which eventually helps you to achieve a deep state of inner peace too.
Yoga is FUN!
WHEN COMING TO YOGA……………………..
Wear loose, comfortable & stretchy clothes that enable you to move easily. Remove your watch and any jewellery.
Go barefoot – this gives you a sense of close contact with the ground and allows the muscles in your feet to operate freely.
It is best to practice on an empty stomach, leave at least 1.5hours after a meal before coming to practice. (If that’s not possible – have something light & easy to digest)
A yoga mat is helpful but not essential; you may like to bring a towel or a blanket.
Yoga is not supposed to hurt! You must be constantly observant and mindful of how you are feeling during class. If you feel unsettled or exhausted during your practice, perhaps you are pushing yourself too hard. Be a little kinder to yourself.
