Monthly workshops on Saturdays
NEXT Session: SAT August 10th 2019, from 1.30pm to 4.00pm
with Sian Pringle
Building a strong foundation from the start is key to longevity in yoga. Our exclusive comprehensive introductory workshop for the absolute beginner with Sian Pringle, one of Vancouver's highest-rated teachers. In this 2.5 hour session you will be introduced to all the basics of a Hatha Yoga practice. You will learn yoga sequences and specific warm ups to prepare the body, we’ll look at some of the classical yoga postures, including safe alignment for your body and simple breathing techniques (pranayama). You will also learn how to use yoga props to deepen your experience in the postures. The workshop will end with a guided relaxation done lying on the floor.
Limited class size and emphasis is placed on building a safe individual practice that works for you in a relaxed and friendly environment.
Drop-in classes
As a complete beginner you can also take any class on our schedule except for the Power & Power flo' classes, which are faster paced and usually more advanced. Be sure to tell the teacher you are a beginner before class. We would suggest starting with an all levels class (Mondays, Thursdays & Saturdays are also with Sian) and then moving onto Power or Flo classes when you are ready. See also our class style guide for help on which classes to choose.
Suitable for everyone without injury. Not advisable for pregnant ladies without prior consultation. Limited class size ensures individual attention.
